When David fled to the cave of Adullam, what did the Lord do? David had a messy life at this point. He was anointed the king of Israel, but a king without land, power, influence, or a throne. With Saul seeking to kill him, David seeks a hiding place and refuge. Yet, the Lord changes David’s story when 400 men find David and commit to following him. How does this story interconnect with the story of our life in messianic faith? What happens when we begin to follow Yeshua/Jesus? Give a listen. 

*apologies, I looked at the wrong schedule for this week, the portion is Acharei Mot. We will cover it next week.

We continue to consider the meaning of spiritual leprosy, and how we may find evidence of that today. What is the opposite of the “evil tongue”? Are we expected to just say nice things in order to be nice? Or, does the Lord show us something profound as we “love our neighbor” as ourselves? We consider the words of the Torah, Messiah Yeshua/Jesus, and the apostles of our faith. Give a listen.
