1.16.19

 

Highlights from the 36th Annual Rabbi’s Conference:

“Understanding the Times”

Philippians 3:12—It is not  that I have already obtained it or already reached the goal–no, I am pursuing the goal in order to win the prize offered by Adonai’s upward calling in Messiah Yeshua.”

We as human beings have core longings that need to be met before we can reach our goal. These are: (1) Love, acceptance where we are now in our walk with Yeshua (2) Belonging to a congregation or fellowship  (3) Signifiance, everyone is important  (4) Safety  (5) Security  (6) Purpose,being able to use our gifts in service,  and (7) Understanding, compassion and not judgment.
