What begins as a sincere desire to understand the Jewish roots of the Christian faith can, in some cases, drift into something far more complicated. In this video, we explore the progression many believers experience as curiosity about the Torah slowly shifts from healthy study to imposed obligation.

By tracing common stages within Torahism (aka Hebrew Roots Movement, Torah-keeping, Torah-observant Christianity) we examine why this trajectory can lead to confusion, division, and a displacement of the gospel.

The video also offers practical guidance for thoughtfully and graciously engaging friends or family members who have embraced Torah observance, with an emphasis on patience, discernment, and keeping Christ at the center.

In Part 17 of our verse-by-verse study through Hebrews, the author turns from warning to encouragement. After some of the most sobering passages in the letter, he reminds his readers of the hope they confessed, the suffering they endured, and the confidence they must not throw away. We’ll see how drawing near to God, holding fast to our hope, and encouraging one another are grounded not in our faithfulness, but in God’s. This is a call to endurance—rooted in Christ, sustained by promise, and confident in what is yet to come.

Recorded Dec 20, 2025 - Enjoy the final episode in our teaching series, "The Biblical Roots of Christmas." This week, we turn to the celebration of Christmas itself—asking not only what we celebrate, but why. We’ll explore how the fulfillment found in Jesus Christ naturally gives rise to joyful remembrance, how the early people of God marked God’s redemptive acts, and what Scripture teaches us about honoring Christ through meaningful celebration.

Let’s rediscover together why Christmas is not merely a tradition to defend or dismiss, but a gospel truth to rejoice in.
