When was the last time you witnessed one of God’s miracles?The Red Sea isn’t parting in front of us like in Bible days and, if you listen to the news today, it can be difficult to see God’s hand at work in our world. But why do we assume miracles are ancient history that only happened during Bible times?Yael Eckstein explains that while some of the miracles of the Bible happened in front of everyone, others were more hidden. But hidden miracles are no less wondrous than those that are plain to see. And, as people of faith, it’s up to us to see every miracle—from our hearts that beat, to our eyes that see. If we look closely, we’ll see that God’s miracles are all around us—listen now!And listen to more of Yael’s teachings from the Bible on her daily podcast, The Chosen People.

How to Build Eternal Wealth
What does it really mean to be wealthy?In today’s episode, Yael Eckstein explores the biblical story of Korah, a man so wealthy that he got a false sense of importance and began a rebellion against Moses—and against God Himself. Do you know what happened next? Let’s just say it didn’t end well for Korah.While most of us know that money is finite, and not eternal, it’s easy to lose sight of this during everyday life. But, as Yael shares, if we count our good deeds instead of our money, we’ll discover how truly wealthy we all are in God’s eyes! Listen now!And listen to more of Yael’s teachings from the Bible on her daily podcast, The Chosen People.

Why Christians Support Israel
“Your book is our book. Your heroes are our heroes. Your values are our values.”After years of helping grow the unprecedented Christian support we see for Israel and the Jewish people we see today, that is the answer that Rev. Dr. Johnnie Moore has long heard for why this special relationship has happened—and is still growing.The special friendship between Christians and Jews is certainly needed now more than ever, too, says Rev. Moore in this conversation with The Fellowship’s Yael Eckstein. Moore details his work fighting anti-Semitism—which is on the rise—as he also works to help persecuted Christians.With work that has helped people of faith in America, in Israel, and all around the world, Moore helped pave the way for the historic Abraham Accords, has served on the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom in the past two American presidencies, sits on The Fellowship’s board, and is a guiding light to people of faith everywhere.Join Yael for this conversation with a Christian friend of Israel and the Jewish people whose lifework is to spread this friendship, this fellowship, and this faith.For more information on today’s episode visit mybiblicalroots.org.Listen to Yael Eckstein on The Chosen People.

On the Ground, Saving Lives
While The Fellowship does much of its lifesaving work in the Holy Land of Israel, we help God’s children whenever and wherever they find themselves in need. For more than three decades—and especially since the ongoing Russian war in Ukraine began in 2022—much of that work has been done in the former Soviet Union (FSU).Bishop Paul Lanier has made many trips to visit Fellowship-supported projects in Ukraine, and to visit with and provide aid to Jewish beneficiaries in the war-torn country. And Gadi Teichman Dan, Sr. Director of Content in The Fellowship’s Israel office, has not only made many such trips himself, he is an Israeli who immigrated from the region as a child.Gadi sat down with Bishop Lanier to discuss what they’ve witnessed and experienced firsthand on the ground in Ukraine, what life is like for Ukraine’s Jewish communities, and what hope is provided by Fellowship aliyah flights.Join these two men of faith and action for this important discussion about what Jews are experiencing around the world—and what The Fellowship and our faithful friends are doing to save their lives.For more information on today’s episode visit mybiblicalroots.org.And listen to Yael Eckstein and Bishop Lanier on The Chosen People.
