Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues with the second “Great Command” to love your neighbor or each other. He picks up where we left off in James (Ya'akov) chapter 4, then moves into chapter 5, and finally takes us to 1 John chapter 1. • How do your likes or dislikes affect your relationships with others? What does Rabbi mean by saying we have to “learn each other”? • What does “friendship with the world” mean? • What does “subject yourselves to Elohim” mean? • What does “resist the devil” mean? • How do you draw near to Elohim? How does Elohim draw near to you? • When pursuing Torah, whose feelings are you most concerned about protecting – your friends and family or Elohim? • How would you define ‘sin'? • Do you really understand what the first two verses of 1 John are talking about? Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Rabbi Steve Berkson digs deeper into the book of James (Ya'akov), elaborating on Ya'akov's exhortation to those under his care and guidance in chapters 3 and 4… • Why does Ya'akov say that some should not become teachers? • What does “bridling the body” mean? • Why is the ‘tongue' such a focus in chapter 3? • Are you SNIOP? • What is “Humility and Integrity vs. Hypocrisy”? • How can you be “behaving like a demon”? • How are self-seeking, confusion, and foul deeds related? How can you avoid them? • Why did Ya'akov address some people as “adulterers and adulteresses”?

Continuing in the book of James (Ya'akov), Rabbi Steve Berkson unpacks chapter 2… • To whom did James (Ya'akov) write his letter? How do we identify with them today? • How does one exhibit ‘partiality'? • What's the difference between ‘judging' and ‘judgment'? Why is one less desirable to Abba than the other? • What does it mean that if you've broken one Torah command, you've broken them all? Aren't there different levels and kinds of sin? • Why is the speed of our repentance important? • Can we keep all the commandments in the Torah today? • What are “salvation issues”? • What does it mean to be “judged by the Torah of Freedom”? Are you really free? • Are you a ‘conduit' for everything that Yah desires to distribute to others? • When should you stop calling yourself a believer? • Why wasn't Abraham's righteousness because of his belief alone? • How do belief and works (keeping Torah) function together?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Continuing in the book of James (Ya'akov), Rabbi Steve Berkson breaks down chapter 1… • Does Elohim ‘entice' anyone to do something against His commandments? How and why are you enticed to leave the Path? • Does Yahweh ever change? • What is the definition of a “remnant”? • By what term are we who are in covenant with Elohim called? • When should you not post anything on social media? • What is the first action you should take after praying when faced with a life issue? • How are you to be “swift to hear and slow to speak”? • What is “Failure to Adult,” and why is it an epidemic today? • A Doer of Work?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson breaks down chapter 1 of the book of James (Ya'akov)… • How do we prove our belief? • Of what do we have to prove ourselves worthy? • What is the Creator's “love language”? • To whom did James write his letter? • How is endurance beneficial? • Are you struggling with something? • What is the “Simple Battle of Life”? • Why do you find it challenging at times to walk out the Covenant? • What does ‘double-minded' mean?

Hormone optimization is about more than testosterone levels. In this episode, Dr. Greg Jones sits down with Dr. Devaki Lindsey Berkson, a pioneer in functional medicine and hormone research, to explain why true longevity depends on hormone signaling, receptor sensitivity, gut health, and environmental resilience.Dr. Berkson shares why hormones function as the body's “software,” coordinating metabolism, cognition, immune balance, and cellular repair. She explains why normal lab values don't always reflect optimal function—and why many patients feel fatigued, inflamed, or hormonally imbalanced despite being told everything looks “fine.”Environmental toxins, mineral deficiencies, vitamin D status, and microbiome imbalances are all discussed as modern disruptors of hormonal communication. If you're interested in bioidentical hormone therapy, functional endocrinology, gut-driven inflammation, or precision longevity strategies, this episode delivers a research-informed, systems-based framework for sustainable health optimization.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. As he continues in Ephesians chapter 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson untangles common misunderstandings about disobedience, sin, covenant, and what it truly means to love Messiah Yeshua. • What are “empty words”? • What does it mean to be “a partaker with them”? • Who are you to “have no fellowship with”? From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us to 1 Timothy chapter 1 and explains how some have missed the goal of the command given by Paul to his disciple, namely a clean heart, a good conscience, and a sincere belief, and have turned aside to senseless talk, some even teaching that the Torah no longer applies to us today, just that we believe and love Messiah. Then Rabbi Berkson moves us to 2 Peter chapter 1, where we see Peter telling us that we have been given exceedingly great and precious promises by the righteousness of our Elohim and Savior Messiah Yeshua. Rabbi Berkson also points out that belief in Elohim and His Messiah is just the foundation, and that you need to “add” to that foundation certain things. • What is “Kingdom Access”? Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. The study begins with Ephesians 3:14. In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson expounds on ‘Strengthening the Inner Man'. If your inner man is weak, you will fall short of the finish line and not complete the race. • How do you identify your weaknesses? • What are the “inner man exercises”? What do you do to strengthen those areas? • How do the trials and challenges in your life help you? • Who are the coaches or trainers who encourage and help you in your training?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This series explores the “Two Great Commands’—loving Yahweh and loving your neighbor. Building on 1 Corinthians chapter 13, also known as ‘The Love Chapter,’ Rabbi Steve Berkson explains how love can manifest in many forms, such as patience, putting others above yourself, and responding with kindness to those who mistreat or slander you. “The Love Chapter” states that true love does not behave indecently. What exactly is indecent behavior? Can you find a clear description in scripture? Rabbi Berkson discusses how this concept varies across different cultures, societies, and peoples. He also emphasizes the importance of “Situational Awareness” and why practicing it helps you show love to others. Closing “The Love Chapter,” Rabbi Berkson carefully examines every word, phrase, and verse to help you, even if you’ve read this chapter many times before, gain an even deeper understanding of what it means to love one another. Rabbi Berkson once again breaks down these passages so you can better understand what Yah expects from you, enabling you to act accordingly and receive His blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide Contact MTOI: admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): • Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm • Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

I am thrilled to connect with Dr. Lindsey Berkson today. The audacious and tenacious Dr. Berkson is a distinguished hormone scholar from the highly praised Center for Bioenvironmental Research at Tulane. She is the author of 21 books, and her impact on medical literature continues to grow. With her thoughtful manner and infectious enthusiasm for learning, she educates women about their bodies and health. Our discussion today highlights the importance of supporting the hippocampus and doing targeted cardiovascular exercise. We explore hormone replacement therapy, the timing hypothesis, and why oxytocin is more than just a bonding hormone. We cover endocrine-disrupting chemicals, detoxification, gut health, inflammation, and ways to support immunity, and we examine how oxytocin influences digestion, gut motility, and gut-brain access. We also explain how oxytocin protects our stem cells, prevents gut trauma after colonoscopies, reduces gut inflammation, and supports healthy transit time. Dr. Berkson's new book, The Oxytocin Medicine, is truly an incredible resource and one I will reference often. It is most inspiring! IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: How a shrinking hippocampus alters women's identity and resilience The value of cardio-respiratory fitness and pushing limits for driving resilience How conservative hormone dosing may fail to protect women's health in perimenopause and beyond Women's Health Initiative messaging created a widespread fear of estrogen. Why Dr. Berkson challenges the timing hypothesis  The difference between synthetic progestins and naturally made progesterone Oxytocin and how it functions as a system-wide hormone Importance of detoxification during the perimenopause to menopause transition  Consistent patterns are common among women who age with physical and cognitive resilience.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Providing a framework for this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson offers a brief review of Part 40, which covers the first 9 verses of Romans chapter 12. Then, moving forward, he focuses on verse 10, where we see “in appreciation, giving preference to each other.” Rabbi Berkson explains what appreciation and preference toward your brothers and sisters look like. In this teaching, Rabbi Berkson covers Romans 12:10-16, which offers guidance and encouragement on how to “love your neighbor as yourself.” Rabbi Berkson once again breaks down the words in these passages so you can gain a deeper understanding of what Yah expects from you, so you can follow through and receive the blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide Contact MTOI: admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. On the Holy Day of Shavuot, Rabbi Berkson continues to explore Romans chapter 12, helping us understand the meaning behind the writing to that assembly of that time and what it means for us today. What does it mean to “offer our bodies as a living sacrifice, which is our ‘reasonable service'”? What does it look like to “think more highly of yourself than you should think”? Rabbi Berkson dives deep into verse 3 to explain what that means. What is the “measure of belief” that verse 3 mentions? What are the “gifts” listed in verses 6-8? Are they “spiritual gifts”? Rabbi Berkson once again analyzes these passages to help you better understand what Yah expects of you, so you can do it and receive the blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. During the weekend of Shavuot, Rabbi Steve Berkson offers a preview of the Love and Torah teaching by exploring what Shavuot means in your life – a dedication to living with the belief of who and what Messiah Yeshua truly is and becoming like Him. Then, in 2 John, Rabbi Berkson breaks down the first few verses as John writes to a family he might be discipling. The elder reminds them of the important commandment to walk in love as the Father desires. In verse 7, John warns against associating with certain people who could undermine this family’s faith. Among these warnings, John uses the term “anti-Messiah.” Rabbi Berkson explains this term clearly. What does it mean to “possess both the Father and the Son”? (2 John 9) Next, Rabbi Berkson guides us to Romans 12 and explains the author's intent as we read about presenting ourselves as a sacrifice and offering, not conforming to the “mindset of” the world, and understanding the perfect desire and will of the Father. Rabbi Berkson again analyzes these passages to deepen your understanding of what Yah expects from you, so you can do it and receive His blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide Contact MTOI: admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

What if the most powerful business strategy today isn't AI, automation, or scale… but relationships? In this episode of The Jess Larsen Show on Innovation & Leadership, Jess sits down with serial entrepreneur and investor Noah Berkson to talk about the surprising power of real human connection in a digital world. Noah shares how he went from a self-described terrible student with ADHD to building and exiting multiple companies—including a recent sale of his farmland marketplace—by focusing on relationships, curiosity, and relentless momentum. The conversation explores why in-person gatherings still outperform online networking, how Noah built a reputation as a “super connector,” and why generosity and introductions can unlock opportunities that strategy alone never will. They also dive into lessons from Noah's entrepreneurial journey—from selling companies and investing through Austin Capital to launching curated events like Outcove, designed to bring extraordinary people together in ways that spark real collaboration. If you're building a company, investing, or simply trying to create more meaningful opportunities in your life, this episode is a powerful reminder: the right relationship can change everything.

Rabbi Steve encourages adopting a perspective similar to Yeshua's, focusing on the ultimate prize and the value of each moment.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. What does the Body of Messiah “struggle with” when putting into practice loving your Elohim and loving your neighbor?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. As he begins this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings out the big guns, challenging you to understand and take action on what you really struggle with – you. • Why do you seem to struggle with your relationships and with yourself? Rabbi Berkson takes us to Philippians 2 to unpack what the Apostle Paul wrote to the assembly in Philippi about how they should conduct themselves in his absence. Paul exhorts those in that assembly to take on the mind of Messiah Yeshua, considering others better than themselves in humility and with awareness of others' needs. • Are you aware that what you do at any given moment may create an adverse condition for somebody else? • Are you giving to others and the Father the kind of attention necessary for a flourishing relationship? • What is meant by “leadership serving” and “submissive serving”? • What are the differences between unity, uniformity, and conforming? • Did Messiah Yeshua or His Apostles ever make the message of the Kingdom “palatable” for their listeners? • We all have our own emotional preferences, but when can those be a bad thing? • Are you the kind of person Yahweh can ‘trust' with forever? • Is there grumbling, complaining, and disputing in the Body of Messiah?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. In this teaching, Rabbi Berkson clarifies a couple of things, including the authority given to the husband in Scripture. It seems that some people misinterpreted what Rabbi said in the last teaching, to the point that it could be very troublesome in some marriages. So Rabbi Steve takes the opportunity to give some “Covenant-Live Coaching” for married couples, those looking to be married soon, and those who should not be in an intimate relationship yet, including teenagers. Then, moving into Ephesians chapter 6, Rabbi Berkson addresses the children and “servants”. Which commandment is for the children, and which is the only one with a promise? Could this commandment have a deeper, more far-reaching interpretation? Paul wrote to the fathers not to “provoke” their children…what does this mean? Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

What if your mood swings, anxiety, sleep issues, or loss of motivation aren't just "getting older?" What role does oxytocin really play in midlife, and why has it been overlooked for so long? In this episode, I'm joined by the brilliant hormone scholar Dr. Lindsey Berkson, and we dive into a part of menopause that almost no one is talking about—what's happening in your brain. We explore how hormones act as the body's Wi‑Fi system, and what happens when that signal gets disrupted. Could environmental toxins be hijacking not just estrogen and progesterone, but oxytocin too? And if so, how might that impact connection, libido, blood sugar, digestion, or even depression? This conversation gets bold, nuanced, and deeply eye-opening. Dr. Berkson also challenges mainstream narratives around hormone therapy. Were we misled about estrogen and breast cancer? Why do some women struggle with HRT while others thrive? And could detoxification and nutrient status be the missing link? If you've ever wondered why your body isn't responding the way you expected, you won't want to miss this one! In this episode, we uncover: How oxytocin impacts mood, sleep, libido, and connection in midlife. Why environmental toxins may disrupt your hormonal "Wi‑Fi." What makes some women struggle with hormone replacement therapy. How oxytocin supports blood sugar, digestion, and pain relief. Why estrogen and progesterone are more protective than you've been told.

Love and Torah—what's the link? This series explores the “Two Great Commands’: loving Yahweh and loving your neighbor. Building on Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson starts with verse 18, discussing “emotional preferences” and how they can either help or hinder your walk in Torah. Moving to verse 22, he encourages husbands and wives to understand the roles of marriage as outlined by Elohim. Rabbi Berkson carefully analyzes these passages to deepen your understanding of what Yahweh expects, guiding you to fulfill these expectations and receive His blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app Follow MTOI: https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

Love and Torah—what's the connection? This series is based on the “Two Great Commands’: loving Yahweh and loving your neighbor. Continuing with Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson highlights how Messiah Yeshua clarified the scriptural meaning of “love your neighbor as yourself” by adding, “love one another as I have loved you” (John 15:12). What does it truly mean to be ‘walking in darkness’? How can Yahweh see that you hold Him in importance? What institution has He given us that serves as a model for these relationships? How are love and time interconnected, and what exactly is a “generational curse”? Rabbi Steve shares several personal stories to illustrate common issues we all face as we navigate our vertical and horizontal relationships. Once again, Rabbi Berkson breaks down these passages to deepen your understanding of what Yahweh expects so you can fulfill it and receive His blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Continuing in Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson reveals the “two main areas of our existence.” This concept has much to do with the meaning of our existence and how we treat each other, according to scripture. From verse 13, the word “reprove” or “convicted” is further defined, at the request of many. What are the fruits of darkness? (verse 11) What did Paul mean when he wrote, “wake up, you who sleep”? (verse 14) To whom was he referring? How does one do that? How can you know if you're one of those who need to wake up? How does Elohim expect us to walk before Him? (verse 15) Rabbi Berkson clarifies what it means to walk “exactly.” To what are we compared if we do or don't “walk exactly”? Many ask Rabbi Berkson if he would take them “deeper” in their walk. Their definition of “deeper” is somewhat different, so he corrects and redefines what “deeper” really means. Do you know when you actually have a problem or just an undesirable challenge? Rabbi Berkson brings much-needed wisdom to this topic that just might give you some relief. Do you know what the phrase “redeem the time” refers to? Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. In Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues teaching us how to love each other. Stopping at verse 1, he expounds on becoming imitators of Elohim as dear children. In verse 2, we are exhorted to walk in love as the Messiah also loved us, giving ourselves to others as a gift to Elohim. Do you want to send up a “sweet-smelling aroma” to Yahweh? Learn to serve others. In verses 3 and 4, we see a list of behaviors that should not even be named among the Body of Messiah. Rabbi Berkson takes some time to clarify one of those behaviors – uncleanness. • What do these behaviors have to do with loving each other? In verse 5, there is something we are expected to know – what is it we should know? Why should we know it? In verse 6, Rabbi Berkson asks why Paul would write about “empty words”. What are they? Why are we cautioned about them? How have some teachers misconstrued the meaning of “empty words”? How do they affect our inheritance in the Kingdom of Elohim? In verses 7-10, Rabbi Berkson asks, “Who are you trying to please?” Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Then, in verse 2, we are exhorted to walk in love as the Messiah also loved us, giving ourselves to others as a gift to Elohim.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Continuing our journey through the second of the Two Great Commands, ‘love your neighbor', Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Luke 6:38, where we see Messiah Yeshua continuing to show the contrast between what Rabbi Berkson calls “the Below” and “the Above”. He points out that in order to please the Father, you must be aligned with “the Above”. A component of loving Yahweh and your neighbor is giving. What does that mean, though? Rabbi Berkson clarifies how, when, and why to give. He also points out an incentive to give, noting that whatever we give will be returned, pressed down, shaken together, and running over. Rabbi Berkson uses his trip to a Baskin-Robbins™ ice cream store to make the point. In Luke 6:39-40, Messiah Yeshua tells a parable about the blind leading the blind. Rabbi Berkson cautions about where and from whom you get your information as you walk in Torah observance. There's a lot of misinformation out there that presents itself with authority. In verse 41, Yeshua teaches about the plank in your eye and the splinter in your brother's eye. Rabbi Berkson explains how some people take Torah knowledge and use it as a weapon to try to “help” others with their walk. “Correction can only happen correctly in the right relationship.” Then in Luke 6:47-49, Rabbi Berkson tells us that our lives are like building a house. Are we building on the correct foundation, or without one? The key is whether or not we are listening to and doing the words of Messiah. Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Rosh Chodesh (the new moon) is a time marker for honest self-examination and goal setting. Each new cycle is a chance to look back without self-condemnation, learn from what happened, and plan specific changes going forward. Life is framed as a transformational process with a clear target: becoming like Yeshua, measured in seven interconnected areas—spiritual, financial, physical health, relationships, mental health, emotional health, and community. Rabbi Berkson insists that you can't ignore the “other six” and claim to focus only on the spiritual, because problems in health, money, emotions, or relationships will distract from spiritual growth and spill over into each other. The practical advice is to rank these seven areas from 1 (worst) to 7 (best), then prioritize working on the area that is “bleeding” the most. That means studying why you struggle there, defining what “fixed” looks like, seeking out resources and experts, and being willing to work consistently, including retaking the “Level Up” class as a launchpad rather than a one-time fix.A key theme is mindset: become an expert in your problems, seek workarounds when limitations can't be removed, and adopt Yeshua's perspective of enduring current discomfort for future gain. Rabbi Berkson also emphasizes the importance of participating in community life—attending events, being friendly rather than passively waiting for others, and building genuine relationships. Ultimately, adult maturity in Messiah is defined as fully owning where you are and taking responsibility for where you go next across all seven areas of life.• Marking the movement of time• The journey of transformation • Time to “Level Up” in the seven areas of your life• Once is not enough • Become an expert on your struggles• I just want to focus on the spiritual• The seven areas of life are cross-effective • Ranking the seven areas for improvement • Thriving within / Find a workaround• There are proper levels for all emotions • Developing and growing into a community/family• The Level Up program will answer these questions Subscribe to take advantage of new content every week.To learn more about MTOI, visit our website, https://mtoi.org.https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwidehttps://www.tiktok.com/@mtoi_worldwide You can contact MTOI by emailing us at admin@mtoi.org or calling 423-250-3020. Join us for Shabbat Services and Torah Study LIVE, streamed on our website, mtoi.org, YouTube, and Rumble every Saturday at 1:15 p.m. and every Friday for Torah Study Live Stream at 7:30 p.m. Eastern time.

Rabbi Steve Berkson would like to introduce Mr. William Jackson to the MTOI family. Among his many abilities and talents, Mr. Jackson assists Rabbi Berkson with administrative tasks, sings in the Praise Team, and is an accomplished speaker and teacher. In the Gospel of John, chapter 15, Messiah Yeshua gave His disciples final instructions before His execution by the occupying Romans. He told them emphatically, “Stay in Me,” because they could do nothing on their own (John 15:4). What does it mean to “stay in” Messiah? How do we stay connected to Him? Why is it so hard to stay in Him? Why is it so important to stay in Him? To connect the concept of “Stay in Me,” Mr. Jackson takes us to Matthew chapter 25 and expounds on the two parables the Messiah taught there – the Ten Virgins and their lamps and oil, and the man who gave his servants his possessions to invest while he was on a trip. Mr. Jackson offers insights into these parables that few have heard before. You will be encouraged and strengthened by this powerful teaching.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Continuing our journey into the second of the Two Great Commands, ‘love your neighbor', Rabbi Steve Berkson turns to Luke 6:20, where he examines the event known as the Sermon on the Mount. Messiah teaches His disciples, contrasting life in this world (the below) with life in the heavens (the above). • Do you feel blessed when others mistreat you because of your faith in the Messiah? • Are you able to look ahead to the joy that is coming? Can you practice delayed gratification? • How can it be a bad thing when people speak well of you? What people? • How is it possible to love your enemy as the Messiah taught us to? Were you ever an “enemy of Elohim”? Didn't He love you when you were in that state?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Some of the topics covered in this teaching: • John 14:12 – Messiah Yeshua says, “He who believes in Me will also do the works that I do, and even greater works he shall do because I go to my Father.” What “works” is Messiah referring to? • John 14:13 – Can someone ask for something ‘in His Name (authority)' if that one is outside the authority of Messiah? • John 14:16-17 – Do you understand correctly what this “Helper” and the “Spirit of Truth” are? Is it another being? • How does the Christian organization “Mock Messiah” without actually intending to? • What is the one thing that defines those who are part of the Body of Messiah?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This series explores the “Two Great Commands’: love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Key topics include: • How does Messiah's statement, ‘I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life,’ relate to Torah observance? • What role does ‘to know' play in your relationship with the Creator and others? • What truly defines being a disciple? Is it merely a student/teacher dynamic? • Does Messiah align with your expectations? Does Yeshua fit your paradigm of Messiah? Is the Creator what you think He should be? And what about the Holy Spirit, your leadership, or teachers? Do your preconceptions influence how you perceive their interaction with you and humanity? • Has current worldly life disturbed your shalom/peace? Have you studied your Bible to understand what lies ahead in challenging times? When you entered into a covenant with the Creator, did you understand what that entailed? • What does it mean when someone says, ‘He knows my heart…’ about the Creator? Rabbi Berkson shares his pet peeve to shed light on this. Rabbi Berkson revisits these passages to help deepen your understanding of Yah's expectations, guiding you to fulfill them and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. How does the Creator define our relationship with Him? Continuing in John chapter 15, Rabbi Steve Berkson explores the ‘Love/Hate' aspects of our walk. Rabbi Berkson points to verse 18, where the Messiah, out of love, tells His disciples and us that if He was hated and rejected by the world, then we would be hated and rejected too. Why would “the world” hate you? What or who is “the world”? What does the movie, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, have to do with us and “the world”? Then, moving into John chapter 14, Rabbi Berkson clarifies what Yeshua meant when He said, “I go to prepare a place for you…” You should be very excited when you hear what Rabbi Berkson has to say about that.

Love and Torah—what's love got to do with it? This series explores the “Two Great Commands': loving Yahweh and loving your neighbor. What does John 15 reveal about Yah's kingdom structure? How does John 15 connect to Genesis 1's creation account? What was the first instruction given to humanity? When Yeshua told His disciples to keep His commands, which ones did He mean? Did Messiah add to Torah? In John 15:15, Yeshua told His disciples they are no longer servants but friends. What is the difference between a servant and a friend? How do we define 'friend'? Since Messiah said this to His disciples, how does it apply to us today? Rabbi Berkson carefully analyzes these passages again to help you better understand what Yah expects of you—so you can do it and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Beginning this teaching in John 15:5, Rabbi Steve Berkson explains what Messiah Yeshua meant when He was exhorting His disciples to “stay in Me and He in them,” and how that statement could also be understood as, “if you are in covenant with Me.” Without the Spirit of Messiah (His intrinsic nature) in us, it is impossible to be in covenant with Him and His Father. • What is Covenantal Fruit? Moving on, Rabbi Berkson expands on a crucial point for developing a correct mindset when dealing with those around us, centered on the phrase “he is broken off and thrown away.” This leads him into passages in Matthew 13 and Romans 11 that were not in his notes. • What is the role for the Kingdom that surpasses all of our ‘pay grades'? • Is your being considered a “darnel” or a “tare” predestined? • Do you hold preconceptions about what leadership should look or sound like? What's the danger in that? Rabbi Berkson does a “reset” of a ‘faith idea' most of us have been taught throughout our lives, specifically the notion of “ask whatever you wish and it shall be done for you.” What is the terrible word that precedes the Messiah's statement about ‘asking'? Toward the end of the teaching, what started as a side note turned into an inspiring life-coaching moment as Rabbi Berkson discussed being unequally yoked, then shifted focus to those who are single and looking for a mate. A must-watch! Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages to give you a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah—what's the link? This series focuses on the “Two Great Commands"—loving Yahweh and your neighbor. While many groups claim to believe in the Creator and His Messiah, they often hold differing views. Everyone agrees love is vital, but what does it look like in practice? What actions does it involve? In this series, Love & Torah, Rabbi Steve Berkson offers straightforward biblical insights into these questions. After finishing his study of Psalm 119, which highlights loving Elohim, Rabbi Berkson now turns to how to love others. The Gospel of John, chapter 15, serves as an ideal starting point, as Messiah Yeshua uses agricultural metaphors to teach His disciples about the relationship He desires among believers. • What is the “gap” between the Gardener and the Vine? • What does pruning mean? How does it relate to you? • If Messiah Yeshua calls Himself the “True Vine," could there be false vines? • Why did Messiah Yeshua say, “Stay in Me"? • Why does verse 15:3 mention being clean because of the Word? • What is a direct download from the Ruach? • Do you need to pray before doing anything? • What is “Vertical Awareness”? Rabbi Berkson once again analyzes these passages in detail, helping you gain a deeper understanding of what Yah expects and how you can fulfill it to receive blessings.

Love and Torah—what's the connection? This series explores the “Two Great Commands'—loving Yahweh and loving your neighbor. In Psalm 119, starting from verse 159, Rabbi Steve Berkson reveals a ‘truth' in King David's repeated pleas to Elohim to “revive” him because he loves Elohim's commandments. Do you feel the need for revival? Romans 10:4 mentions that “Messiah is the end of the Law for righteousness…" in some translations, but does this imply the Law's end, or does the word 'end' have a different meaning? Does 'forever' truly mean forever? Rabbi Berkson challenges the idea of forever, explaining his perspective. Daily life provides evidence that the Brit Hadasha (New Testament) is true—do you know what these signs are? As you strive to become like Messiah Yeshua, what is the most influential factor in your life? Rabbi Berkson again carefully analyzes these passages to deepen your understanding of what Yah expects, so you can act accordingly and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's the connection? This study series is centered around the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Psalm 119, verse 150, continues this teaching, where Rabbi Steve Berkson explains that those who pursue mischief have a different agenda than Yahweh and are far from His Torah. These individuals lack an intimate relationship with The Creator. They may outwardly do what is right, but their hearts are far from Him. Rabbi Berkson also explores the distinction between “mercy” and “grace/favor,” providing a clear understanding of these terms. King David, the psalmist, wrote about those who “have not sought Your Laws” and called them “the wrong ones.” Do you seek His Laws? Lashon Hara, Hebrew for “evil tongue,” is a term many people are familiar with but may be confused about its true meaning. Rabbi Berkson delves into the meaning of this term and its impact on your life and the lives of those around you. Rabbi Berkson offers some of the best life coaching available as he explores the intricate world of human relationships, including dating, marriage, and raising children. He highlights relationship attributes such as “default expectancy” and “understood expectancy,” helping you understand how these attributes can affect you. Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages, providing a deeper understanding of what Yahweh expects of you, enabling you to fulfill His expectations and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This series explores the “Two Great Commands': love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Focusing on our hearts and minds towards the Creator and His Torah, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues our journey through King David's writings in Psalm 119. Starting at verse 145, he highlights how David links petitioning God with explaining why we seek His help and why we believe He should answer. Rabbi Berkson questions whether, when we call out to the Almighty, “Answer me,” we can honestly say, “I observe Your laws.” The Creator initially made us to receive from Him. Through faith in Messiah Yeshua and living righteously, we become a ‘new creature' that moves from earthly, basic things to heavenly ones. This ‘new creature' learns to be a ‘giver,' like the Almighty. What do Jews and Christians agree on? What does Yahweh desire from you? Rabbi Berkson again breaks down these passages to deepen your understanding of Yahweh's expectations, so you can fulfill them and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Moving forward in Psalm 119, Rabbi Steve Berkson has a few questions for us; When you see people not guarding the Torah, what is your reaction? (Psalm 119:136) What if you never got to see what happens to those who don't listen to Elohim? (Psalm 119:138) How has Christianity confused us regarding “salvation”? Why did Elohim allow all that horrible stuff to happen to Job? Why do you want eternal life? Are you trustworthy with it? Do you really understand what that life will be like? What is Yahweh's “Love Language”? Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

We have a mashup episode today with Dr. Lindsey Berkson and Dr. Scott Sherr sharing their insights on the powerful role progesterone plays in overall health and its critical connection to the brain and nervous system. Dr. Berkson highlights how progesterone supports brain function, immunity, cardiovascular health, nerve repair, and gut integrity and explains how chronic stress and environmental toxins contribute to widespread progesterone deficiency, even in young people. She also challenges outdated hormone practices and stresses the importance of maintaining optimal levels throughout life. Dr. Sherr clarifies how progesterone enhances the calming neurotransmitter GABA, explaining that as progesterone declines, GABA activity drops, leading to anxiety, sleep issues, and mood changes. He recommends natural ways to support GABA and highlights the benefits of using safe, plant-based modulators instead of alcohol or sedatives that deplete GABA and can cause dependency. Join us for expert advice on balancing hormones, calming the nervous system, and supporting your body through hormonal transitions.
