Restoring Grace David Fournier

You are the sons and daughters of God-Master of the Universe-The Creator-The Light Source-all the ways we can think and explain Him. God makes the claim that He delights in you and wants to hear and connect with you.  Some of our behaviors in our churches and faith practice reflect the idea that God is a great distance off-and must somehow be conjured up into our presence.  Well, that is simply not true. Join Lead Instructor David Fournier from the Centre for Hebraic Insights as he continues his teaching series on the Zohar in 15 series.  

Israel went through exile-captivity-ups and downs-as God secured His promises to bring them to the Holy Land-the rightful land of the People of Israel.Their example of grit and determination is given to us as a resounding proof of God's love-how He never changes.  Our episode today covers exile and the different types of consciousness of the people during exile. As God never once turned His back on the People of Israel-He will always honor His promises to us as we do the work-the hard work-of transformation at our soul level and our participation in Tikkun Olam-Repairing the World.

Joseph-Yehuda-Jacob/Israel come together in a moment that sets into action the calling out of the Nation of Israel. The Revealing of Joseph is a huge event-and brings us to learn about the different consciousnesses that we must develop on our spiritual journey.  There can be no deliverance without the steps seen and taught here in the end of the Book of Genesis. Join Lead Instructor David Fournier from the Centre for Hebraic Insights as he teaches on this subject.

Are you alive or living? In this episode, Lead Instructor David Fournier from Restoring Grace talks about Jacob, and how he truly lived.  Sometimes we allow ourselves to become separated from the Creator-casting off our connection with Him.  The truth is-the Creator did not go anywhere-we are simply covering up the part of us that is like Him.  We need to see though life-to the time when Messiah returns-and live our life-given to us by God-fully...

The Spiritual Communities across the board are facing challenges from influences at various levels.  Some of these challenges are old issues dressed in new clothes and others are unprecendented challenges at teh very core of religious freedoms. Join Chief Rabbi Hilbrant and Dr. tom Bloomfield on this hot topic... How do the spiritual communities address these issues and when is defiance acceptable? Find out during this episode

Rabbi Hilbrant and Dr. Tom Bloomfield continue the conversation on Jewish/Christian Relations-and the conversation in this episode will address the idea of Jews needing (or not needing) to convert to Christianity once the see and understand Jesus of Nazareth as Messiah

Find out this episode during a round table discussion involving a Chief Rabbi, a Doctor of Theology and University President and a Christian Historian...

Join Rabbi Hilbrant and Dr. Tom Bloomfield as they ask some challenging questions about our current moral and spiritual landscape

As a human race, we have a heart issue.  The Matters of the Heart are addressed through many of the Scriptures, both Old Testament Documents and New Testament alike.  I have the awesome honor of having two scholars, Rabbi Joseph Hilbrant (Judaism) and Dr. Tom Bloomfield (Christianity) to share their thoughts about the heart of man and getting right with God..

When we have a chance to learn something new-try a new experience-our ego often tries to block us.  We think we know all about it-we don't need any advice-we know all we need to know. In this parable from the Zohar we are introduced to a man who tries fine breads for the first time and his reaction is priceless.  Join Lead Instructor David Fournier from Restoring Grace as he teaches on learning and applying wisdom  

The Biblical story of Korach is very difficult for the modern reader to understand.  But there is great value in getting to this portion-to see that rebelling against the chosen of God is not only wrong-it can be deadly.  Join Lead Instructor David Fournier from Restoring Grace as he explores the Story of Korach and why we should all seek to learn a valuable lesson from this....

At the heart of the matter-we are One Soul-and racism, hatred, judgement... are all keeping us from uniting together as brothers and sisters-and bringing on the Return of Messiah!! Is Messiah Consciousness the answer?  Join Senior Instructor David Fournier from Restoring Grace as he teaches on three steps to correction of racism and hate...

Our Ego-often blocks us from the very blessings and equipping we are asking the Master of the Universe to help us.  This story from the Zohar helps reminds us we can learn and benefit from anyone-and often people are sent to us by the Creator to help us see the things about ourself we might be missing... So let's read about donkeys, a driver and a man that got more than a story... Join Senior Instructor David Fournier from Restoring Grace as he continues his Zohar in 15 lesson series

This is Part Two of the Conversation... Join Chief Rabbi Hilbrant and Dr. Bloomfield in a thought-provoking and honest dialogue about Jewish/Christian relations.  There is much talk about this idea-but building blocks must be in place to secure the idea "that in spite of our differences, we can work together in unity".  The conversation is between these two men who have worked together for a very long time on this subject

Disc golf is a great outdoor activity.. and did you know, if you look close enough,,, you will find women out there? Time to celebrate the Ladies of the Course and we are featuring an episode about... It is Ladies Night on Disc Golf News and Views...

Don't dismiss the power of your positive actions in this world! Our acts of kindness we share with others truly powers your life-give a "soul" to what you do and say.  We worry so much about outcomes we freeze in doing good to others. Let's not sweat the utcomes-but instead know that when our heart is in the right place-the outcomes are always positive

Candid Conversations has been a huge success and the show has touched many difficult subjects. We are thankful to the guests that have joined us and the many emails, comments and concerns. This episode will cover the most talked about segments and comments we have been getting on the previous shows.  Thanks for tuning in and listening as the Candid Conversation series continues...

Disc golf offers fun, exctiement, beautiful views-all while walking through all kinds of different parks and natural settings.  Taking care of the course takes more than just picking up trash-it is an important balance of what is already out there and our "footprint" on the landscape.  It is time for a mature conversation on the subject-so here we go...  

Let it go!!! Turns out this was more than a clever song... Our past can be the best tool to educate and help us move into the future-but it also can be a heavy weight around our necks if we bring along anger and wrath on our journey... if your need to be right is your primary driver-than you are in for a long and hard road. Join Senior Instructor David Fournier from Restoring Grace as he teaches on letting go and allowing God to work through all out situations and challenges!! 

While there may be a few "headcases" thay play disc golf, understanding the mental aspect and approach to the sport will make your time on the course better and more enjoyable Daid will be discussing the A.C.E approacj when setting up to take your next shot. Whether you are seeking to get better at the game or trying to learn the fundamentals-how you see and approach each shot will helo you on the way.  Join David and the Disc King for this episode.

Actions (and words) speak volumes.  We proclaim peace, love and understanding as being cornerstone elements of the Gospel Message-but our words and lack of care, concern and kindness show a very different side.  Good people-really Good people-have become voice boxes for the Other Side-The Evil Inclination-under the guise of social media justice.  You can pretend all day long your anger and righteous indignation is justified, but you are only fooling yourself-the homeless are still homeless-domestic violence, sexual assault, poverty-and many other issues you are not raving about are still in full force. Joinn David Fournier from Restoring Grace for a good kick in the shins!!

Disc Golf is growing, with more people playing than ever and even news spots on ESPN. The question is-Will Disc Golf Be For You?

Get out and enjoy a sport that has very few equipment requirements, easy to play and fun!!

With all the hustle and bustle going on around us everyday, it can be easy to forget that we are here to assist God in His ongoing mission of Repairing the World.  More importantly, remembering that each of us has a major role of contribution to play in accomplishing the Return of Messiah. Join Senior Instructor David Fournier from Restoring Grace as he outlines how we each can make a difference each and every day

Rabbi will teach on how crisis can bring about a truer version of ourselves and how Torah helps light a pathway through the darkness

Study to Show yourself approved unto God-Everyone has heard this-said this-but few actually get it.  Study has been beaten down into a shape that simply represents the denominational belief system or systematic theolgy...it rarely includes any practical steps for developing growth or spiritual transformation.  "The Least you Need to Know" method needs to go away. Join Senior Instructor David Fournier from Restoring Grace as he provides a simple plan that will bring on measurable growth in our studies...

Here it is,  "Join us this Thursday on blog talk Radio's "Repairing the World", at 8:00pm PST, with returning guest Rabbi.

Faith-the Cornerstone Element of the Christian Practice-is often taught in ways that are misleading and out of touch with Scriptures.  Certainty in God-in Jesus-in the direction of our lives is more than a magic prayer or service that summons up God to act.  Faith/Certainty is a daily practice-a spiritual practice-that calls on us to work hard on our lives.  Spiritual transformation does not happen on accident. It is a direct result of allowing God to take us through the ups and downs of life and finding the answers to where we need to grow Join Senior Instructor David Fournier from Restoring Grace as he teached on Certainty

Our mission on the show remains the same, the education and awareness of sexual abuse. As we have discussed the apparent or more commonly reported forms of sexual abuse, we will now narrow down behaviors and other forms of sexual abuse an abuser will deploy against a victim. Abusers count on the very possible fact their victim might be unaware of or unable to articulate these behaviors.  These forms of abuse become a powerful catalyst in the scope of controlling the victim in the big picture. Join Rebecca and a special in-studio guest as the series continues on...

How many types of crimes would a victim be asked what were they wearing when the crime happened?  How many types of crimes is a victim asked "So, you allowed it the first time, but objected to it the second time?" Join Rebecca Lynn as she goes over these "myths" and explains the importance of consent at all points (and all people)

" Shalom everyone, Please join us on Blog Talk Radio's "Repairing the World"  this Friday night PST at 8:00 pm as we delve into the Wonders and Mysteries of "Shabbat",  the Jewish day of rest, its prayers, the warmth of family, the traditions, customs, and customary foods.  We close our doors to the cold and enter in to the Divine Presence of haShem!  Join us with Talk Show Host Dr. David Fournier and returning guest Rabbi. Joseph Hilbrant.  Come, join us as we enter the Shabbat together and say Shabbat Shalom, Sabbath Peace be unto you! 

We talked tin our lastepisode about warning signs, and there are still a few to go over. Especially the warning signs of sexual offenders. But we are going to start talking about “now what?” Part 2. What do we do after a disclosure. How do we help the victim and not compromise a case? How do we handle this when the abuse comes from within your own family, which it likely will be. There are definite and outlined reasons victims do not come forward and we are here to help eliminate these reasons. Sexual abuse itself is such a violation to the human integrity and its traumatic. It’s even more traumatic to come out with it in an environment meant specifically to suppress.

Perhaps one of the toughest things to determine-to understand-to find out and address-is sexual and physical abuse of children.  The evidence is overwhelming that these types of crimes cross every type of social groups.  Join Rebecca Lynn as she discusses what signs to look for, the often difficult attempts at prosecution and how we can equip our children to know how to talk to us when uncomfortable situations arise Questions or Comments? email us: dfour26@gmail.com

Spiritual Growth-Transforming into the being that God has for you-is not about beleiving the right things.  It is hard in this world to grow and transform, to push through all the negativity and find certainty in the Creator.  We do ourselves much harm along the way, by investing in fulfilling our desires and not assisting God in His mission of Tikkun Olam (Repairing the World) Join Senior Instructor David Fournier as he teaches on Growing Spiritually

When addressing rape, rape culture and sexual assaults, we often can get lost in terminology. Is there such a thing as Marital Rape? Does it matter what she was wearing? What is a true definition of consent and when does no mean no? Rebecca will address these and many other concerns in this episode. Rebecca will be joined by host David Fournier from Restoring Grace Rebecca Cooper-Bio 17 years work experience in the criminal justice system, retired Major Crimes Police Detective and mother of 3.

Does it matter of you go to church? Does it really matter in the grand scheme of eternity? You will be surprised to hear what the Rabbis, Sages and the Old Testament Documents have to say. There are "appointed meetings", times when repentance and the Glory of God will be revealed. Join Senior Instructor David Fournier as he teaches on being present for the Appointed Times

We all have heard of the Exodus... we have seen the movies-watched the Red Sea part... but few have experienced or tried to undertsand what the Exodus brought about-and how God took this small band of beaten down slaves and shaped them into a mighty nation for His Honor.  Join Rabbi Hilbrant and he starts to unpack the Mystery of the Exodus and its impact on us today

Restoring Grace Radio is hosting this series to cover a very tough and important social topic.. We live in a culture that is clueless to the suffering and victimization of women in the area of sexual abuse, assault and discrimination..we will be hosting a series to address this and many other difficult issues surrounding sexual based crimes, intimidation and shaming of victims...Why? #itsmyfight Rebecca Cooper-Bio 17 years work experience in the criminal justice system, retired Major Crimes Police Detective and mother of 3.

The world, the Unitedd States, our cities and towns, social media.... are simply ablaze...
