There is certainly such a thing as righteous anger. Jesus demonstrates it when He comes to the temple and encounters many money changers who are more interested in having a market place than a place of worship. We can further infer from Jesus’ comments, and basic marketing principles, that the prices were high based on … Continue reading Sometimes and Angry Response Is Appropriate
Once again, I am focused on Yahweh’s appointed time of Sukkot, or Feast of Tabernacles. It is a fun celebration that reminds us how God led His people out of bondage in Egypt and looks forward to the return of our King, Yeshua, when He will dwell among us again. Today I am highlighting two … Continue reading Embracing Sukkot by Increasing Our Understanding

Thanksgiving is a great example. It started as a way to come together as a nation to give thanks to the one true God. Now, … Continue reading Explore and Observe Yom Kippur
Over the course of my life, I have spent a significant amount of time in Catholic, Baptist, and evangelical churches. None of the ones I attended ever even came close to teaching about YHWH’s appointed times, or Mo’edim. They seem determined to stick to popular man-made holidays commonly celebrated by Christians and non-Christians alike. As … Continue reading Yom Kippur – The Day of Atonement
Growing up a Christian in the United States, I was never taught about the biblical holy days that Yahweh calls His people to observe and celebrate.

I found it … Continue reading Observing Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets) Draws Us Nearer to God
