Jews for Jesus helps Jewish people come to know Jesus, the Jewish Messiah. What's fascinating is how Jews for Jesus has not only remained committed to that mission of sharing the hope of the Jewish Messiah, but has also adapted as the world around it has changed. As ministry leaders, we face the tension between time-honored tradition and the need for fresh approaches—and the story of Jews for Jesus offers some compelling lessons in adaptive leadership.In this episode, Aaron Abramson, CEO of Jews for Jesus and author of Mission Design, shares how Jews for Jesus has reimagined its strategies for sharing the gospel, as well as how leaders can cultivate a posture of learning and flexibility without compromising core convictions.  THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Jews for Jesus began as a movement to share the gospel with Jewish people, focusing on presenting the message in accessible and relevant ways.Aaron Abramson clarifies that believing in Jesus as the Messiah does not require abandoning Jewish identity.The earliest followers of Jesus were Jewish, and the concept of Gentiles joining Jesus was initially controversial in the early church.Markus Watson asks Aaron Abramson to share his own journey of faith and what led him to believe in Jesus as the Messiah.Religious and cultural barriers often make it challenging for Jewish people to consider faith in Jesus.Jews for Jesus historically used bold street evangelism, including handing out creative broadsides and literature on college campuses.Aaron Abramson observes that the primary strategy for evangelism shifted as cultural contexts and modes of communication changed.The rise of digital communication made traditional street evangelism less effective for connecting with Jewish people.Aaron Abramson describes pivoting to a process of empathetic listening and learning from the communities he was trying to reach.Teams at Jews for Jesus began to adopt audience-centric communication, tailoring their approach for different Jewish communities and subgroups.Aaron Abramson explains the development of new outreach models, such as setting up coffee shops and arts ministries as relational spaces.Ministry teams use design thinking, prototyping, and iteration to refine new strategies and measure their impact.Changing methodologies and staying adaptive allow Jews for Jesus to remain effective in reaching diverse Jewish audiences.Markus Watson highlights the importance of continually learning and adapting, affirming that keeping a posture of learning leads to meaningful change.RELEVANT RESOURCES AND LINKS:Jews for Jesus website“So Be It” Youtube channelBooks mentioned:Mission Design, by Aaron AbramasonCenter Church, by Tim KellerRelated episodes:187: Tackling Adaptive Challenges in Church Leadership, with Angie Ward264: Building a Future-Focused Church, with Kara Powell, Jake Mulder, and Raymond ChSend me a text!

Theme: The War for Souls — Understanding the Battle Between God and Satan Pastor Matthew preached from Isaiah 53, Ephesians 6, and Romans 8, unfolding the reality of the spiritual war between God and Satan that began in heaven and now continues on earth for the souls of men. The sermon traced the war's origin, its impact on humanity, and the believer's call to stand and fight through Christ's victory. The Origin of the War Pastor began by explaining from Hebrew tradition that Lucifer's rebellion may have occurred after Adam was created, not before. When God gave Adam dominion over the earth, Lucifer resented being subject to a being made in God's image and likeness. “Lucifer didn't like that he had to come under Adam's authority if he came to earth. That's why he rebelled.” The war began in heaven and extended to humanity when Satan deceived Adam and Eve in the garden. Humanity retained God's image but lost His likeness — becoming earthly instead of heavenly. The goal of the Christian life, Pastor said, is to regain the likeness of God through Christ. “Your goal isn't to be the best preacher, singer, or worker — your goal is to be like Him.” Jesus: The Warrior Who Fought for Us (Isaiah 53) Reading from Isaiah 53, Pastor described the suffering of Christ as the battle for our redemption. “He went to war — and He was wounded, bruised, and pierced for us.” Every wound Jesus took was a war wound, proof of victory through sacrifice. “By His stripes we are healed” means that the war Jesus fought reconciled us to God — our peace (shalom) restored. Pastor explained shalom as “the cessation of againstness” — the end of hostility between God and man. “When I say ‘Shalom,' I'm saying everything's right between me and you, and between me and God.” The war Jesus fought was not symbolic — it was a real, violent confrontation for our souls. “He went to war for us, and He won. Now He's enlisted us in that same war.” The Nature of Our Battle (Ephesians 6:10–18) Pastor reminded the congregation that we are still in the middle of the war — a spiritual one. We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, and rulers of darkness. Satan's primary weapon is deception — “He caused me to forget” (the Hebrew meaning of beguiled). “Temptation works when we forget — just for a moment — the consequences, our love for God, and who we are.” The solution: Put on the full armor of God — truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, and the Word. Pastor emphasized the danger of modern distractions: “We've got a league for everything, a device for everything, but few remember the war we're in. Don't get lulled to sleep.” Key call: “You belong to God before you belong to anybody. Drop what you're doing when He calls. You owe Him that.” The Mind — The Battlefield (2 Corinthians 10:3–5) The war begins in the mind. “That's where Satan got Eve — he distorted her thinking before she took the fruit.” The enemy still works through arguments, imaginations, and lies that exalt themselves against God's truth. Pastor warned that many people are angry at God because Satan deceived them into believing God failed or took something from them. “The devil's best work is making people mad at God — blaming Him for what sin caused.” Believers must bring every thought into captivity to Christ and refuse carnal conflicts with others. “The war isn't in here (the church) — it's out there. Don't fight one another. Prefer one another.” The Call to Spiritual Endurance (2 Timothy 2:3–4) “You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.” Pastor explained that soldiers suffer wounds, hunger, frostbite, and exhaustion — yet stay committed to the mission. Likewise, Christians must endure hardship without getting entangled in worldly distractions. “If you've got too much going on to spend time with God, you've got too much going on.” Our goal is not comfort, but to please Him who enlisted us. Victory Assured (Romans 8:18–39) The war may be fierce, but the outcome is already settled. Jesus' death and resurrection guarantee victory for those who remain faithful. “The game's fixed. If we die, we go straight to be with the Lord.” Creation itself is groaning for redemption, waiting for the full restoration of God's sons. The Holy Spirit helps us in battle — interceding when we don't know how to pray. “When you pray ‘Thy will be done,' you're asking God to realign lives, rescue souls, and tear down sin. That's warfare prayer.” Nothing can separate believers from God's love: Not tribulation, distress, persecution, famine, or death. “In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.” The War's End — The Crushing of the Serpent Pastor closed with the prophetic image of David placing Goliath's head on Golgotha, “the place of the skull.” “David was declaring to the world that another is coming to this hill — One who will crush the serpent's head and set you free.” The victory Jesus won at the cross fulfilled that prophecy: “He went to war for us, and now we fight under His banner until the final victory.” Core Message The war began in heaven but now rages on earth for the souls of men. Jesus fought and won at Calvary — His wounds are our peace. We are enlisted soldiers called to fight with faith, prayer, and perseverance. Nothing can separate us from the love of God — the victory is already ours.

Shalom Auslander goes on vacation with his family, and suspects the beloved, chatty old man in the room next door is an imposter—and sets out to prove it. This and other stories about the pitfalls of making snap judgments about others. Visit thisamericanlife.org/lifepartners to sign up for our premium subscription.Prologue: Amy Roberts thought it was obvious that she was an adult, not a kid, and she assumed the friendly man working at the children's museum knew it too. Unfortunately, the man had Amy pegged all wrong. And by the time she figured it out, it was too late for either of them to save face. Host Ira Glass talks to Amy about the embarrassing ordeal that taught her never to assume she knows what someone else is thinking. (8 minutes)Act One: While riding in a patrol car to research a novel, crime writer Richard Price witnessed a misunderstanding that, for many people, is pretty much accepted as an upsetting fact of life. Richard Price told this story, which he describes as a tale taken from real life and dramatized, onstage at The Moth in New York. (12 minutes)Act Two: There are situations where making judgments about people based on limited information is not only accepted but required. One of those situations is open adoption, where birth mothers actually choose the adoptive parents for their child. Producer Nancy Updike talks to a pregnant woman named Kim, going through the first stage of open adoption: reading dozens of letters from prospective parents, all of whom seem utterly capable and appealing. (6 minutes)Act Three: David Rakoff picks a fight with a hit Broadway show. (6 minutes)Act Four: Shalom Auslander tells the story of the time he went on vacation, pegged the guest in the room next door as an imposter, and devoted his holiday to trying to prove it.

Noah was a big tzadik 5786

We all need tests to know our purpose

What if our well-intentioned efforts to promote mental health inadvertently perpetuate systems that cause mental unwellness? What if the resilience we encourage only equips individuals to endure rather than challenge structures detrimental to their well-being? Why do mental health experiences vary so drastically across cultures, with Western societies seemingly posing the greatest challenges for certain conditions? Against the backdrop of escalating ecological dramas that devastate our world and its climate, do we ever wonder what ecological suffering might imply for our mental health? With this poignant, impassioned book Seeking Sanctuary, Finding Shalom, John Swinton invites us to begin exploring avenues toward addressing these daunting and interrelated issues. John Swinton is a consulting faculty member at Duke Divinity and professor in practical theology and pastoral care and chair in divinity and religious studies at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland. For more than a decade he worked as a registered mental health nurse. He also worked for a number of years as a hospital and community mental health chaplain alongside of people with severe mental health challenges who were moving from the hospital into the community. In 2004, he founded the University of Aberdeen's Centre for Spirituality, Health, and Disability. He has published widely within the area of mental health, dementia, disability theology, spirituality and healthcare, end-of-life care, qualitative research, and pastoral care. Swinton is the author of a number of monographs including a previous book, Finding Jesus in the Storm: The Spiritual Lives of People With Mental Health Challenges (Eerdmans 2020), which won the Aldersgate book price for interdisciplinary theological research, and his book Dementia: Living in the Memories of God, which won the Archbishop of Canterbury's Ramsey Prize for excellence in theological writing. Swinton is a fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh and was recently elected as a fellow of the British Academy.

Giving God the glory for what we have, that is the wisdom, do we use this wisdom? Do we live for God or for the riches of this world?

Are you feeling defeated? The enemy we face is no different from the enemy Solomon faced! God is able to fight for us today!! Do we let Him or try to do in our own power?

Why did Solomon have so many wives? Was that God's plan? Was he obedient to God's direction? How do we apply this to our own lives? Can we have God's promises, and do as He had instructed, to live forever with Him?

What did it mean to bring the Ark into the Temple? How did He fill the Temple with His glory?

Isaiah 9:1-7⁠ Jesus is the prince of peace, the prince of shalom. Shalom is more than just an absence of conflict. It is everything being made complete and right. In our world, we can be very aware of the darkness. The news is often filled with it. And we have darkness closer to home; in our family relationships as well as in our own personal lives, too. Jesus has come to dispel all darkness and bring an end to all conflict. But He can only do as much as we let Him have access to in our lives. The more we're able to let our old selves die, and resurrect with Him, the more peace rules our lives and enables us to bring Jesus' shalom to a world in need. By Ed Flint

Vayiqra 3 — The Law of Peace: When Fellowship Becomes FireTeacher: Kerry Battle | Ahava~Love AssemblyThe shalam offering of Leviticus 3 is the peace offering — not for sin, but for communion.

https://youtu.be/f4AzxgarUrcPart 2 of our Fall Feasts prophecy series continues with the most powerful revelation yet:The pattern of the Spring and Fall Feasts reveals the entire prophetic timeline — from Messiah's first coming to His return at the final harvest.We'll examine the parable of the Wheat and Tares (Matthew 13), the resurrection in 1 Corinthians 15, and the final harvest in Revelation 14 to show how Yahusha was planted during Passover and Unleavened Bread, and why the harvest of His people happens in the Fall Feasts — Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles.

https://youtu.be/A37KsYb8OewMany have claimed the rapture would happen on the Feast of Trumpets — and every date has failed. But Scripture gives us something far better than speculation: a prophetic pattern.In this study, we'll uncover how the Fall Feasts — Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles — reveal the season of the Second Coming, just as the Spring Feasts foretold Yahusha's first coming.We'll connect Matthew 24, the Parable of the Wheat and Tares (Matthew 13), and Revelation 14's Final Harvest, showing how Yahusha was “planted” during the Spring Feasts and returns during the harvest season in the Fall.No, we do not know the day or the hour — but Scripture tells us we can know the season.Join us as we test this Biblically and expose false date-setters once and for all.

What if the best leadership isn't about having the answers, but about asking the questions that draw out wisdom, connection, and creativity from those around us? What if the most transformational moments in ministry happen not when we speak—but when we invite others to share, reflect, and dream with us?In this episode, J.R. Briggs, author of The Art of Asking Better Questions discusses how asking great questions can open new possibilities for ministry leaders and lead to healthier, more effective leadership—for ourselves and our churches.THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:JR Briggs describes how questions neurologically "hijack" our brains, engaging us much more deeply than simple information does.Questions foster both clarity and engagement, enabling deeper connection and creativity between people.JR Briggs identifies several cultural obstacles to asking questions, including conversational narcissism, a lack of curiosity, and the fear of awkwardness.Healthy questions play a crucial role in building connection and trust, especially in an age marked by loneliness.JR Briggs attributes his passion for asking questions to observing his father's genuine curiosity and care for others.The quality of your life depends on the quality of questions you ask yourself, God, and others.Deliberate practice, such as collecting good questions and “gaming” conversations, strengthens one's ability to ask better questions.JR Briggs outlines four levels of questions: information, interaction, understanding, and transformation, each deepening relational impact.JR Briggs encourages leaders to move beyond transactional questions and pursue transformational conversations grounded in trust.Curiosity, wisdom, humility, and courage are essential virtues for asking effective questions.Markus Watson notes that leading with questions, rather than only answers, builds stronger relationships and trust as a pastor.Great leaders amplify others and cultivate deep curiosity, according to JR Briggs's research and coaching experience.Questions create space for spiritual direction, hospitality, and genuine pastoral care within ministries.Slowing down and asking questions in tense moments, instead of having knee-jerk reactions, can lead to greater understanding and connection.Jesus used questions extensively—over 300 in the New Testament—to provoke thought, deepen engagement, and transform lives.RELEVANT RESOURCES AND LINKS:Kairos PartnershipsBooks mentioned:The Art of Asking Better Questions, by J.R.

Solmon was greatly beloved by God, with humility in his life in the beginning. the blessings will follow as we submit to God. He made his encounter with God a part of everyone's rejoicing! He was given wisdom, because he asked for it, and God hears our prayers too!

With God, world peace is not only possible, it is already happening. The peace or "shalom" Jesus offers is to bring us to complete wholeness and to extend that peace to those around us.

This week's Shalom Adventure dives deep into the heart of Psalm 42, a powerful and intensely personal song of yearning and distress. Have you ever felt such an overwhelming thirst for God's presence that it felt like your very life was ebbing away? Cantor Keren Tarr masterfully dissects this Psalm, revealing the profound depth of the Psalmist's struggle, which he cries out to Elohim, the judging ruler and the living Godhead. This isn't just about a moment of sadness; it's a raw, sustained cry for the Divine power to intervene against the mockings of enemies who continually ask, ""Where is your God?"" This is what it sounds like to pour out your entire soul to the Ruler of the universe, aching so intensely you can't even eat. Learn why this emotional outpouring is an essential key to spiritual survival and how David, in his deepest despair, chooses to remind his soul to Hope in God by remembering past victories and the joyful fellowship of the pilgrim feasts like Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles). Discover the powerful Messianic connection between the Psalmist's suffering and that of Yeshua, who also faced taunts and loneliness, yet commanded loving kindness into his darkest night. This is how you can transform your own tears into a song of praise, moving from the breaking of your bones to declaring, ""I shall yet praise him,"" trusting in the salvation and the perpetual presence of Yeshua as your help, health, and God.

Join Rolf Jacobson, Kathryn Schifferdecker, and Craig Koester as they explore Jeremiah 29:1, 4-14 for Christ the King Sunday (November 23, 2025). This powerful episode examines Jeremiah's shocking letter to the Babylonian exiles, where God calls His people not to resist, but to settle down, build homes, and seek the welfare of the very city that conquered them. The hosts unpack the jarring nature of Jeremiah's message—marry, have children, pray for Babylon—in contrast to the rage expressed in Psalm 137. They explore how this ancient text speaks to anyone finding themselves in an unexpected place or life circumstance, offering hope through one of Scripture's most famous promises: "For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope" (Jeremiah 29:11). This episode offers fresh perspective on exile, hope, and what it means to live faithfully in a mixed society while maintaining covenant relationship with God. Perfect preparation for Advent's themes of hope and waiting.

Jeremiah 29:1, 4-7; Luke 17:11-19 Sermon by the Rev. Elizabeth N.H. Link from Preschool Sunday, October 19, 2025. Read the manuscripts of our latest sermons at: https://www.spres.org/worship/sermons/ 

On October 20th, 2025, Arthur Waskow – a revolutionary activist and teacher of Torah – died at the age of 92. He was an inspiration to our work at Judaism Unbound in more ways than we can articulate. Even as our organization was launched when he was already in his 80s, he found so many ways to collaborate with us and offer his unique forms of Torah to our audiences. He presented at 5 consecutive ShavuotLIVE gatherings, frequently moving attendees to tears, welcomed Judaism Unbound as a partner for many of his programs with The Shalom Center, and was twice a guest on this podcast.For those who would feel moved to hear from Arthur's voice shortly after his passing, we wanted to re-release those two appearances of his on Judaism Unbound. The first is Episode 166, entitled The Freedom Seder, and the second is a bonus episode called Confronting Carbon Pharaohs.Well into his 90s, Arthur Waskow was committed in mind, spirit, and body to the betterment of our world. He reminded us, over and over, that the word Adamah – meaning earth or soil – and the word Adam – meaning earthling, are intertwined, meaning all of us as earthlings are inherently connected to the planet, earth, that we live on. May his memory be for a blessing and a revolution. ----------------------------------Donations in honor of Arthur Waskow's life and legacy can be directed to The Shalom Center -- an organization he founded -- via this link.
