Ancient Roads: CH-1! Bible. Talk. And Walk.

Avi ben Mordechai

ABOUT ME and THIS PODCAST: I am Avinoam ("Avi") ben Mordechai. I am a veteran of the 1970s radio broadcast industry. For me, radio programming was very different when I started as a California "rock jock" radio personality and later, in the 1980s, as a radio programmer and host of secular and religious talk shows. Today, I remain passionate about explaining the biblical texts in a way modern readers can understand and relate to. The biblical studies I engage in through my teaching monologues and, in some cases, interviews with knowledgeable academic researchers are, at their core, Hebraic studies within their cultural context. Often, I try to connect the dots, so to speak, between the biblical Hebrew Bible and the Brit Hadasha (the New Covenant or "New Testament").I aim to help Yehovah's students better understand His Word. I try hard to provide the Almighty Eternal One's students with the tools they need to become thinking, reasoning followers of the Messianic claims and teachings of Yeshua from the Second Temple period of Israel's Judaism. I strive to provide a safe, nurturing, non-judgmental, and advanced learning environment where students of biblical Scripture can learn, grow, and develop in their knowledge of the Word of Yeshua HaMashiach (the promised Messiah for Jews and non-Jews alike) through a personal relationship with Yehovah, the Almighty Eternal One of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. You may freely listen to and download any of the podcasts at your convenience.

Please DO NOT ask questions here because I have no way to respond to your questions. If you have questions, please send an email: questions@cominghome.co.il On today’s show, episode 179, I’m speaking with David L. Jones, who grew up under the umbrella of the Southern Baptist Church in North Carolina, USA. I had a conversation with David about his spiritual journey, from his vocation as Pastor of an Independent Sunday-keeping Baptist Church to pastoring a Seventh-day Sabbath-keeping fellowship located in a high concentration area of the North Carolina Bible Belt. The area has a strong presence of Protestant evangelical and fundamentalist Christians who collectively maintain a strong influence on religious beliefs based on social and political life.  I’ll be speaking with David about his spiritual journey, leading both he and his wife into pursuing a lifestyle according to the Laws of the Mosaic Torah, especially that of observing the Seventh-Day Sabbath and keeping biblical festivals in harmony with the teachings of the Dead Sea Scrolls Zadokite Ecclesiastical Calendar and faithfully adhering to the Torah’s clean and unclean food laws. David and the Baptist Church he was pastoring stopped putting up Christmas Trees and partaking in whole-hog barbecues, the eating of pork shoulders, bacon, and a unique blend of seafoods such as oysters, clams, and shrimp. With all these changes, we’ll learn how they affected not only his immediate family but also how the biblical Torah amazingly touched and changed the lives of the congregation he was pastoring as an Independent North Carolina Baptist Church. Further, we’ll also learn about the Jones Family singers and their love for music in the genres of Southern Gospel and Bluegrass. Please, join me now for my interview with David L. Jones.  Support the show
