5 Minute Torah - Mishpatim - Are Gentiles Really Dogs?
02/21/25 • 10 min
In Matthew 15, Yeshua calls a Gentile woman a "dog". Is this term racist? Was Yeshua racist? How do we reconcile his treatment of this Gentile woman with his character and mission? This week's Torah portion just might hold the key to unlock this door for us. Join me for the 5 Minute Torah of Mishpatim.

Code of Confidence - Part 2
Last week, we explored faith, trust, and the power of stepping forward—even when fear whispers what if? Instead, we embraced EVEN IF. Even if circumstances seem impossible, even if doubt creeps in, we take the step, because we know God is with us.
But here’s the challenge: if we trust God, why do we struggle to trust ourselves? Why do we hesitate, watching from the sidelines while others take bold action?
This week, we’re going deeper—moving from spiritual belief to practical confidence. We’re confronting the fear that holds us back, shaking off self-doubt, and stepping into the people God created us to be.
Because confidence isn’t arrogance—it’s courage. And courage moves the waters.
