Who do we trust? Are we trustworthy? The theme of trust and faithfulness is central to the scriptural narrative. Jeff Patton rehearses the story of Saul and asks us if we are faithful to God’s instructions when in a tight spot when our “resources” are slipping away. Faithfulness has its rewards so, “What is the power of trust?”

What do the Beatitudes, Pentecost, and the book of Malachi have in common? Jeff Patton gives an encouraging message about the common thread through Hebrew and Greek scriptures of the cleansing power of God’s spirit. Join him as he explains the Judeo Christian perspective on the meaning of Pentecost, and the transforming power of the Spirit and the commandments. And the debts (cheirographon) that have been washed away by the cleansing power of Christ’s sacrifice.

Following in the footsteps of the disciples, Judeo Christians observe Pentecost, this most important festival that provides the spiritual links between Jewish and Gentile believers. This Holy Day cuts to the heart of Christ’s message for all about the commandments and way of life that is motivated by the Spirit of God. Jeff examines the practices in the Greek and Hebrew scriptures to help us understand the deep spiritual implications of this festival season.
