As we enter the month of Tishrei—the seventh month of the Hebrew calendar—hosts Shelley and June Volk dive deep into the spiritual significance of the Feasts of the Lord. From the fulfillment of the Spring Feasts in Jesus' first coming to the forward-looking promise of the Fall Feasts, this episode offers a roadmap for spiritual rededication. Learn about the Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah / Rosh Hashanah), the 10 Days of Awe, and the powerful family tradition of Tashlich, where sins are symbolically cast into the sea. Discover how these sacred, appointed times serve as a call for both Jewish and Gentile believers to align their hearts with God.
Key Takeaways:
The Spring Feasts Fulfilled: Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, and Pentecost (Shavuot) all directly point to Christ's sacrifice, sinless nature, resurrection, and the sending of the Holy Spirit.
The Prophetic Fall Feasts: The Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, and Feast of Tabernacles point toward the end times, global repentance, and the ultimate gathering of God's people.
The 10 Days of Awe & Tashlich: Starting on Rosh Hashanah, this 10-day season invites believers to reflect, seek forgiveness, and symbolically cast away sins—a practice rooted in the book of Micah.
A Universal Call to Renewal: The appointed times of the Lord are not strictly for one background; they offer every believer an opportunity to rededicate their life, purge hidden sins, and prepare for the Lord's return.
