DR HOLLISA ALEWINE – Footsteps of Messiah Part 2 (The Wilderness Separation from Mystery Babylon)

Mark Call – Parsha “Toldot” teaching from Shabbat Shalom Mesa
When it comes to understanding what has gone so HIDEOUSLY wrong wrong in the world today, and especially what was once arguably "one nation under God," to a place where "two nations struggle" -- and may in fact be about ready for open civil war -- Mark will suggest...
Now Is The Time w/Rabbi Steve Berkson | The Heart of the Matter | Part 51 | 1 Corinthians
What we find in this letter from the Apostle Paul to the believers in Corinth is that strife had risen up among the assembly over which teacher was better than the other and which teacher someone followed, turning it into a status issue. • If Paul were here today and...
DR HOLLISA ALEWINE – SHIR HASHIRIM: Footsteps of Messiah Part 1
In view of the increasingly troubled time we are in, I thought it worthwhile to present a Sukkot “after-party” encouragement to begin preparing for Passover. In fact, if you’re not already thinking about Passover, you’re behind!
It is traditional to read the Song of Songs during the Passover week. Its main theme is resurrection, but incredibly, the ancient sages’ commentaries link the Song to other prophecies. Their expectation of the ingathering of the exiles, the nature of Messiah, the times in which he will return, and the judgments are incredibly contemporary to what is happening to the fig tree Israel today and even headline news. This week and next, we will shine the spotlight on some of the expectation concerning the fig tree prophecy contained in
2:13 The fig tree has ripened its fruit,
And the vines in blossom have given forth their fragrance.
Arise, my darling, my beautiful one, and come along!
Mark Call – Parsha “Chayei Sarah” teaching from Shabbat Shalom Mesa

Now Is The Time w/Rabbi Steve Berkson | The Heart of the Matter | Part 50 | Romans
Continuing in the Apostle Paul’s letter to those of The Way in Rome (Romans), chapter 10, Rabbi Steve Berkson poses the question that comes out of verse 4 – are you doing what you’re doing just to look righteous to others, or are you doing it to look like Messiah...
DR HOLLISA ALEWINE – VAYERA (And appeared)
The recurring number in the text, whether through symbol or literal number, is 3. The tree represents the number three and resurrection as well as the third spirit of Adonai, etzah, or counsel in English. The seeds and trees bearing fruit were created on the Third Day of Creation. A tree in Hebrew is etz. It’s no coincidence that the Spirit of Counsel and trees share the same root. Both symbolize resurrection. The Spirit of Counsel is not so much about GIVING advice, but to “meekly RECEIVE the implanted Word of God.” (Ja 1:21) If never, received, then Counsel will not sprout, a real roadblock to resurrection.
Mark Call – Parsha “Vayera” teaching from Shabbat Shalom Mesa
Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a two-part look at parsha (Vayera, Gen/Bereshiet chapters 18 through 22) where some of the arguably most important events in the Torah play out, and then prefigure events that will again play out, even in the same...
Greater Exodus & Regathering to the Land
We thought we could use some good news from the Good Book! So this week we are rebroadcasting our program regarding the Greater Exodus which starts out with the judgement of the Daughter of Babylon (which we can see on the horizon) but leads to the Regathering of All of YHWH’s people! So as we go through our current tribulation we need to keep our eyes on the glorious future He has planned for those who wait on Him!! Putting the pieces of a biblical puzzle together from primarily Isaiah & Revelation plus Jeremiah, Ezekiel and more! What does scripture say this greater exodus & gathering will look like? What will the land of Israel look like once the remnant of the whole House of Israel is regathered back to the land? Who’s doing the regathering & what’s happening in the rest of the world while this exodus from Babylon is taking place?
