Episode 243 of The Truth Response.
What is Messianic Judaism, and how does faith in Jesus connect with Jewish identity and tradition? In this episode, we sit down with Hadassa to hear her personal journey of discovering her Jewish heritage while remaining rooted in faith in Yeshua (Jesus) as Messiah.
Together, we explore the role of the Torah in a believer’s life, the difference between identity and salvation, and the important truth that faith in Christ alone saves. The conversation also addresses common misunderstandings about Messianic believers and wrestles with important questions about calling, heritage, and how the Old Testament still shapes our understanding of God today.
Clarity in chaos. Bringing hope to a chaotic world.
This episode offers thoughtful perspective, biblical clarity, and a reminder that what matters most is not religious performance, but a heart fully anchored in Christ.

Welcome to One Little Candle. In today's very important episode, host Rebecca unpacks the challenging topic of immigration, focusing on the emotional, political, and spiritual divisions it sparks within families, communities and sometimes, even churches.
Rebecca encourages listeners to move beyond reactionary politics and media-driven outrage, instead approaching the issue of illegal immigration with empathy, discernment, and a biblical foundation.
Drawing on scripture and personal stories, Rebecca explores how Christians can balance compassion with respect for law and order, and why spiritual maturity is essential in such complex debates. With the aim of bringing clarity and wisdom to a highly charged topic, this episode invites you to consider how to be a light in the darkness—grounded in truth, love, and genuine understanding.

Love is greater than power. In a culture that often measures spiritual health by manifestation, platform, and influence, Scripture recalibrates our priorities. In 1 Corinthians 13, Paul makes it unmistakably clear: prophecy will pass away, tongues will cease, knowledge will fade… but love never ends. Gifts are real and good, but they are temporary. Love reflects the eternal nature of God Himself. If our pursuit of power ever outruns our pursuit of Christlike character, we have missed the point.
This episode wrestles honestly with revival culture, spiritual gifting, and the sobering words of Jesus in Matthew 7. Power without love is noise. Ministry without intimacy is empty. In the end, what remains is not how impressive we were, but whether we reflected the heart of the King.

After Jesus had become indignant when His disciples were rebuking people who were bringing children to Jesus, He then says that you must become like a child to enter the Kingdom of God. Now in the passage for our consideration, a rich young man, said to be in a ruler position, comes to Jesus asking the wrong question. "What must I do to inherit eternal life?" How will Jesus answer him?
