Chodesh Av 2018
I wanted to get this posted at the beginning of the month of Av, but I’ve been too busy to edit! Every year as I am intentional about celebrating the Moonthly Cycle, Abba has me focus on a particular area, a lot of which is not in my book on celebrating the New Moon. I […]

Moonthly Cycle
For the past five years, I’ve been very intentional about celebrating the new moon. One result was publishing my first book, The Biblical New Moon: A Guide for Celebrating in 2016. Another unexpected outcome was discovering patterns within the monthly cycle. I’ll get to that in moment, but first, I’ll give you a comparison. Most of […]

Counting the Omer & Shavuot
Chag Sameach Shavuot! This year, I wrote two articles in a newsletter format. (I used this same format last Rosh Hashanah.) My plan was to print and give these out at our gathering, but they became too lengthy. If you listened to recent Renewed podcasts, you have some idea of where my thoughts have been […]

Renewed Podcasts

What Do Costumes Have to Do With the Book of Esther?
Recently, I participated in a “Table Topics” discussion with Jeremy Legatzke on Hebraic Roots Network. (I’m sure it will air pretty soon.) The topic was Purim. Jeremy prepared several questions that tend to be controversial about this Feast of the People. One question was about the tradition of dressing up or wearing costumes. Pondering this question […]

Torah Portion: Beshalach, A New Creation
Exodus 13:17-17:16, Judges 4:4-5:31 In my last post on Chodesh Shevat, trees and fruit, and tasting that fruit were the central theme. I used the analogy of people being trees that produce fruit to bring out a deeper spiritual meaning for the new month, the New Year for Trees, and living a life devoted to God. […]

Chodesh Shevat: Taste and See
Ps. 34:8 (NASB) O taste and see that the LORD is good; How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him! The eleventh Hebrew month is called Shevat in Zechariah 1:7. Shevat is a cognate of shevet; meaning branch, rod, scepter, scion, staff, and tribe.[1] In the Land of Israel, Shevat gives the first indicators […]

A Prophetic Whirlwind
Back this summer, Dr. Deb Wiley and I had the pleasure of interviewing Onleilove Alston of Prophetic Whirlwind on Renewed radio.[1] At the time, she was planning a trip to Nigeria and was in the process of writing a book called, Prophetic Whirlwind: Uncovering the Black Biblical Destiny. She will join us again on Renewed […]

Highlight on Doorkeeper Ministries
Hebrew Nation Radio’s Renewed program has given me an opportunity to meet (even if sometimes it’s only virtual) some amazing people in Adonai’s Kingdom. Kelly Ferrari Mills is one of those precious ones. The story of how Kelly and I first connected is a neat testimony of just how creative Adonai is — He will […]
