Torah Portion Shemot/Names 2012
Messiah in Life
by Justin D. Elwell, Th.D.
3w ago
Shalom friends, as I have been under the weather this week I decided to look back into the archive and find a message to share. This message on the Torah portion of Shemot/Names is from 2012. In this message we consider the calling, refusal, but ultimately the preparation of Moses for his calling. How does this translate for today? How do we, or how have we disbelieved our calling in Messiah? Finally, how do we walk in this new life that He has graced us with? *Not the best audio, sorry.  References: Exodus 1:1; 3:1-10; 4:1, 6-8, 10; Luke 17:12-19.   ..read more

What's it to You?
Messiah in Life

Sometimes we do not recognize when we have returned to old habits of interpersonal response that are contrary to the life of messianic faith. In this episode of Messiah in Life, we look at an exchange between Messiah and Peter to help us "leave our nets" and freely "follow Him." If you are a minister wrestling with worldly measures of success, or a disciple of Messiah struggling with your old man, give a listen, I believe you will be blessed.  References: Ephesians 4:17-32; 1 Peter 2:1-5; John 21:18-23; Acts 3:1-6; 4:1, 7; 5:41.  ..read more

There is a fascinating exchange that happens between a father and Messiah Yeshua/Jesus regarding the man's son. This exchange speaks to the issue of doubt that comes to light during stressful moments in our lives. How do we keep doubt from hardening our hearts, and actually becoming a springboard to deeper love for and devotion to our Messiah? Give a listen.  References: Mark 9:17-27; Matthew 13:58; Mark 6:4-6; Matthew 17:20.  ..read more

Swaddled in Praise
Messiah in Life

What lesson to we find in a swaddled Child? One laid in a manger, in a temporary dwelling, in the city of David. In this episode of Messiah in Life, we look closely at the imagery of the Nativity, Hanukkah, and strangely enough, the feast of Sukkot (Tabernacles). What enduring message can we take away from this season? Give a listen.  References: Luke 2:4-7; Psalm 22:1-8; Psalm 27:4-6; John 1:14; 1 Corinthians 3:16 ..read more

With us is God
Messiah in Life
by Justin D. Elwell, Th.D.
2M ago
The incarnation and birth of Messiah Yeshua/Jesus often gets caught up in commercialization or theological debate, rather than drawing us into the prophetic promise of His birth. In this episode, we unpack prophetic writing, and textual translation and witnesses to bring forth the hope expressed simply: "for unto us a Child is born; for unto us a Son is given." What do we make of this vulnerable Child born in a manger? Give a listen.  References: Matthew 1:18-25; Isaiah 7:14; 9:5; Genesis 46:3-4; Acts 20:28.   ..read more

There are times in the life of a flock when they stay relatively still, not moving very far if at all. How do we understand these seasons in the life of faith? What is going on when it seems that we are not receiving any direction from the Lord? Give a listen! References: John 10:1-3; Psalm 37:23-24, 31.  ..read more
