Let's spend a moment reflecting on why we give our money, time and resources. Join Illumination as we dig into scriptural references and examples of lavish and scant giving. Which are each of us?
One of our smaller body parts can get us in so much trouble: the tongue. What comes out of our mouths reveal what is in our hearts. How can this be? Do we speak impeccably? Or carelessly? Join Illumination as we explore a teaching from James (Jacob) and Jesus, with the goal of taming this little muscle!
Jodi joins Heather again, this time to share her story of sharing the Gospel message this past summer. If you had a captive audience, what would you say? Are you ready with an answer? 1 Peter 3:15 Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.
Join Illumination in this final feast, Sukkot. The LORD commanded the Israelites to celebrate this moed as a lasting ordinance.

And yet, there is messianic future fulfillment in this God ordained commemoration. Listen to past, present and future in this 5th of the 7 moedim.
Continue to explore the 7 Feasts of the LORD. Join Heather on the 4th Feast, Shavuot, a second harvest celebration. This Shavuot contains powerful biblical fulfillment with an impactful Christian parallel in the Church day of Pentecost. The Wind of God, His very Breath, His Spirit poured out for all who believe. Come Lord Jesus!
