Using the Exodus story as a powerful metaphor, Rabbi Steve Berkson beautifully guides us through the journey from slavery to freedom. This message encourages us to believe in the possibility of change and deliverance, inspired by the Israelites' escape from Egypt. It reminds us that real deliverance involves personal growth, not just external help. From Romans chapters 6 and 7, Rabbi Berkson expounds on the internal struggle between the law of the flesh and the law of the mind, emphasizing the importance of winning the battle of the mind for true freedom. Using analogies and biblical references, he illustrates this struggle and highlights the need for us to actively choose to follow the law of righteousness rather than the law of sin.From Slavery to Freedom (Freeing Your Mind) | Part 3• Intro/Review• Continuing Step 3 - I shall redeem you• Romans 6:16 – You are servants to whom you obey• Romans 6:1-6 – Shall we continue to sin?• Romans 6:7-10 – Previous wrongs were pardoned • Romans 6:11 – Dead to sin, but alive to Elohim• Romans 6:13-15 – You are not under the law, but under favor• Romans 6:16 – Two sets of laws? • Romans 6:17-19 – Because of the ignorance • Romans 6:20-23 – Free from righteousness? • Romans 7:14-25 – Discovering the two sets of laws• Romans 7:15-16 – I don't know what I'm doing • You sicko! • Romans 7:20-23 – Kill that zombie • Romans 7:24-25 – Messiah Yeshua revealed the reality• What's your excuse? • You will serve somebody • Will you be judged approved or not?• Two different voices• You can win that fightListen to the Afterburn tomorrowSubscribe to be notified of new content each week.Learn more about MTOI:https://mtoi.orgThe MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-appFollow MTOI:https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwidehttps://www.tiktok.com/@mtoi_worldwide Contact MTOI: 

In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the fifth through eighth components of authentic teshuvah: worry, shame, humility of heart, and humility in action. Repentance is not merely about regretting the past and committing to change; it also requires a healthy concern for the future. A person should never become overconfident in their spiritual standing. The Mishnah teaches, "Do not trust yourself until the day of your death," reminding us that spiritual growth is an ongoing journey that requires vigilance, self-awareness, and constant renewal. The episode then focuses on the powerful role of shame and accountability. Rabbi Wolbe explains that while people often hide their mistakes from others, nothing is hidden from Hashem. Healthy shame is not destructive; rather, it awakens a person to the reality that they have fallen short of their own potential. This awareness leads naturally to humility. The more a person appreciates the gifts, talents, and opportunities Hashem has given them, the more they recognize how much more they are capable of accomplishing. True humility is not thinking less of oneself—it is recognizing that one's achievements are still far below the greatness they were created to attain. Rabbi Wolbe concludes by distinguishing between humility in the heart and humility in action. Genuine repentance expresses itself through behavior: speaking softly, accepting criticism without defensiveness, avoiding arrogance, and carrying oneself with dignity and modesty. A truly humble person is not focused on impressing others but on living up to the expectations of Hashem. The process of teshuvah ultimately guides a person toward a broken yet hopeful heart—a heart that recognizes its shortcomings while remaining inspired by its limitless potential for growth. _____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on September 29, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 17, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Picture what it would be like to lose everything in one fell swoop. Your house burns to the ground. The stock market plummets, and all your money is gone. Worst of all, your children fall ill and die. Suddenly, you've lost not only your material possessions, but your family, too.When people refer to someone as having “the patience of Job,” they say that for a reason.Job was a man of immense wealth, the richest man in the region, and was the father of 7 sons and 3 daughters he loved dearly. He was also a faithful servant of the Lord, and grateful for every blessing.In a terrible turn of events, Job lost his fortune in a single day. His crops, property, livestock, and servants were gone. Most devastating of all, Job lost his children. But Job didn't blame God. He accepted that God had a plan for him, and was patient as he waited for the Lord to reveal that plan. He knew that sometimes bad things happen to good people, and he continued to praise the Lord in the midst of trial.Exodus 14:14 says, “The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still."Job lost everything, but he didn't take matters into his own hands to seek justice for what he had lost. He fell to his knees and worshipped the Lord, and then he was still. In the quiet of his soul, Job knew God had a plan, and in the end, God restored to Job twice as much as he had in the beginning.A godly man is patient.Let's pray.Lord, waiting is hard to do. Waiting for an answer. Waiting for resolution. Waiting for things to get better. Restore peace and patience as we grow in faith and learn to wait on you. We trust you.

In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the third and fourth stages of genuine repentance: sorrow and action. True teshuvah requires more than intellectual acknowledgment of wrongdoing. A person must feel genuine pain over the damage caused to their relationship with Hashem. Just as people experience deep anguish over financial loss, broken relationships, or personal hardship, they should feel profound sorrow when they recognize that their actions have created distance between themselves and their Creator. The purpose of this sorrow is not self-punishment but the restoration of closeness with Hashem, who continuously showers kindness upon us even when we fall short. Rabbi Wolbe explains that the depth of a person's repentance is often measured by the depth of their regret. The more a person appreciates Hashem's endless love, generosity, and patience, the more painful it becomes to realize how they may have misused those gifts. This emotional response reflects the purity of the soul, which naturally longs to reconnect with its Divine source. Teshuvah is fundamentally about repairing a relationship, and sincere remorse demonstrates how much that relationship truly matters. The episode then introduces the next stage: transforming repentance from an internal feeling into external action. Regret in the heart is essential, but it must eventually be expressed through tangible change. Throughout Jewish history, fasting, tears, altered routines, increased prayer, and visible acts of humility have served as physical expressions of repentance. Rabbi Wolbe explains that these actions help a person internalize the seriousness of their mistakes and demonstrate a genuine commitment to growth. The lesson concludes by highlighting the role of the eyes and the heart as gateways to both holiness and temptation. Tears, introspection, and disciplined action become tools for cleansing the soul and rebuilding one's connection with Hashem. _____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on September 29, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 16, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

What if the key to understanding the Bible is to read it like music? In this episode, we talk with Alastair Roberts about his book Echoes of Exodus, co-written with Andrew Wilson. He began this book as a 40-day Lenten reflection that grew into something much bigger. This episode provides a practical lens for reading Scripture by recognizing “echoes” — call-backs, allusions, and patterns — that link Exodus to the rest of the Bible's story of redemption. Exodus is the main theme that courses through the narrative of Scripture, connecting what may seem like isolated stories into an unfolding symphony of music. If you've ever felt lost reading the Old Testament and feel like the Bible doesn't make sense, this conversation gives you the tools to start hearing it that way.

God judges Egypt's firstborn while providing Israel a way of rescue through the blood of a lamb. The Passover lamb served as a substitute, bearing the judgment that would have otherwise fallen on the people. God then exalts Israel by delivering them from slavery and providing for them in abundance. He establishes Passover as a lasting reminder that His people belong to Him, redeemed by the blood of the lamb.

https://square.link/u/UHRU92rp - Donate HereToday's reading begins a new journey through the tabernacle in Exodus 25. Before God gives the details of the structure, He calls for willing hearts to bring an offering—not because He needs anything, but because He invites His people to participate in the place where His presence will dwell. The tabernacle begins with generosity, obedience, and the stunning mercy of God choosing to live among His people.Exodus 25 then points us to the heart of worship: the ark, where God's presence would reside; the table, where fellowship would be pictured; and the lampstand, where the light would always burn. Every detail matters because God's presence matters. So today, read Exodus 25 with fresh eyes: be willing, be obedient, and remember that the God who once dwelled in the tabernacle now dwells with His people through Christ.

Exodus 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: 10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: 11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.This is the text from the Westminster Larger Catechism for the Chapel Library - William Gouge's name is attached as a representative of the entire assembly.

Tuesday, 16 June 2026   just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many. Matthew 20:28   “Just as the ‘Son, the Man', not He came to be attended to but to attend, and give the ‘soul, His' – ransom for many.” (CG)   In the previous verse, Jesus told the disciples that whoever desires to be first among them should be their slave. With that noted, He next explains why this is to be so in His kingdom, saying, “Just as the ‘Son, the Man'.”   Referring to Himself, Jesus highlights His humanity. He is fully human. Thus, His example is one that is understandable and attainable in the stream of human existence by others, even if it is not what is normally expected of greatness or preeminence. In this example He sets forth, He notes that “not He came to be attended to.”   This would have been evident to the disciples, even if they didn't really pay attention to it throughout their days together. People didn't come to Jesus to serve Him. The disciples followed Him and learned from Him. They also did the things He directed, such as telling Peter to get a fish in which he would find a coin in its mouth, but there is nothing about people coming to Him and serving Him in a designated capacity.   There is a note in Luke 8:2, 3 about the women who helped provide for Him from their substance, but that is not so much attending to Him as one would think of a servant or slave, but as helpers assisting the ministry of which He was the leader.   Examples such as Martha serving while Mary listened to Jesus cannot be used to dismiss Jesus' words here. Those were duties people do in their regular lives. Jesus being present was incidental to the fact. In other words, Martha would have served anyone who came into her house in a similar manner.   Jesus' words are referring to a person who actively allowed people to serve Him because they were under Him and designated to do so. And so, to explicitly state that the opposite was true, He continues, saying, “but to attend.”   The disciples had seen Jesus tirelessly serving the masses, tending to them, even at His own expense. He didn't expect people to come to His castle and meet His every need. He was in the thick of the masses of Israel, tending to their needs, both physical and spiritual.   In just a short time from His words to these disciples, He would give them a visual, tangible lesson of servitude, which is recorded in John 13:1-17. The Creator and Sustainer of all things would wash their feet, instructing them on what it means to live a life of servitude. And more, Jesus says, “and give the ‘soul, His' – ransom for many.”   A new word is seen, lutron, something to loosen with. As such, it signifies a redemption price, as in one paying a sum to loosen another's bonds. The word is found only here and in the parallel passage in Mark 10:45. However, it is also used in the Greek translation of the Old Testament over twenty times, including key passages, such as Exodus 21:30, Leviticus 19:20, Proverbs 13:8, and Isaiah 45:13.   The word is used to translate specific Hebrew words (such as pidyon, geulah, and kopher) to indicate a redemption price or ransom paid to liberate individuals, such as slaves, captives, or those subject to the death penalty.   The meaning of Jesus' words is clear and unambiguous. Jesus would give His soul, meaning His life, as a ransom payment for others. This, then, would be the ultimate ministration of His life on behalf of those He came to attend to.   Life application: As noted above, Jesus was among the people of Israel, actively serving them with His life, and yet, the disciples probably never stopped to think, “Jesus is spending all His time serving others.”   They would have heard the teaching and thought, “He sure is a great Teacher.” They would have seen the miracles and thought, “He has the most incredible healing abilities.” But they probably didn't put two and two together to conclude, “Jesus is the most stupendous Servant we have ever seen.”   And yet, this is exactly what He was doing. The teaching, healing, counseling, and training were all forms of service which permeated His existence. As Christians, we can get so myopic about things that we miss the greater picture of what is going on in the world around us.   Some focus so heavily on Israel that they miss what God is doing in the church. Some focus so heavily on the church that they miss what God is doing in regard to Israel. We might focus so much on helping that we never take time to teach personal responsibility. We might focus so much on doctrine that we forget about evangelizing.   This doesn't mean that we don't each have our own specialty that we can excel at. But we should not become so focused on our specialty that we forget that others are doing great things that are not necessarily directly related to what we are doing.   A church that teaches sound doctrine may not have a lot of converts, but a church with very basic doctrine may get multitudes saved. One is not better than the other. Rather, they have different abilities and capabilities that should be considered.   It is great to have converts. People's eternal destinies are changed by that. But it is also great that people don't just get converted and then stagnate. There needs to be proper doctrine taught that will keep people from being led astray.   Let us not get bogged down in our own little circle where we forget that God is doing a great work of building His church with an almost innumerable number of specialties, all of which overlap and are intended to bring His purposes together into a perfect body someday.   Lord God, may we be ready to recognize the value of what others are doing, seeing the importance and effect of their efforts, and acknowledging them as such. It took the disciples of Jesus quite a while to figure out what He was doing. May we be willing to carefully evaluate all You have going on in order to build Your people into an everlasting dwelling. Amen.

Moses - A Story of Faith and Deliverance In this week's sermon, we continued our exploration of the life of Moses, focusing on the theme of faith and deliverance. The story of Moses is deeply intertwined with the overarching narrative of God's redemptive plan, which is evident throughout the Bible. Key Scripture References Galatians 4:4: "But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law." Genesis 41:38: Pharaoh recognizes the spirit of God in Joseph. Exodus 1-2: The birth and early life of Moses. Hebrews 11:23: By faith, Moses' parents hid him for three months. Joshua 24:14: Encouragement to serve the Lord faithfully. 2 Chronicles 16:9: "For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him." The Story of Moses The narrative begins with the Israelites enslaved in Egypt, a time when a new Pharaoh, who did not know Joseph, rose to power. This Pharaoh, fearing the growing number of Israelites, enacted a genocidal decree to kill all Hebrew baby boys. However, the story of Moses begins with an act of defiance and faith by his parents, who hid him for three months. The Role of Faith Active Faith: Moses' parents demonstrated incredible faith by defying Pharaoh's edict, a theme echoed in Hebrews 11:23. Their actions were driven by a fear of God rather than fear of man. Fear of God: This fear is described as "faith in selfless action." It is the courage to act according to God's will, even when it means standing against worldly powers. The Deliverance Plan God's Timing: Just as Jesus came "when the set time had fully come" (Galatians 4:4), Moses was born at a crucial time to deliver God's people. Divine Protection: The midwives, Shiphrah and Puah, feared God and protected the Hebrew boys, including Moses, which was crucial for the deliverance plan. Lessons for Today God Works Through Faith: God often chooses to work through those who fear Him, as seen in the faith of Moses' parents and the midwives. FB Meyer notes that God seeks the cooperation of man in fulfilling His purposes. Fear of God vs. Fear of Man: The sermon challenges us to examine whether we truly fear God, which should lead to a life distinguishable from the world. The fear of God gives us the courage to resist societal pressures. God's Search for the Faithful: 2 Chronicles 16:9 reminds us that God is actively seeking those whose hearts are fully committed to Him, to strengthen them for His purposes. Conclusion The story of Moses is a powerful reminder of God's faithfulness and the importance of living a life of active faith. As we reflect on this narrative, we are encouraged to examine our own lives and ask if we are living in the fear of God, allowing Him to work through us to bring about change in the world. Let us be inspired by the courage of Moses' parents and the midwives, and strive to be the faithful servants God seeks to advance His kingdom.

We are on a journey to do a Bible Study through the entire Bible. Brother Daniel Dydek is teaching this third lesson from the book of Exodus.

In this raw and deeply personal episode, Rachel Wojo shares the moment something inside her broke. Not because God hadn't made her strong enough, but because she had been carrying things He never handed her in the first place. Moses found himself in the same place in Exodus 18, judging every dispute in Israel from morning until evening, until his father-in-law Jethro watched for one day and said plainly: this is not good. The work is too heavy for you. Not a gentle encouragement to pace yourself — a clear-eyed diagnosis that something had to change. Rachel spent years believing the only options were carrying everything or giving up entirely. But Jethro offered Moses a third way, the one God had intended all along: carry what is yours, and let others carry the rest. Letting someone help is not a sign of weakness or failure. It is, as Rachel eventually discovered, one of the most loving things you can do for everyone around you — and for yourself. Today's Bible Verse "What you are doing is not good. You and these people who come to you will only wear yourselves out. The work is too heavy for you; you cannot handle it alone." — Exodus 18:17-18, NIV Ponder Today You may be carrying things God never handed you. Not every burden on your shoulders was placed there by Him. Some were picked up out of pride, fear, or the belief that asking for help meant failing. Ask God to show you the difference. Exhaustion is not the same as faithfulness. Confusing the two keeps us from the relief God is offering. A willingness to suffer under an impossible load is not a virtue when God has already provided a better way. There is a third option beyond carrying everything or giving up. Jethro's counsel to Moses was not to quit but to redistribute. Carry what is yours. Release what isn't. Let God work through others to carry the rest. You were made to carry something — but not everything, and never alone. This is not a personal failing. It is how God designed the whole thing from the beginning, a Body that bears one another's burdens, held together by Him. A Prayer for You Today Heavenly Father, I come to You today tired in a way sleep doesn't fix. You see the load I have been carrying — what is mine and what I picked up along the way without anyone asking me to. I have been telling myself that a stronger person could handle this, and a better Christian wouldn't need help. Those are lies. Show me what is mine to carry and what was never mine in the first place. Give me the humility to set down what isn't from You, and the courage to ask for help with what is. Forgive me for confusing exhaustion with faithfulness. Thank You that You gave Moses a Jethro — and that You have placed people in my life who can see what I can't yet admit. In Jesus' name, Amen.

In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores one of the greatest challenges in spiritual growth: breaking deeply ingrained habits. The Orchot Tzaddikim teaches that repeated behavior gradually becomes normalized until a person no longer sees it as wrong. Sins that are repeated frequently can begin to feel permissible, making genuine repentance far more difficult. Therefore, a person seeking teshuvah must establish strong boundaries, cultivate determination, and consciously distance themselves from negative habits until those behaviors become foreign and even repulsive to them. The episode emphasizes that repentance is not a one-time event but an ongoing process of refinement. Rabbi Wolbe explains that just as a stained garment may require multiple washings before every trace of dirt disappears, the soul may require repeated layers of repentance before it is fully cleansed. Even when a person has already apologized or sought forgiveness, deeper levels of understanding may emerge later in life, requiring additional reflection, remorse, and spiritual repair. True teshuvah continually revisits past mistakes with greater maturity and awareness. The lesson then introduces the first two foundational pillars of repentance. The first is charatah—genuine regret for having distanced oneself from Hashem and misused the gifts, opportunities, and potential entrusted to them. The second is azivas hacheit—abandoning the sin and firmly resolving not to repeat it in the future. Rabbi Wolbe challenges listeners to recognize the preciousness of the soul, the fleeting nature of worldly pleasures, and the eternal value of spiritual growth. Authentic repentance begins when a person honestly asks, "What have I done?" and then takes concrete steps to chart a different course forward._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on September 29, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 15, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Moses was the father of two sons, Gershom and Eliezer, and he also served as a father figure to the entire Hebrew people as they escaped from slavery in Egypt.He loved his people and helped discipline and provide for them on their 40-year journey to the Promised Land. Imagine leading a frustrated, tired, hungry group of travelers through the desert — without air conditioning or handheld electronics — for four decades!So many aspects of Moses' life story seem larger-than-life, and he was indeed a hero of his time — but he was also merely a man. Moses' perseverance in the face of incredible challenges over the course of his life shows today's fathers that overwhelming tasks can be achieved when we stay close to God.Exodus 16:11–12 says, “The Lord said to Moses, ‘I have heard the grumbling of the Israelites. Tell them, ‘At twilight you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be filled with bread. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God.'”The Israelites were afraid they would starve in the barren desert after fleeing Egypt, and complained to Moses that it would have been better if they had died by the Lord's hand in Egypt, where they had enough to eat, than to wander the desert without provisions. Imagine how frustrated Moses must have been! The Lord had miraculously saved the Israelites from slavery, and now they worried God wouldn't provide what they needed to survive.Through God's faithful guidance, Moses was able to shepherd the Israelites through 40 years of wilderness living. They quarreled with Moses. They accused him of leading them to disaster and ruin. They complained frequently — even after they had seen God's promises fulfilled. Yet still, Moses carried on. He brought every concern to the Lord, and with God's blessing and guidance, he was able to keep going.Philippians 4:6 says, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”Moses teaches fathers that with God, all things are possible.God answers prayer, and desires intimate fellowship with every believer.No one can follow God's laws perfectly. We all need a Savior.Let's pray.Heavenly Father, sometimes parenting is exhausting! Thank you for the blessing of children, and we ask you to bless dads with patience to spare and to make your presence known to tired dads in the trenches who need your wisdom, and your grace.

In this sermon, Pastor Jake unpacks Revelation 15 and invites us to “follow the smoke” of God's presence through the wilderness of this age. Drawing rich parallels between Revelation and the Exodus story, he shows how the same fire that judges evil (Revelation 15:1, 7–8; Exodus 9–12) becomes protection and sanctuary for those who stand in the “burned over place” of the cross (Isaiah 53:4–6; Galatians 2:20).Key themes include:New Exodus & the WildernessSee how Revelation presents the church as God's people on a wilderness journey (Revelation 12:6, 14; 15:2–4), echoing Israel's path from Egypt to the Promised Land (Exodus 14–17; Deuteronomy 8:2–3). We are learning to guard our allegiance to the Lamb (Revelation 14:1–5) and resist the dragon, the beasts, and Babylon (Revelation 12–13; 17–18).Plagues, Justice, and the Prayers of the SaintsExplore how the seven bowls of wrath (Revelation 15:1, 7; 16:1–21) mirror the plagues of Egypt (Exodus 7–12) and are connected to the prayers of the saints (Revelation 5:8; 8:3–5). God's judgment is His measured, righteous response to evil (Romans 2:5; 2 Peter 3:9–10) and His answer to our longing for justice (Luke 18:1–8).Sea of Glass & Song of Moses and the LambJohn's vision of the sea of glass glowing with fire (Revelation 15:2) recalls Israel standing safe on the far side of the Red Sea (Exodus 14:21–31). At the very center of judgment imagery is worship: the people of God singing the song of Moses and the Lamb (Revelation 15:3–4; Exodus 15:1–18; Psalm 98:1–3). Worship and presence are inseparable (Revelation 4–5; John 4:23–24).Smoke, Glory, and the Way InThe temple filled with smoke (Revelation 15:5–8) points back to God's glory filling the tabernacle and making it unenterable (Exodus 40:34–35) and the temple scenes of Isaiah and Ezekiel (Isaiah 6:1–7; Ezekiel 10:3–4). Pastor Jake shows how this is not exclusion but invitation: the Lamb is both sacrifice and high priest (Hebrews 4:14–16; 9:11–14; 10:19–22), the only way into God's presence (John 14:6).From there, the message presses home three Spirit-formed works in our wilderness journey:Provision – Learning dependence as God provides in supernatural ways (Exodus 16–17; Matthew 6:25–34; Philippians 4:19). True maturity is not independence from God but joyful reliance on Him (John 15:5).Protection – Living boldly in a world where the dragon wages war on the church (Revelation 12:17; 13:7), yet knowing that nothing can separate us from the love of Christ (Romans 8:31–39; John 10:27–30; Psalm 91:1–4).Preparation – Allowing the wilderness to expose and sanctify our hearts (Deuteronomy 8:2; 1 Peter 1:6–7; James 1:2–4). Through community, correction, and surrender, we are being formed into a people ready for honorable use (2 Timothy 2:20–21) and for the age to come (Revelation 21:1–5).If you're walking through fire, wrestling with dependence, or facing spiritual opposition, this message calls you to stand in the finished work of Jesus, follow the smoke of His presence, and trust His provision, protection, and preparation in the wilderness.

Welcome to Week 4 of our Exodus series as Pastor Josh explores a struggle many believers know all too well—feeling close to God one moment and condemned the next. Looking at the life of Moses, this message reveals how shame, failure, and self-condemnation can keep us running from God's purpose and doubting His calling on our lives. While our flesh constantly reminds us of our mistakes, God's Word tells a different story. Through the truth of Romans 8:1, we discover that condemnation is not the voice of God. In Christ, there is freedom from the weight of our past failures and grace that is greater than our shortcomings. If you've ever felt like you've disappointed God, disqualified yourself from His plans, or struggled to move beyond your mistakes, this message will encourage you to embrace the freedom, forgiveness, and identity found in Jesus.

Exodus 26:30-37Senior Pastor, Clint PressleySunday, June 14, 2026 

What are we gonna do now? That's the question a lot of us are asking as financial pressure and uncertainty keep piling up. This week we're looking at the Israelites trapped at the edge of the Red Sea in Exodus 14, a moment where fear, sarcasm, and worst-case thinking took over. Here's what I keep coming back to: fear and faith are both about what we can't yet see. So when the pressure hits, which one will we let lead?Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside's conviction that God's grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God's presence and activity in your life.

In this continuation of the "Rainmaker" narratives from Tractate Ta'anit, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores profound lessons about poverty, faith, honesty, prayer, and personal responsibility. The episode opens with the moving story of Rabbi Elazar ben Pedas, who lived in extreme poverty yet maintained unwavering faith. Through a remarkable dream-like encounter with Hashem, he demonstrates acceptance of Divine providence and a refusal to seek personal gain at the expense of others—even in the World to Come. The discussion then turns to the Torah's uncompromising standard of honesty. Rabbi Wolbe shares powerful contemporary examples illustrating the mitzvah of returning lost property and conducting business with integrity. Whether it's returning forgotten cash hidden inside a desk or correcting a pricing error that benefits you, true righteousness means doing what's right because Hashem commands it—not because anyone else is watching. The latter portion of the episode returns to the Talmud's stories of prayer for rain, emphasizing that a generation's spiritual state affects the effectiveness of its leaders' prayers. The episode culminates with a profound lesson on gratitude and perspective: complaints generate more negativity, while appreciation and positive expectation create opportunities for greater blessing. Rabbi Wolbe teaches that our words, attitudes, and outlook shape the spiritual reality we experience. _____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by David & Susan MarbinRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 27, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 15, 2026_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thinking-talmudist-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1648951154Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0cZ7q9bGYSBYSPQfJvwgzmShare your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content._____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Help us share Jewish wisdom globally by sponsoring an episode at torchweb.org.

A thousand times a year, someone sits across the table from Jeremy Stalnecker and says: "I've tried everything. If this doesn't work, I'm not going to make it." How is a gentle and lowly Jesus the answer to that? Dane Ortlund, pastor of Naperville Presbyterian and author of the runaway evangelical bestseller Gentle and Lowly, sits down with Jeremy to break down the Jesus most Christian men have never been taught. The Jesus who, as Spurgeon noted, only once told us what was in his own heart. The Jesus whose default is mercy and whose anger always requires provocation. The Jesus with nail-scarred arms who, according to 1 Corinthians 12, feels your trauma more acutely than you do. This is one of the most theologically rich conversations on the channel - anchored in Matthew 11:28-30, with stops in Hebrews 1, John 14, Exodus 34, and 1 Corinthians 12. If you've ever pictured Jesus as a watered-down, decaffeinated, domesticated version of God, this conversation will reset that picture.

Exodus - Lesson 8 Defeating Discouragement Exodus 6:1-30 1. God Reminds Moses Who He is (6:1-3) 2. God Remembers His Covenant (6:4-5) 3. God Declares What He Will Do (6:6-8) 4. The People Respond Out of Their Discouragement (6:9) 5. The Recommissioning of a Servant (6:10-30)

The victory God gives us does not mean we will never face a battle. It means we do not face the battle alone. John Burns preached from Exodus 17, where Israel fought the Amalekites while Moses stood on the hill with the staff of God in his hands. As long as Moses' hands were lifted, Israel was winning. When his hands grew tired, Aaron and Hur came alongside him and held them up until the victory was won. John highlighted three elements of victory in this passage: the struggle, the source, and the support. The struggle reminds us that battles are part of the Christian life. The source reminds us that the Lord is our banner, Jehovah Nissi, and that victory comes from Him. The support reminds us that we need Christ and we need one another. “Without the struggle, we don't have the victory,” John said. He also reminded us, “The Lord is the source of our victory.” This message also points us to Jesus, the ultimate fulfillment of Jehovah Nissi. Just as Moses lifted his hands and Joshua won the battle, Jesus was lifted up on the cross and won the victory for all of us. Through His blood, we have forgiveness, covering, intercession, resurrection life, and victory. The application is simple: stay under His banner. Stay connected to Jesus through obedience, praise, prayer, surrender, receiving His Word, and loving Him with your whole heart. When you grow weary, rest on Christ the Rock and allow the family of God to hold you up. His banner over us is victory.

Ḥesed is God's steadfast covenant love and faithfulness as revealed in His character, His promises to Israel and David, and ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Because God has shown us this loyal love, He calls us to reject empty religion and become a ḥesed-shaped people who faithfully love Him and one another. The Hebrew word ḥesed describes God's steadfast, covenant love: loyal, merciful, faithful, and kind. God's ḥesed calls us not only to receive His love and faithfulness with confidence, but also to practice the same kind of loyal love toward Him and one another in the church. Exodus 34:6–7 — God reveals Himself as merciful and gracious, abounding in covenant faithfulness (ḥesed). Deuteronomy 7:9 — God faithfully keeps His covenant faithfulness (ḥesed) across generations. Psalm 136 — The ḥesed psalm: God's ḥesed endures forever. 2 Samuel 7:11b–16 —God's loyal love (ḥesed) is expressed in God's covenant promise to David's house. Luke 1:68–75 — Jesus as the fulfillment of God's covenant faithfulness (ḥesed). Hosea 6:6–7 — Essentially, God is saying, “I do not want empty ceremonies from people who are betraying Me in their heart. I desire ḥesed.” Micah 6:8 — To love ḥesed is to love covenant loyalty. It means we do not treat our relationships with God as a convenience or something to discard when it doesn't align with our desires. Ruth 1:16 — “For where you go, I will go, and where you lodge, I will lodge; your people are my people, and your God is my God.” Galatians 6:1–2 — A ḥesed community is one filled with loyal, gentle, burden-bearing love and faithfulness.The post Transformation 3: The Power of Loyalty first appeared on Living Hope.

God sends Moses on a mission and immediately threatens to kill him? Why does his wife then call him a "bridegroom of blood?"In today's episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie continue through their Strange Scriptures series and talk through an account in Exodus 4 where Zipporah has to circumcise her son to prevent Moses from being killed by God.

In Episode 4 of the series Mary in the Dock: Ordinary or Extraordinary?, host Greg Smith puts the Catholic doctrine of Mary as the New Ark of the Covenant on trial. Protestants often charge that this is fabricated typology with no explicit New Testament warrant, that it's eisegesis used to justify later Marian dogmas, and that it risks over-elevating Mary in ways that compete with Christ. Greg gives these objections a full, fair hearing before delivering a robust Catholic defense rooted in rich biblical typology, including a detailed “constellation” of parallels between the Old Testament Ark and Mary: the Word of God, the manna, Aaron's rod, the overshadowing by the Holy Spirit (using the exact same Greek verb ἐπισκιάζω in both Exodus 40 and Luke 1:35), the three-month stay, David's dance vs. John the Baptist's leap, and more. Early Church Fathers like Hippolytus, Athanasius, and Ephraim the Syrian affirmed this long before Constantine, and the teaching is thoroughly Christocentric—Mary as the pure vessel who brings God's presence to his people. Listeners serve as the jury in this engaging courtroom discussion that builds directly on the New Eve episode. Whether you're a curious non-Catholic, a Protestant pastor investigating the faith, or a cradle Catholic rediscovering these treasures, this episode will challenge you to decide: is Mary simply an ordinary woman, or the extraordinary New Ark the Church has always proclaimed?
