As we prepare our hearts for the upcoming High Holy Days—Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot—we turn our focus to a vital spiritual step: mikvah ( immersion or baptism). In this episode, we explore the deep biblical roots and rich spiritual significance of the mikvah, tracing its meaning from creation and the days of Noah to the immersion of Yeshua (Jesus) in the Jordan River.

We dive into what it truly means to go beneath the living waters: a moment of spiritual cleansing, repentance, public testimony, and complete recommitment to God. Discover how the root of mikvah connects directly to tikvah (hope), offering a powerful picture of death, rebirth, and resurrection life. Whether you are considering immersion for the first time or seeking a fresh beginning in a new season of life, tune in for an insightful teaching, scriptural reflection, and a special worship song centered on the cleansing grace of God.

In this episode, you’ll learn:


The true biblical and linguistic meaning of mikvah and its connection to tikvah (hope).


Why Yeshua’s immersion in Matthew 3 serves as our ultimate model and order of faith.


Surprising historical and RABBINIC perspectives on immersion, rebirth, and spiritual transformation.


Meaningful reasons believers may choose to be re-immersed during key life transitions and new seasons.


Details on upcoming Holy Day services and congregational immersion opportunities.
