Waving palm branches and still missing the moment
Palm branches, in that setting, carried a very specific meaning. They pointed to the presence of God among His people. They were tied to joy, yes, but not just any joy. They were tied to the joy of God drawing near. The hope of Sukkot looked forward as well as backward. It was not only about remembering the wilderness. It was about anticipating a day when God would once again dwell with His people in a full and lasting way.

Neither Jew nor Greek? How Galatians 3 Welcomes the Nations without Erasing Israel
For many Christians, Galatians 3 feels like the final word on Israel: if Gentiles are Abraham’s offspring by faith, doesn’t that end ethnic and national distinctions? Over time, this reading has drifted into a common assumption—sometimes called “replacement theology”—that the church simply takes Israel’s place. But reading Paul this way strains the story of Scripture and mutes the covenant character of God. The Bible does not pit God’s faithfulness to Israel against His mercy to the nations. It shows both flowing from the same promise.

The Jewish Roots Movement: Where We Align, Where We Don’t, and Why It Matters
There is a growing curiosity among Christians about the Jewish roots of their faith - and for good reason. As followers of Jesus (Yeshua), we are drawn to the original context of the Scriptures, the Jewishness of our Messiah, and the biblical calendar God established long before the church adopted its own rhythms.
Movements like Hebrew Roots, Torah Observant Christianity, and Two-House Theology have emerged out of this hunger. And while we affirm the longing for deeper understanding, it’s important to lovingly clarify where we stand - and where we do not.
