It’s never too early to celebrate Christmas by studying Jesus’ First Advent! One truth we often forget at Christmastime is that Jesus’ birth is a Jewish story through and through.

Chris shares a look into …
Jesus came to Earth being fully God and fully human simultaneously. The unique name “Son of Man” ties these two elements of our Savior wonderfully. He used this title to describe Himself many times throughout the Gospels, showing both His humility as a human and His authority as the God of heaven and Earth. As we wrap up our 3-part …
Why is Jesus called the Son of Man? It’s not a name that stirs up thoughts of royalty or majesty like many of His other names do. In fact, it’s used in the Old Testament to refer to lowly humans. Yet this title was used to confront the Gentile school of thought and to portray Jesus in a new, personal …
Jesus has many majestic names: King of Kings, Messiah, High Priest. Yet one we find dozens of times throughout the Gospels is Son of Man. It literally means “human being.” But the Son of Man we see in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John is no mere human. It’s the Lord Jesus, the Son of God in human form. We begin …

On Saturday, October 7, Hamas terrorists launched a surprise attack on Israel, killing hundreds, wounding thousands, and capturing more than 100 hostages. These bloodthirsty terrorists murdered innocent civilians—men, women, and children—and urged Israeli Arabs to do the same to their Jewish countrymen. This week, The Friends of Israel Executive Director Jim Showers explains the horrors of war unfolding in Israel …
David held many remarkable distinctions during his life—shepherd, warrior, psalmist, and king. But his legacy extends beyond these roles in God’s plan for history and the whole world. God made a prophetic promise to David with short- and long-term blessings. The conclusion of our 4-part series on King David centers on the eternal legacy of the man after God’s own …
Does the Old Testament still matter today? Yes, as much as ever—for so many reasons! This week, Meno Kalisher, pastor of the Jerusalem Assembly in Israel, teaches us how Paul used the Old Testament to teach the Jewish people foundational truths about the Law, Jesus’ deity, and the unity of Jews and Gentiles in the church. Meno shares insight from …
The biblical hero David was a man of many talents. We’ve already studied his history as a shepherd and a warrior king. In part 3 of our 4-part series on David, we’ll explore his artistic side as a psalmist and a musician and how his background influenced his writing. David wrote some of Scripture’s most comforting psalms. This week Chris …
