Walk Like a Hebrew
84 episodes - English - Latest episode: 6 months ago - ★★★★★ - 18 ratingsWelcome to Walk Like a Hebrew, the podcast in which we talk with Torah-pursuant Christians from all over about how on earth they got from THERE - wherever that was - to HERE - walking out a life that combines faith in Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah with an emphasis on being set-apart by keeping the Torah of YHVH (God). Torah, commonly translated as "Law," literally means "instructions" in Hebrew. We live by 1 John 2:6, "Whoever claims to abide in Him must walk as Jesus walked." We eat Biblically clean as He did, we observe the Seventh-Day Sabbath and celebrate the Biblical feasts just as He did. How do YOU walk out your faith? Do you walk like an Egyptian? A Babylonian? Like the world? Or like the One who died for you? Let's talk about it!

Rico Cortes - Why Should a Modern Believer Study the Temple? WLAH Episode 41
September 28, 2023 19:00 - 19 minutes - 13.2 MBIn 2022, during the Feast of Matzot (Unleavened Bread) at Safe Haven Farm in Orosi, CA, I sat down with Rico Cortes of Wisdom In Torah Ministries and asked him one compelling question: Why should a modern-day follower of Yeshua (Jesus) bother with a study of the Temple? Here is his answer. Support the show
The Sabbath Day -- Why? How? Should We? WLAH Ep. 40
May 19, 2022 00:00 - 57 minutes - 39.6 MBThis is episode 40, the kickoff to Season 4, and I’m doing something a little different this season. There are some great topics and interviews on deck, I can’t wait! I WILL still be sitting down with people and collecting their stories of how they got from there - wherever that was - to here: Walking out faith like a true crossed-over Hebrew, following in the actual footsteps of our Messiah. But it’s high time I started carrying out one of the original purposes of this podcast, something I’...
Mindy Seta of Messianic Dance Camps International - WLAH Ep. 39
March 31, 2022 11:00 - 28 minutes - 19.6 MBThere are a couple of really big things in this interview that I’m happy to be able to talk about. First, Mindy is Jewish and grew up in a Jewish household, and she tells the story of how she actually came to faith in Jesus as a young wife. Understanding how Jewish people are taught from birth to reject Yeshua as Messiah makes it that much more exciting when a Jewish person realizes they’ve been taught in error. It’s like those of us who grew up in mainstream Christian homes are taught that ...
A Walk of Obedience; or, We Thought We Were in Rebellion - WLAH Ep. 38 John and Karen Kubes
January 26, 2022 13:00 - 35 minutes - 24.7 MBIn John 14:15 we read, “If you love me, keep my commandments.” What does it mean to be obedient to God? How do we decide if we even SHOULD obey, especially in the face of the idea that we cannot earn our salvation, and that obedience is equivalent to attempting to earn our salvation? How would we decide which actions are considered acceptable obedience, and which actions are an attempt to earn salvation? And if you DO decide to obey God, are you in rebellion? My guests in Episode 38 are Jo...

August 04, 2021 07:00 - 28 minutes - 19.6 MBI had an amazing conversation with Ryan and Alisa Nakken of Woodland, California. When we sat down on a windy day during Shavuot in Orosi, California, Ryan was absolutely new to faith and Alisa had very minimal church exposure. By their own admission, they had lived their lives as “heathens”, and had no idea what people were talking about in 2020 when biblical and apocalyptic conspiracy theories were tearing through the country like a virus. We talk about how the tragic circumstances of the ...
