Podcasts about Sinai

It is customary to read the first chapter of Yehezkel (Ezekiel) as the Haftarah on Shabuot, a section known as Ma'aseh Merkava – the vision of the Divine Chariot. This profound and mysterious prophecy was revealed to Yehezkel while in exile by the River Kevar in Babylon. Despite being in galut, the Shechina appeared to him, teaching us that Hashem's presence remains with us even outside the Land of Israel. The imagery in the Haftarah is highly symbolic: four-faced angels, wheels of fire, and a glowing chariot representing the heavenly realms. The four faces—human, lion, ox, and eagle—symbolize dominion over different realms of creation. Above them all sits the Divine presence, symbolizing Hashem's supremacy over all. According to the Zohar, the human face seen in the vision is that of Yaakov Avinu , whose spiritual greatness earned him a place under the Heavenly Throne. The Haftarah is read on Shabuot because the revelation at Sinai was similarly accompanied by clouds, lightning, and thunder. Just as Matan Torah revealed Hashem's glory, so too does this vision reflect a celestial dimension of His presence. Although the details are esoteric and not meant to be publicly expounded, practical lessons emerge: Angels are stationary – they do not grow spiritually. Their legs are straight and fixed, teaching us that only humans can elevate themselves spiritually through effort, Torah, and mitzvot. Shabuot is the perfect time to recommit to personal growth. Angels of judgment travel slowly , while angels of mercy travel instantly. From this, we learn to pause before reacting in anger or judgment , giving ourselves time to calm down and choose a better path. Acting with patience brings mercy into our decisions. The vision also hints that the Shechina was departing from the Beit HaMikdash, a symbolic warning that without spiritual substance, even a holy building becomes just bricks and stone. Despite the complexity of this Haftarah, the overarching message is clear: Hashem is with us in every generation, in every place—even in exile—and our mission is to grow, learn, and draw closer to Him through Torah .

In today's episode, we sit down with Professor Rob Turrisi, a leading expert in behavioral decision-making and substance misuse prevention, to discuss teen drinking. With decades of research, Turrisi shares insights on the developmental factors influencing alcohol use among adolescents and emerging adults, exploring the transition from high school to college, peer environments, and alarming data on blackout drinking and alcohol use disorder. We discuss the impact of positive communication, effective monitoring, and setting clear household rules. We also dive into common misconceptions, such as the belief that allowing teens to drink at home prevents binge drinking in college.

Shiur given by Rabbi Yisroel Saperstein on Parsha. Shiur recorded in Yeshivas Ohr Reuven, Monsey, NY.

It is customary to adorn our homes and synagogues on Shabuot with flowers and greenery. This custom is recorded by the Rama (Rabbi Moshe Isserles of Cracow, 1525-1572) in his discussion of the laws of Shabout (Orah Haim 494:3). More so than on other holidays, it is appropriate on Shabuot to decorate the homes and synagogues with flowers and other vegetation, in order commemorate Matan Torah. At the time of the Revelation at Sinai, G-d warned the people not to allow their cattle to graze on the mountain ("Gam Ha'son Ve'ha'bakar Al Yir'u El Mul Ha'har Ha'hu" – Shemot 34:3), indicating that it was full of pasture. Mount Sinai is in the desert, where vegetation does not grow, but in honor of the event of Matan Torah G-d had flowers and grass grow on the mountain, and we commemorate this adorning of Mount Sinai by adorning our homes and synagogues on Shabuot. The Ben Ish Hai (Rav Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909) adds a deeper interpretation of this custom based on Kabbalistic teachings. He explains that Torah study has the effect of "Mituk Ha'dinim" – "sweetening" harsh judgments issued against a person. Even if G-d had issued a decree, Heaven forbid, against somebody, that decree can be annulled through the study of Torah. The divine Name associated with strict judgment is "Elokim," whereas the Name associated with "Mituk Ha'dinim" is "Havaya" (Y-H-V-H). When we spell out the names of the letters of these Names (e.g. the Alef of "Elokim" is spelled out, "Alef, Lamed, Peh"), the combined numerical value of the letters of "Elokim" is 300, and the combined numerical value of the letters of "Havaya" is 72. The letter representing the number 300 is "Seen," and the number 72 is represented by the letters "Ayin" (70) and "Bet" (2). The two letters of "Havaya," the Ben Ish Hai explains, surround the letter of "Elokim" to neutralize its effect, such that the letter "Seen" is placed in between the "Ayin" and "Bet." When the three letters are arranged in this fashion, they spell the word "Eseb" – "grass." Thus, we put out vegetation on Shabuot to symbolize the profound spiritual effect of our Torah study, how it has the capacity to annul harsh judgments. As we celebrate the event of Matan Torah, we remind ourselves of how valuable and precious Torah learning is, as alluded to in the "Eseb" with which we decorate the synagogue and home. Summary: It is customary to decorate homes and synagogues with vegetation on Shabuot to commemorate the vegetation that adorned Mount Sinai when the Torah was given. On a Kabbalistic level, vegetation alludes to the power of Torah study to protect us from harsh decrees.

Today in History: The people of Israel arrived in the wilderness of Sinai (see Exodus 19:1). Korah and his followers were swallowed up by the earth on this day (according to tradition, see Numbers 16:18–50). The Prophet Ezekiel received a prophecy against the kingdom of Egypt. God gave him seven prophecies against Egypt and almost all of them mention the date (see Ezekiel 31:1–2).Day 45 of the omer Today is Rosh Chodesh (new moon)This week's portion is called Bamidmar (In The Desert)TORAH PORTION: Numbers 3:1-13GOSPEL PORTION: John 2Think about: What Scripture spoke to you most today and why?

The laws of the Torah - all 613 of them - were conveyed by God to Moshe at Mount Sinai. This is explicitly conveyed regarding the first Mitzvah featured in the first of our double Parsha, the Mitzvah of shemitah, to allow the land to lie fallow each 7th year. When we examine the subject further, we find all sorts of connections between shemitah and Sinai. In this sprawling podcast, we discover the secret of shemitah and the imperative to aspire to angelic greatness.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Welcome to Day 2633 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2633 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 68:15-20 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2633 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2633 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. In today's Wisdom Nugget, we continue our exploration of the majestic Psalm 68 in the New Living Translation. We've already witnessed God as the powerful Divine Warrior, scattering His enemies and bringing joy to the godly. We've journeyed with the Israelites through the wilderness, marveling at God's leadership and provision. Now, as we reach verses 15 through 20, the psalm shifts its focus to God's chosen dwelling place, His triumphant ascension, and His ultimate power over death itself. This section brings together the historical narrative of God's dealings with Israel and a powerful preview of God's ultimate victory and the blessings He bestows upon His people. It's a passage that resonated deeply with the Israelites and holds profound meaning for us today. Let's pick up our trek in Psalm 68, reading verses 15 through 17: (Reads Psalm 68:15-17 NLT) The mountains of Bashan are majestic mountains; rugged are the mountains of Bashan. Why do you look with envy, O rugged mountains, at the mountain God desired for his abode? The Lord will dwell there forever! God's chariots are tens of thousands and thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them in the sanctuary as he was at Sinai. Guthrie Chamberlain: The psalmist begins by referencing the “mountains of Bashan.” Bashan was a region known for its imposing, majestic mountains. They were geographically significant and perhaps viewed with a sense of awe or even pride by other nations. The psalmist acknowledges their grandeur but immediately contrasts them with another mountain – the one “God desired for his abode.” This mountain is, of course, Mount Zion in Jerusalem. From an ancient Israelite perspective, Mount Zion wasn't as physically imposing as some other mountains in the region, including those in Bashan. Yet, its significance far surpassed any other peak because God had chosen it as His dwelling place. The psalmist's question, “Why do you look with envy, O rugged mountains, at the mountain God desired for his abode?” is a rhetorical one, highlighting the supreme honor and importance of Zion, not because of its natural features, but because of God's presence there. In the ancient world, the dwelling place of a deity was central to the identity and security of a people. For the Israelites, the Temple on Mount Zion represented God's tangible presence among them. It was the place where they could come to meet with Him, offer sacrifices, and seek His face. The declaration, “The Lord will dwell there forever!” underscored the permanence of God's presence in Zion, offering a sense of stability and assurance in a world of shifting powers and temporary kingdoms. It was a powerful statement of God's faithfulness to remain with His people. The psalmist then describes God's arrival at His sanctuary in Zion in magnificent terms: “God's chariots are tens of thousands and thousands upon thousands; the Lord...

Some of the greatest moments in human history have taken place on the legendary mountaintops of Egypt, Israel, and Syria. Journey with us to these sacred places of awe and beauty—not only to reflect on what God has done in the past, but to discover what He wants to do in your life during your own mountaintop moments. Fear can cripple us physically, causing everything from high blood pressure and heart attacks to insomnia and digestive issues. Even more damaging, fear isolates us and breaks down our relationships. Moses' life was deeply shaped by fear, and the solution God gave him might be the last thing you'd expect. But it could be the key to your freedom, too. Passage: Exodus 3:1-15; 4:1-5 Speaker: Kevin Stiles

We are continuing our climb up the mountain today and learning from those moments in Bible History when Heaven and Earth collided. And today we focus on Moses and the Israelites after they escaped Egypt and returned back to Mt. Sinai as promised by God. We will see how Moses' identity becomes solidified as Israel's intercessor and he brings God down from the mountain to be with the people. #fsbcsermon #fsbccoalinga Contact us at TheWordInfusion@gmail.com with your comments, questions or praises.  Let us know how our podcast has blessed, encouraged or helped you.  Join us on our Facebook pages at http://www.facebook.com/fsbccoalinga & http://www.facebook.com/..  Help us to grow a community that infuses the Word of God into their lives each day.  Follow us on Twitter @TheWordInfusion or @fsbccoalinga .  To support this ministry click on: https://giving.myamplify.io//app/giving/fsbccoalinga or copy and paste it into your web browser.

The Sinai Covenant has been a focal point in Christian theology since the medieval period, Protestant and Roman Catholic alike. This is because matters of "law" were central in the theological and soteriological formulations that developed through the Middle Ages and were formalized during the Reformation period. This focus on the role of "law" in salvation and sanctification continues to this day, and not surprisingly the "Law of Moses" is a key aspect of it. But far too often the Law of Moses (the Sinai Covenant) isn't treated in its historical, Israelite and covenantal contexts, which is the goal of this consideration.

In today's episode Yale professor and The Happiness Lab host Dr. Laurie Santos breaks down the science of happiness, sharing what research actually shows boosts our wellbeing—and what doesn't. We explore the difference between feeling good in your life and feeling good about your life, and how strategies like social connection, movement, sleep, time affluence, and self-compassion can make a measurable impact. We also dive into helpful insights for parents, explaining how well-intentioned efforts to help can sometimes backfire, and what we can do instead to foster happiness in our children.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

Welcome to Day 2632 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2632 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 68:7-14 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2632 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2632 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. In today's Wisdom Nugget, we continue our exploration of the powerful Psalm 68 in the New Living Translation, picking up our trek in verse 7. In the opening verses, we encountered God as the mighty Divine Warrior before whom enemies scatter and the godly rejoice. Now, the psalmist takes us on a historical journey, recounting God's powerful leadership of Israel from their deliverance in Egypt through the wilderness and into the Promised Land. This section is rich with imagery and speaks to God's active presence and provision for His people throughout their history. Understanding this passage requires us to step back into the shoes of an ancient Israelite and appreciate the significance of the events being described. These were not just historical facts; they were foundational to their identity and their understanding of God's character. Let's begin our trek through Psalm 68, reading verses 7 through 10: (Reads Psalm 68:7-10 NLT) O God, when you led your people into battle, when you marched through the wastelands, Interlude the earth trembled, and the heavens poured down rain before God, the God of Sinai, before God, the God of Israel. You sent abundant showers, O God, to refresh the weary land. Your own people finally settled there, and with a bountiful harvest, O God, you provided for your needy people. Guthrie Chamberlain: The psalmist begins by recounting God's leadership: “O God, when you led your people into battle, when you marched through the wastelands.” This isn't a passive guiding from a distance; it's an active, front-lines leadership. The image of God “marching through the wastelands” evokes the Israelites' journey through the barren and dangerous wilderness after leaving Egypt. God Himself was their leader, present with them in the pillar of cloud by day and fire by night (Exodus 13:21-22). They weren't wandering aimlessly; they were on a divine march under the direct command and presence of God. The phrase “led your people into battle” reminds us that their journey was not without conflict; they faced enemies along the way, and God fought for them. The “Interlude” again gives us a moment to pause and consider the weight of God's direct leadership in such challenging circumstances. When God marched, the earth responded: “the earth trembled, and the heavens poured down rain before God, the God of Sinai.” This powerful imagery likely refers back to the dramatic events at Mount Sinai, where God descended to give the Ten Commandments (Exodus 19). The earth quaked, there was thunder and lightning, and thick clouds. The “heavens poured down rain” might be part of this fearful meteorological display accompanying God's presence, or it could also anticipate God's provision in the wilderness. The title “God of Sinai” specifically...

GOLDEN GODS Exodus 32 Unveils the tragic anatomy of idolatry: Only pure intent towards God can wait on God. If God be not our sole desire we will settle for something else, something less. Even something we claim to be Him. Aaron made a God from his own hands and presented it as Yaweh. They eat at the table of the Lord and then rise up to sin against Him. God has every right to destroy them Moses, as a type of Christ, intercedes for mercy even placing himself in their judgment. When confronted Aaron made little of his evil and excused it with a lie. Moses with holy jealousy burned the idol and cast it upon the waters. This chapter is a divine photograph of the kind of rebellion in our natural human hearts. We must remember that these are not pagans but pilgrims. These are God's people. They heard the thunder of God. They saw the smoke of Sinai. They tasted the manna of heaven—They had passed through the sea on dry ground. They saw Pharaoh drown. They stood under the pillar of fire by night and cloud by day. They know His presence and power. Even still, they made an idol of our own hands.  Waiting has a way of exposing the idols in their hearts. Their idolatry did not spring from ignorance, but from impatience. Only pure intent towards God will refuse to settle for anything that is not exactly Him.  And thus, the human heart is  revealed. And the sad truth remains— man would rather have a visible idol than an invisible God. Something we can control. Something that serves our interest. Something that we shape from our own substance. Behold Aaron, yielding to their desires, melting their gold and forged a god!  O tragic sight—the hands once anointed for the tabernacle, now fashioning an idol image! Aaron defended his spinelessness -  “I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.” He shifted the blame suggesting that idolatry is something uninvited, and innocent.  So often our rebellious heart seek to disguise itself in the garments of accident. So as not not take the full credit for out revolt. Can you believe that they named this idol Yaweh? Even today, men create their own way and call it Yaweh. Delirium!  Oh the evil of the human heart when it ceases to bow before the living God. The human heart, if it be not set upon God for God alone, will always forge a substitute. So often we settle for religion in place of relationship, we perform services that ignore the Savior. It is important to note that the golden calf is not merely an object—it is a theology: a God we can touch, manage, control. A god made by the manipulation of man for man.  A religion without the presence of God. Without the voice of God.    May we read and tremble. For this story is not an ancient Israel problem; it is alive in every age. John Calvin is famous for saying,  “heart is an idol-factory.” I like to say “The unsatisfied heart is an idol factory.” We learn from this instant that idolatry often begins when we are no longer aware of God's presence. When the soul is distracted from God's presence, it is tempted to shape a counterfeit—sometimes of gold.  When the soul wants something more than God it will not wait for Him.  It will recreate Him and move on without His presence and voice. In these days the idol takes the form of carnal desires, worldly ambitions, material possessions, success in ministry, self-absorption. But, while the people danced, led and defiled, Moses prayed. He pleaded with the Lord, arguing not with sentiment but covenant: “Why should the Egyptians say…?” “Remember Abraham…!” He speaks to men for God, but also to God for men. And herein we find a the cream of the chapter—a sacred shadow of Christ. Jesus has stood in the gap for us. He is our great intercessor. Moses prays “Blot me out rather than blot them out.” The echo of Calvary in that cry! Jesus is the final mediator who would come, not only to plead, to bear the wrath, and to restore a covenant broken by rebellion. Oh, that we would see our modern idols for what they are! They are not golden calves, but they are equally God-eclipsing. Some bow to the shrine of platform and ministry; others adore the opinions of men or the pleasures of the world. Even sound doctrine, when divorced from love and presence, is a lifeless image. Oh the great danger of—orthodoxy without intimacy! Paul the Apostle warns us in 1 Corinthians 10 that “these things happened as examples for us,” and that “we must not be idolaters as some of them were.” He does not speak to pagans, but to believers! To those who “ate the same spiritual meat” and “drank of the spiritual Rock.” He says, “let him who thinks he stands take heed, lest he fall.”And there is something more dreadful still - some early Jewish scholars believed that golden calf may have moved—animated by demonic power, or dark enchantment. Whether fable or fact, the truth remains: We empower what we adore. What we give our hearts to will rule us. And what we desire more God will one day mock us. Let us hold fast to the invisible, and refuse the golden glitter of lesser gods. Let us hate that which we make for ourselves and receive only Him sent from above. Let us, like Moses, dwell in the cloud, face to face with God, even when everyone else dances in self gratification. Let us, like Christ, be found interceding for the guilty, rather than condemning with stones. Let us cast down our idols!  Let not our ministry, our reputation, our theology, our pleasures, nor our own wills rise up to take His place. May we grind each competitor to powder and scatter them on the waters. For what we have made with our hands could never satisfy like He who made us with His hands. I once had a dream in which my eyes were fixed upon the lovely Lamb of God.  My heart was full of joy and peace.  I cannot describe the bliss I felt in looking at Him.  When I removed my eyes from him, and fastened them on other things, the longer I looked at them the more they gradually turned to gold. My kids, my wife, my house and books and friends. The most terrifying of all was as I looked at my own hands gold was slowly taking over my flesh.  I came out of the dream realizing that whatever takes my  hearts affection from the Lord will turn to gold and become an idol. I know that my heart, like theirs, is constantly tempted to shape gods of our own. Even now, our own selves can turn to gilded calves.  Yet amidst the ashes of rebellion, the mercy of God calls again—covenant restored, tablets rewritten, fellowship renewed.

It is commonly assumed that Christianity rests upon the foundation of Judaism. Douglas Murray, best-selling author of The War on the West, recently commented: “Western civilization could not survive the destruction of the Jewish state, because it would be, among much else, the cutting away of the whole tree we're on. Western civilization would die.” It is reasoned that since the Old Testament forms the bedrock that the New Testament and Christ rest on, it would be impossible to do away with Judaism without also threatening the moral, legal, and theological edifice that the Christian West rests upon.But inherent in this assumption is a failure to distinguish what Judaism actually is. Judaism is not just Old Testament only, as if they are only working with the same scriptures and laws that David and the prophets had. Rather, in less than a millennium from the giving of the Law at Sinai, a rabbinic tradition began to develop that cut away at the commands, worship, and reverence due to God. It replaced mercy with loopholes, God's authority with man's tradition, and instead of faith, a convoluted legal system meant to trick God in their favor. By the time of Jesus's ministry, 1500 years removed from the giving of the law, barely anything resembling true religion and worship remained.So today we are unpacking the source of these rabbinic teachings: The Talmud. What does it say? What does it teach? What relation does it have to the lives of the patriarchs—Abraham, Isaac, and Moses?This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors.

We pause our series on "malaki" to present the important context of Israel's idolatry at the foot of Sinai in the incident of the golden calf. As Jenny and I studied this issue over the past several months we began to understand something important that has ramifications for both the Old and New Testament scripture, and all of Christian history and practice ever since. While in this episode we point to a form of human idolatry in its grosser aspects, we fear that the same sort of idolatry pervades today's evangelical churches in a more subtle manner. It seems to Jenny and I that instead of studying the Bible ourselves, many evangelicals become involved in religious fads that promote evangelical "superstars," teachers whose books become all the rage. Then, instead of studying the Bible, we study their books on the Bible. As an academic, this is the distinguishing between primary material - the Bible, and secondary material - books about the Bible. We should be doing much less of the latter, and much more of the former. The Bible is every Christian's primary source material. Like the Bereans, we must make it our priority, our authority, our delight in learning from God directly from His own voice. And this includes podcasts, like ours. If we can help you know God and His word, fantastic! It is our job to work ourselves out of a job! "Return to ME and I will return to you, says the LORD of hosts." Malachi 3:7. We really want YOU to study God's word, to listen to His voice and obey. This week we end our parenthetical study on idolatry, looking at idolatry of objects, places and processes. I can't wait to get back to God's messenger! Either God is God, or ... He is not With our Transcendent GOD – Being, Truth and Value – there can be NO COMPROMISE We are the "neo-Fundies," unashamed and proudly proclaiming God's Word as Truth, Life and Light!

God's holy presence calls His people to prepare their hearts. When He gave the Law at Sinai, the people made ready to meet Him. How do you prepare to stand before a holy God? Join Pastor Steve as he shares how we are to live in light of His holiness.

In Deuteronomy 33, Moses offers his final blessing to the twelve tribes of Israel before his death. Unlike his earlier speeches filled with laws and warnings, this chapter is filled with prophetic declarations of favor, strength, and destiny. Moses exalts God as the One who led them from Sinai and then speaks unique words over each tribe—words that reflect their identity, history, and future purpose. It is a moment of divine legacy, where a faithful leader releases encouragement, hope, and spiritual inheritance to a nation about to enter the Promised Land without him. #PropheticBlessing #SpiritualCovering #SendMeRadioBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sendme-radio--732966/support.

PLEASE FILL OUT OUR SURVEY: https://bit.ly/BLNOlistenersurveyPicking up from last week's cliffhanger, Rabbi Fohrman and Imu tackle an uncomfortable and paradoxical question: How can a perfect being—God—choose vulnerability? This unsettling concept seems to be at the heart of the parallels they uncover between Genesis 27 and the Revelation narrative. By analyzing the blast of the shofar at Sinai alongside Esav's anguished cry, they explore what it means for God, the perfect being, to open Himself to vulnerability.This paradox leads them to a deeper understanding of the Ten Commandments and their articulation. Through this reflection, Rabbi Fohrman and Imu reveal how God's first commandments speak to profound truths about divine love, family dynamics, and the nature of idolatry. What does Jacob's invocation of God's name reveal about the third commandment? And how might Isaac's relationship with his sons offer insights into our own connection with the divine?Join Rabbi Fohrman and Imu as they unpack these questions and show how the Torah's most foundational laws emerge from one of its most complex family dramas.For more on Rabbi Fohrman's reading of the deception story, see this essay from his book Genesis: A Parsha Companion, as well as this video Why Did Rebecca Trick Her Husband Isaac.

In this powerful and refreshingly playful conversation, Dr. Tina Payne Bryson returns to talk about The Way of Play—her newest book and a much-needed reminder that play isn't just fun, it's foundational. We dive into the science and soul of play—from its impact on brain development and emotional intelligence to how it builds lifelong connection and resilience. We also discuss why roughhousing isn't risky, how to play when you're too tired to try, and why letting kids lead the way in play is so important.Purchase her book HEREI WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

Exodus 33:18-23 — Revivals are exceptional and unusual. They are rare moments in which God's glory passes by in an especially sensible way. In this sermon on the sovereignty of God in revival from Exodus 33:18–23, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones points out that Moses experienced a moment like this on the top of Mt. Sinai where he was able to know the character of God. There may be times when Christians are drawn towards the spectacular—this is innate in human beings. Dr. Lloyd-Jones challenges the listener not to seek the spectacle that comes with revival, but rather to seek to know the character of God. Dr. Lloyd-Jones gives a helpful overview of the various names of God in order to show how they inform who God is. For instance, when God calls Himself “I AM,” He declares Himself as the self-existent, everlasting One. God establishes a covenant with His people, and it is based completely upon who He is. He is the righteous redeemer who loves His own. By His grace and in His sovereignty, God chooses when revival comes, where it comes, and to whom it comes. Listen as Dr. Lloyd-Jones preaches on the sovereignty of God in revival.

In this episode, we welcome Titus Kennedy back to the show for an in-studio interview. He is a field archaeologist that has been involved in excavations and survey projects at several archaeological sites in biblical lands, including directing and supervising multiple projects spanning the Bronze Age through the Byzantine period. He wrote the new book “The Essential Archaeological Guide to Bible Lands”, and he previously authored “Excavating the Evidence for Jesus” and “Unearthing the Bible”. In this interview, we discuss what led to him becoming a professional archaeologist, the biggest misconceptions about the work an archaeologist does, why so many historical roads lead back to Egypt, why people are so interested in the lost secrets of ancient civilizations, how his faith in Christ propelled him towards excavating biblical lands, how archaeology continues to prove the reliability of the Bible, what happens when an archaeological discovery differs from popular belief or narratives, where he thinks Mt. Sinai is, where he would choose to dig if he could excavate any sight on planet earth, and much more. Let's get into it… Episode notes and links HERE.

Welcome to Day 2619 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2619 – New Testament Orientation - What is the New Testament? Putnam Church Message – 04/27/2025 Sermon Series: New Testament Orientation Message 1: What Is the New Testament?   Last week was our third and final Easter message about The Road to Jerusalem. We asked and answered the question, Why are you looking among the dead for someone who is alive? This week, we will begin our twelve-week New Testament Orientation series. Our first lesson will be: What Is the New Testament? The core verse is: 2 Timothy 3:15-16 What is the New Testament? A Story from Our World Shalom, friends, and grace to you from the one true God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, who has revealed Himself in the face of Yeshua, our Messiah! Think of our journey together in the Old Testament Orientation as walking a long, dusty road stretching centuries. We saw the mighty acts of God, the covenant made on Sinai, the struggles and triumphs of our ancestors, and the longing for a Messiah who would set things right. As we begin this New Testament Orientation, it is as if we have turned a corner on that road, and the landscape, while familiar in some ways, is also breathtakingly new. This is not a separate journey entirely, but rather, as some have rightly said, it is like entering the next chapter of the most important story ever told: the story of God's relentless love and unfolding plan for humanity. Picture yourself as a Hebrew family when Yeshua, the Messiah, came. In our time, things are different than they were for Moses, David, or even the Prophet Malachi, whose voice was the last we heard before a long silence. We live under the watchful, often heavy, eye of Rome. Our world is connected in ways our ancestors could scarcely have imagined. Roman roads crisscross the land, and while they are built for legions and trade, they also carry whispers of a new movement, a new hope centered on Yeshua. Today, we ask a fundamental question: What is this “New Testament”? What are these new letters, these accounts of Yeshua's life and teachings, these writings from the apostles that are now being read in our homes and our gatherings? To understand this, we must first understand how we, the people of this time – those of us steeped in the traditions of Israel and those who have come to faith from among the Gentiles – think about sacred writings and the very words of God. Let us open our hearts and minds, and let us pray. Opening Prayer: Gracious Spirit, the very breath of God, Who hovered over the waters at creation, Who inspired the prophets of old to speak Your truth, We pray that You would open our minds and hearts now. Quiet the anxious thoughts and the distractions of our busy lives. Help us to listen not just with our ears but with our souls. Illuminate these words and bring them to life within us. May they teach, challenge, correct, and train us in righteousness. May they make us wise for salvation through faith in Yeshua, the Messiah. We are like children learning a new song; help us to catch the tune. We are like travelers on a road, wondering where it leads; show us the way. Use this time, this message, to deepen our understanding, To strengthen our faith, and to draw us closer to Your...

What if the Torah provides its own commentary on its most pivotal moments? In this episode, Rabbi Fohrman and Imu continue uncovering a striking web of connections between Jacob's deception in Genesis 27 and the Revelation at Sinai in Exodus 19. As they explore these interwoven parallels, they reveal a profound shift in roles—Father becoming Son, Son becoming Father—and examine how God's choice to reveal Himself through cloud and sound echoes Jacob's own veiled encounter with Isaac.But these parallels aren't just literary—they hold deep theological stakes. If Jacob's disguise at the moment of blessing teaches us something about hidden identities, what does that mean for how we perceive God at Sinai? And by embracing our own limitations, could we, like Yitzchak, learn to truly listen?Check out the scene from Close Encounters of the Third Kind that Rabbi Fohrman referenced in this episode: Watch here. For more on Rabbi Fohrman's reading of the deception story, see this essay from his book Genesis: A Parsha Companion.

As we enter the 2nd month on the biblical calendar, it is a month that speaks of passing through.  Israel passed through the desert this month until the Word was given on Sinai.  The New Testament believers were passing through the resurrection to Pentecost.  Get ready to go through until the outpouring comes to you.  

The roots of Western civilization go all the way back to... Mt. Sinai?! This week, it's Hammer Time as Steve and the gang chat with Newsweek's Josh Hammer about how the Jewish people's past impacts our present culture. The post Josh Hammer | Israel And Civilization | Steve Brown, Etc. appeared first on Key Life.

In today's episode I sit down with Dr. Blaise Aguirre, renowned Harvard psychiatrist to explore the roots of self-hatred and how it differs from everyday self-criticism. We unpack how early experiences—often subtle and unintentional—can shape a child's sense of worth, and what it takes to unlearn those damaging lessons. We talk about how to respond when your child says “I hate myself,” why curiosity matters more than reassurance, and how to help sensitive kids build emotional resilience. Plus: the problem with well-meaning praise, how temperament plays a role, and the metaphor of the “emotional peanut” that every parent should know.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

In today's episode I sit down with with Dr. Tom Hildebrandt, clinical psychologist and director at Mount Sinai's Center for Excellence in Eating and Weight Disorders, to unpack the difference between disordered eating and eating disorders—and why that distinction matters. We dive into how to foster healthy food environments at home, when (and how) to talk to your kids about food and body image, and why regular family meals might be your best defense against future struggles. Plus: the impact of food delivery culture, what to do when kids self-soothe with snacks, and how to respond if you suspect something deeper is going on.Link to Mount Sinai's Center for Excellence in Eating and Weight Disorders, HEREI WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!
