Have you ever wondered how ancient traditions can breathe new life into our modern faith practices? Join us, Michael Weedman alongside pastors and teachers, as we embark on a spiritual journey through the layers of Shabbat dinner traditions and their astounding relevance to contemporary church life. We'll tackle the common misconceptions about Easter and share the parallels to the authentic Last Supper, enriched by my personal travels to Israel. The insights from Scott and Teresa's Shabbat dinners for lone soldiers in Jerusalem might just inspire you to rethink your own faith rituals.

As we light the Shabbat candles and pour the wine, the episode illuminates the profound symbolism behind these age-old rituals. We discuss how these practices aren't just routine; they're a deeply spiritual act that brings us closer to the holiness of God. From the gentle glow of the candles to the sanctified sips of wine and the hidden secrets beneath the covered challah, every gesture is steeped in significance, connecting us to a higher purpose and inviting us to rest in Jesus, our Lord of the Sabbath.

Approaching Passover, we'll share how our church community is preparing for a special Shabbat dinner that's both a reflection of our roots and a nod to the five-fold ministry's place in today's spiritual landscape. Learn how we weave the humility of foot washing and the intimacy of communion into this season of remembrance. By the end of our discussion, you might find yourself considering how these ancient customs can enrich your own spiritual path, no matter where you are on your journey of faith.
