Living In Praise

Living In Praise

Too often, we only turn to God when we’re struggling—crying out for help in moments of pain, fear, or confusion. But what about when things are going well? In this episode of A Jew Like Me, we explore why it's just as important to praise God in our seasons of success. Our blessings are not accidents; they are divine gifts. Let’s talk about giving thanks, staying grounded, and remembering the Source of it all, even when life feels easy.

Rituals, Politics, and Idols: Jeremiah 7 for Today

🕍 In this episode of A Jew Like Me, we take a deep dive into Jeremiah 7—a powerful and often uncomfortable chapter that challenges us to examine where our loyalties truly lie. Are we genuinely honoring God, or have we unknowingly replaced obedience with rituals, habits, politics, careers, and even government? What does idolatry look like today, and how can even the most sincere people fall into it? Join me as we unpack the prophet’s warning to ancient Judah and explore how it still speaks to us today. It’s not just about avoiding carved images—it’s about aligning our lives with what God actually wants, not what’s convenient or traditional. 🕯️ A heartfelt and thought-provoking conversation for anyone seeking a deeper, more authentic walk with the Creator. #AJewLikeMe #Jeremiah7 #BiblicalTruth #ModernIdolatry #FaithfulLiving #TorahWisdom

It is time to go beyond general discussions of anti-antisemitism and speak about the ways it truly impacts in our daily lives - specifically when it comes to Shabbat observance.
