Welcome to Walk Like a Hebrew, the brand-new podcast in which we talk with people from all over about how on earth they got from THERE — wherever that was — to HERE — walking a life of faith that combines Torah Keeping with faith in Yeshua the Messiah.

Today I’m telling my OWN story of how I came to find myself in this walk of faith, and how I dragged my family along with me.

Here are links for the resources I share in the podcast:

This week's podcast features an interview with Jeanette McHenry of Northern California. This interview was done with my iPhone at a gathering of Torah-keepers just before Thanksgiving in 2019. The audio quality isn't great--lots of things happening in the background!--but the story is both hilarious and poignant!

Here are some definitions of words that may not be familiar:

Shabbat: Sacred time, set apart by God at creation, that begins every Friday at sundown and ends Saturday just after sundown. During this time, no work may be done as per the 4th commandment, Exodus 20:8-11

Oneg: A Shabbat tradition in which friends and relatives gather to eat food prepared ahead of time, sing, dance and spend time together. May include a lecture/sermon or Biblical discussion.

Vanessa talks about her early experiences in Worldwide and United. She is referring to the Worldwide Church of God which split sometime in the 1980s-1990s into many different groups, one of which is the United Church of God.

Episode 7 — An interview with Ron and Pam Custer of Cedar Ridge, California, Part 1

My husband and I love Ron and Pam Custer dearly, and not only do we owe them more than we can ever hope to repay, we also count them among our very best friends and mentors. In this episode of Walk Like a Hebrew, Ron and Pam recount their 30+ year journey from their Jehovah’s Witness and New Age Baptist backgrounds (apparently New Age Baptist IS a real thing), to their encounter with the legendary Art Katz, to their time at City of Refuge, a home for unwed mothers. Meet some amazing characters and learn some tremendously important things along the way. Then don't forget to come back next week for Part 2.

Ok, this is just for fun. In a 90 minute conversation with Ron and Pam Custer, we took a TON of detours from our interview agenda, and some of the results were pretty funny. I thought it might be interesting to share this little snippet of conversation when we started talking about worship dancing (which, I'm sorry to say, didn't make it into the final podcast cut) and the result of including my grandsons in the melee...errrr...dancing. :-)

Enjoy!!
