    Unlearning to Relearning

    What if the problem isn’t Scripture… but what we thought it said? In this episode of The Bridge, I sit down with Pastor Derek Anglin to talk about unlearning what we thought we knew—and rediscovering the Bible with fresh understanding. So many of us were taught simplified versions of Scripture. But when we revisit it with context and curiosity, we often realize there’s more. This conversation is about returning—not questioning truth, but seeing it more clearly. 🎙️ About The Bridge Honest conversations exploring the shared foundations between Judaism and Christianity—and helping bring understanding and healing to the disconnect. 💬 Question for you: Have you ever realized you misunderstood something in Scripture? #TheBridgePodcast #BibleStudy #FaithJourney #JewishRoots #ChristianFaith

    It Was Always the Plan

    Most of us have only scratched the surface of what God’s covenants really mean. In this episode of The Bridge, I sit down with Pastor Thomas Lewis to unpack one of the most important — and often misunderstood — foundations of our faith: God’s promises to Israel and what they mean for us today. Together, we explore: Why God’s covenants are unbreakable and ongoingThe difference between conditional and unconditional promisesWhy the idea that the Church replaced Israel has caused deep confusionHow believers are grafted into God’s promises — not a replacement of themWhat this means for how we read Scripture and understand God’s planThis conversation brings clarity to questions many believers wrestle with: What is the role of Israel today? How do the Old and New Testaments connect? And what has always been God’s plan? At the heart of it all is this truth: God is faithful to His promises — yesterday, today, and forever. If you’ve ever felt confused about covenants, prophecy, or how it all fits together… this episode will help you see Scripture with fresh clarity and deeper understanding. 🎙️ The Bridge exists to bring understanding and healing to the disconnect between Jews and Christians — and this conversation is right at the heart of that mission.

    Transformed by The Word

    Most of us grow up with assumptions about Christianity and Judaism that can keep us from truly understanding each other's faiths — until a moment of genuine connection shifts everything. Today's guest Stephanie Crane and Joyce share 14 years of friendship, exploring how faith, cultural identity, and spiritual growth intertwine in surprising ways, revealing the profound impact of curiosity, humility, and ongoing learning. You'll discover how biblical words like "fear" and "convert" take on deeper meaning through the original Hebrew context, reshaping how we see God's reverence and our transformation. Joyce shares her journey from cultural Judaism to embracing Christ —highlighting the importance of inward change over mere labels—and Stephanie shares how real growth involves daily repentance, grace, and a desire to grow closer to Jesus. Both women discuss the power of Bible study—not just as knowledge, but as a catalyst for personal renewal. We break down the challenge of navigating cultural Christianity, the importance of authentic community, and the role of prayer, meditation, and contemplative practices in deepening faith. Stephanie and Joyce emphasize that true transformation is continuous—an ongoing process of leaning into God's love, embracing humility, and sharing compassion more freely, even for those we might initially judge. Their candid conversation demonstrates how curiosity about others' faith can foster unity, break down stereotypes, and inspire growth, regardless of background. This episode is a powerful reminder that faith is a journey of understanding, repentance, and love—and that the most meaningful faith conversations happen when we listen with open hearts. Perfect for believers seeking fresh insight or those curious about how faith can bridge differences and heal divisions. Tune in to hear how genuine connection and continual learning can transform not only how we see others, but also how we see ourselves in God's greater story.
