“I wouldn’t want to be part of any club that would have me as a member.” — Groucho Marx
What if faith sometimes feels like that too?
This week we talk about belonging, rejection, and how Yeshua teaches us to live with lovingkindness on the margins.
Check it out in our most recent sermon from Rabbi David. Faithful on the Margins: Following Yeshua with Humility, Discernment, and Hesed (Matthew 7:1-12)
When George Müller was ten years old, his father caught him stealing coins from his desk and punished him swiftly and harshly. But instead of learning not to steal, young George learned a different lesson: don’t get caught. By the end of his life, George turned into a man who trusted God for every meal, every step, and thousands of orphaned children. For the rest of the story of George’s remarkable testimony, check out our latest sermon from Matthew 6:19-34: “Where is Your Treasure?” By the way, listening to the podcast is great, but if you want the full experience, join us Saturdays at 10AM for our worship service.
What if the most famous prayer in history wasn’t meant to be memorized—but practiced?
When Yeshua teaches his disciples to pray, he simply says: “Pray like this.”
This past Shabbat, we explored the Lord’s Prayer as a deeply Jewish prayer—conntected to the Siddur, echoed in the Talmud, and alive in the hopes of Israel. From Our Father to Daily Bread, we’ll discover how this prayer connects heaven and earth, invites the nations into the kingdom, shapes our hearts, and teaches us to trust God one day at a time.
If you’ve ever wanted to pray but weren’t sure where to begin, this prayer offers a foothold—a simple, relational way to talk with God and be transformed from the inside out. Check out our latest sermon from Rabbi David, “Pray Like This” from Yeshua’s teaching in Matthew 6:1-18.
How do you grow a Torah garden—and keep out those pesky gophers?
In the Sermon on the Mount, Yeshua teaches us how to build a fence around the Torah, guard our roots, and protect what’s sacred before it’s trampled by entitlement, lust, greed, and unforgiveness. For faith that bears fruit, check out our most recent sermon from Rabbi David: “How to Grow a Torah Garden” based on our new covenant parsha, Matthew 5:27–48.
Not one yud is wasted.
From hidden menorahs to the words of Yeshua, discover how both the Torah and the Prophets come to fullness—and how God’s faithfulness reaches across generations to make all things right.
Check it out in this past week’s sermon from Rabbi David on the New Covenant portion, Matthew 5:17-26: “Torah from the Mountain: The faithfulness of God across generations.”
Feeling poor in spirit? Mourning? Hungry for God? Yeshua calls you blessed! The Sermon on the Mount is comfort for the weary and hope for the humble—Torah that transforms us and brings heaven to earth. The Torah from the Mountain calls us to be a different kind of people—humble, merciful, peacemakers, pure in heart. Check it out in this past week’s sermon on the New Covenant Portion, Matthew 5:1-16: Torah from the Mountain: Blessed are the Humble.
What exactly is the good news?
This week we follow the reading cycle to the Gospel of Mark, where we explore this very question.
Straightened paths, submitted citizens, belief and action, righteousness grounded in trusting, and the same way of salvation for all.
Check it out in this week’s sermon on the New Covenant parsha from Elder Scott Moore
The Jewish Gospel of Matthew presents Yeshua as a Powerful Servant that came to operate in authority. While others sought titles and positions, Yeshua brought the Kingdom of God with power and simplicity. In the historic scene of expectation for the Messiah, the Jewish people waited for a political liberator, but God sent a spiritual King that would set the human heart free before setting the nation free. Join us as we dive deeper into the three fundamentals of Messiah’s ministry from Mark 1:14-28 with our special speaker - Pastor Ossimar.
Before Yeshua healed a single person, before He preached a single sermon, and before He called a single disciple—He waited. Thirty silent years. And when the heavens finally opened over Him, the very first thing the Spirit did was not send Him into ministry… but into the desert.
Why?
Because the wilderness reveals our hunger and because Yeshua is walking out another story.
In Matthew 4, the Adversary whispers to Yeshua, “Turn these stones into bread.” But Yeshua answers with the lesson Israel forgot, the lesson Adam and Eve rushed past, the lesson Esau traded away, the lesson Saul failed—and the lesson we still struggle with:
“Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”
We avoid waiting. We fill the silence. We numb the hunger. But in the desert seasons—ankles breaking, plans collapsing, blessings disguised as disasters and vice versa—God does His deepest work.
Gam Zu L’Tovah. This too is for the good.
You may have heard of John the Baptizer, but have you heard of “The Little Dipper”? This week in Matthew 3, John the Baptizer shows up calling Israel to repent — turn around, prepare, get ready for the King.
But then we meet his opposite: the Little Dipper — a made-up “prophet” who says, “Relax… a little sin is fine. The kingdom’s far away.”
John prepares the way.
The Little Dipper prepares excuses.
Join us as we explore real repentance — turning, immersing, confessing — and why John is the coach we need even right now.
The Kingdom of Heaven is upon you!
As a first grader once said, “You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him tap dance.” The way that Yeshua fulfills the expectations and prophecies in the Hebrew Bible is both expected and unexpected. This whole year we are learning about the Gospel of Matthew. We dove into Matthew Chapter 2 this week; let’s see how this very Jewish story fulfills the Israel story, shows the divinity of Yeshua, and transforms our lives.
Ever had your plans blown up — not by failure, but by Heaven?
This is what happened to Joseph, the adoptive father of Yeshua.
One divine interruption turned scandal into salvation.
“Doubt can’t achieve what the Spirit can conceive.”
Even Moses had his doubts: “What if they don’t believe me?” “Who am I?” “But I have a stutter!” “Isn’t there anyone else you could send to Pharaoh?”
The One who formed the mouth and who led us in the desert is with us. Will you go in faith?
We’ve all got surprising sides — collectors of pottery and hanukkiahs, rock painters, pageant queens, airplane-card archivists, even someone who can blow a shofar with their hands. If we’re full of surprises, Kal Vachomer, how much more does Yeshua have surprising facets? This Shabbat we’ll open the first words of John, Mark, and Matthew’s Gospels and uncover the hidden connections to the Jewish people and to the Creator in the Beginning. “The Word was with God and the Word was God.” In the beginning… there’s more than you think.
We woke up.
We got washed.
We got dressed.
Now it’s time to go outside.
🌿 Invite. Include. Rejoice.
How can you ask God to do anything if you are not tithing? “The silver is mine and the gold is mine,” says Adonai Tz’va’ot “The glory of this new house will surpass that of the old,” says Adonai Tz’va’ot, “and in this place I will grant shalom,” says Adonai Tz’va’ot.
Two men went up to pray—one proud of his record, the other pleading for mercy.
Two kinds of fasting—one to be seen, the other to set free.
One counts his good deeds; the other counts on God’s grace.
Yom Kippur asks:
Are we afflicting ourselves… or awakening compassion?
Are we tallying what we’ve done for God… or remembering what He’s done for us?
This year, it’s time to get dressed—
not in sackcloth and ashes,
but in compassion, humility, and love.
The goodness of God draws us to repentance. The crushing of God produces perseverance and faith, so that, “Out of Zion will come forth a Redeemer who will turn ungodliness from Jacob, and He will take away their sins.”
David: God, I want to build Your house!
God: "NO U"
David: Awesome!
IWASGUNNA…

But His building my house is 10 times better

But IWASGUNNA make this here pyramid!

IWASGUNNA build my wealth, IWASGUNNA buy a hat
IWASGUNNA build a kingdom, but it all got currupted
IWASGUNNA do it all before the Lord interrupted
IWASGUNNA
IWASGUNNA
IWASGUNNA sleep in, and coast along
But the Lord woke me up with his Shofar Song!
