    Why Does It Seem That Christians Are Turning Against The Jewish People

    Why does it seem that more Christians are turning against the Jewish people? In this thought-provoking conversation, I sit down with Messianic Jewish author, speaker, and founder of Shalom in Messiah, Olivier Melnick, to explore one of the most difficult questions facing the Church today. Together we discuss: • Why antisemitism has never truly disappeared • The spiritual battle behind antisemitism • Replacement theology and its impact on the Church • Why many Christians are distancing themselves from Israel and the Jewish people • What Scripture actually says about God's covenant with Israel • Practical ways Christians can stand with and support the Jewish community today Whether you're Jewish, Christian, or simply searching for truth, this conversation is an invitation to slow down, open the Bible, ask difficult questions, and seek understanding with humility and grace. I pray this episode encourages you to study God's Word for yourself and to be a bridge of understanding in a world that often chooses division. 🔔 Subscribe for more conversations exploring the Jewish roots of the Christian faith and building understanding between Jews and Christians. 🌉 Connect with The Bridge: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheBridgePodcast Learn more about Shalom in Messiah: https://shalominmessiah.org #TheBridgePodcast #OlivierMelnick #Antisemitism #JewishRoots #Israel #Christianity #BibleStudy #ReplacementTheology #Faith #SeekTruth

    The Ethiopian Jewish Story Most People Have Never Heard

    People say Jews are white Europeans. Tali Aynalem is Ethiopian, Israeli, and Jewish. In this episode of The Bridge, Tali shares the remarkable story of Ethiopian Jews, her life in Israel, and why she has chosen to use her voice to speak out against antisemitism, misinformation, and the growing misconceptions surrounding Jewish identity and the Jewish homeland. Many people have never heard the story of the Beta Israel community or the extraordinary efforts that brought thousands of Ethiopian Jews home to Israel. Tali helps us better understand that history while also discussing the challenges of navigating today's social media landscape, where false narratives often spread faster than truth. We discuss: 🔹 The history of Ethiopian Jews (Beta Israel) 🔹 Operation Moses and Operation Solomon 🔹 Growing up Ethiopian and Israeli 🔹 Antisemitism and misinformation online 🔹 Misconceptions about Jews, Israel, race, and identity 🔹 Why understanding history matters 🔹 The importance of speaking truth with courage Whether you're Jewish, Christian, or simply someone seeking to better understand these issues, this conversation offers a perspective that many people have never heard and a reminder of the importance of seeking truth rather than repeating assumptions.

    Jesus is Jewish: Why The Disconnect?

    In this episode of The Bridge, I sit down with Ethel Chadwick, host of Bagels & Blessings, worship leader, author, and longtime voice in the Messianic Jewish community. Raised in a traditional Jewish home, Ethel never expected that opening a New Testament would change the course of her life. What began as curiosity led her to discover something she had never been told—that Jesus, His disciples, and the earliest believers were Jewish. Together we discuss: • Ethel's journey to faith in Yeshua (Jesus) • Discovering the Jewishness of Jesus • Why so many people miss the Jewish context of Scripture • The connection between Jews and Gentiles in God's family • The growth of the Messianic Jewish movement • Finding community, healing, and purpose in Messiah • Why understanding our faith's Jewish roots matters Whether you're Jewish, Christian, both, neither, or simply searching, this conversation is an invitation to explore the rich biblical context that helps bring Scripture to life. 📖 Featured Guest: Ethel Chadwick 🌐 Bagels & Blessings: http://bagelsandblessings.com/site/ 📚 Mama Ethel's Guide to Love and Healthy Relationships: https://a.co/d/fP1qwNP Connnect with the Bridge https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573266220003 🎙️ Listen to The Bridge: Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5GyAdwrVOhEcyYJQEc68Sy?si=b603dc6b73b94648 Apple https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-bridge/id1879522926 YouTube https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLK9_zbwp5VqkwOk8LxcTk_OXBP3-lMYZz&si=nVkoUsbXDO3rBomL Spotify https://open.spotify.com/episode/13cZnRZMTP89jRi8ji2NS8?si=6a67fb3fe2fa4245 Apple  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/history-islam-israel-the-battle-most-people-dont-see/id1879522926?i=1000771690653 Amazon Music https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/1aff6dd6-dcdd-4524-a7e3-8db39e4d0c82/the-bridge iHeart Radio https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-bridge-332581951 💛 About The Bridge: The Bridge exists to build understanding, compassion, and healing between Jews and Christians by exploring faith, Scripture, history, and the Jewish roots of Christianity.

    History, Islam, Israel & The Battle Most People Don't See

    History leaves clues. In this episode of The Bridge, I sit down with historian, author, and speaker Bill Federer for a fascinating conversation exploring the historical, spiritual, and cultural forces that continue shaping our world today. Together we discuss: • The historical development of Islam and its impact on world history • The origins of Zionism and the modern State of Israel • Why understanding history matters when interpreting current events • The rise of anti-Zionism and shifting cultural narratives • The relationship between faith, culture, and politics • Biblical patterns of repentance, judgment, and restoration • Why so many people seem confused about what is happening in the world today Whether you agree with every perspective shared or not, I hope this conversation encourages you to ask questions, dig deeper, examine Scripture, learn from history, and ultimately seek God. One of the themes that stood out most to me is that history isn't just about the past—it helps us understand the present and prepare for the future. While much of this conversation explores history, Israel, Islam, and current events, Bill ultimately points us back to something even more important: our need for God, the truth of Scripture, and the hope found in Him. If you're Jewish, Christian, both, neither, or simply searching for understanding, you're welcome here. 💛 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ABOUT BILL FEDERER Bill Federer is a nationally known historian, bestselling author, speaker, and researcher whose work focuses on faith, culture, history, and current events.

    The Power of A Praying Parent

    What happens when years of rebellion meet the faithful prayers of a parent? In this episode of The Bridge, I sit down with Eli Dove to hear his powerful testimony of loss, addiction, surrender, and redemption. Eli shares how the prayers of his parents continued even when he was running from God, how grief and brokenness eventually brought him to a place of humility, and how the Lord patiently transformed his life through grace, discipleship, and obedience. We discuss: • The power of a praying parent • Returning to God after years of rebellion • Grief, addiction, and healing • Humility, surrender, and obedience • Why discipleship matters • Searching for truth in all the wrong places • Finding identity in Christ • Answering God's call to missions Eli also shares about his upcoming 11-week mission trip to Alaska, where he will be serving children and communities facing isolation, addiction, and hopelessness while helping point them toward the hope found in Jesus Christ. One of my favorite moments from our conversation was when Eli said: "It took one loss to send me away from God, and another loss to humble me enough to come back." Whether you're praying for a child, a spouse, a friend, or someone who seems far from God, I pray this conversation encourages you to keep praying, keep trusting, and never lose hope. 💛 If you're Jewish, Christian, both, neither, or searching — you belong here.

    Trusting God When Nothing Makes Sense

    In this episode of The Bridge, Joyce sits down with Christy Dragotta for a powerful and honest conversation about faith, surrender, fear, trust, and learning to truly know the character of God. Christy shares her personal journey of stepping away from real estate and following the Lord into unexpected new adventures— and what it looked like to trust God even when nothing made sense. Together, Joyce and Christy talk about anxiety, obedience, authenticity in our relationship with God, and why faith is not about pretending we have it all together. This conversation is a reminder that God is still good even in uncertainty, and that sometimes the hardest seasons become invitations into something deeper. Topics discussed include: • Trusting God in uncertainty • Fear, anxiety, and surrender • Being honest with God • Hearing God’s voice and following His leading • Identity, calling, and obedience • God’s character and faithfulness • Learning to lean on God instead of ourselves “I don’t know what’s ahead, but I do know Your character, God. And You aren’t a liar and You’re good and You want what’s good for me.” If this episode encouraged you, please like, comment, subscribe, and share.

    I Went to Israel Anti-Israel… Then Everything Changed

    With a very anti-Israel perspective, Anna Beth Havenar never expected her first trip to Israel to completely challenge everything she thought she knew. In this powerful and honest conversation, Anna Beth shares her journey from viewing Israel through a one-sided lens to discovering a much more complex, human, and deeply spiritual reality after spending years living, studying, and traveling throughout Israel, the West Bank, Jordan, and Egypt. We talk about: ✨ What surprised her most when she first arrived in Israel ✨ The complexity of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict ✨ Why social media oversimplifies the Middle East ✨ The rise of antisemitism and anti-Israel sentiment ✨ Palestinian Christians and life in the West Bank ✨ The importance of humility, empathy, and listening to real stories ✨ The Jewish roots of the Christian faith ✨ Why understanding Hebrew brings Scripture to life in a whole new way Anna Beth also shares how she began teaching Biblical Hebrew through Hebrew Haven and why so many Christians are hungry to better understand the Jewish context of the Bible. This conversation is not about choosing sides politically. It’s about seeking truth, understanding history, hearing human stories, and learning to hold difficult realities with wisdom, humility, and compassion — while ultimately connecting more deeply to the Bible, its context, and the heart of God. Because when we better understand the land, the people, the history, and the complexity surrounding Israel and the Middle East, Scripture comes alive in a much deeper and more meaningful way. At the center of all of this is Jesus — and the invitation to approach difficult conversations with humility, wisdom, compassion, and truth. If you’re Jewish, Christian, both, neither, or simply searching — you belong here. 💛 ⸻ 📚 Learn more about Anna Beth / Hebrew Haven: Hebrew Haven ⸻ 🎙️ Welcome to The Bridge Podcast Hosted by Joyce Dorian The Bridge exists to bring understanding, compassion, and healing to the disconnect between Jews and Christians through honest conversations, education, history, and personal stories.

    Christianity Was Never Meant to Be Blind Faith

    Christianity was never meant to be blind faith. In this episode of The Bridge, I sit down with Kaleb Glaze to talk about apologetics, asking hard questions, truth-seeking, and why so many young people today are hungry for something deeper. We discuss: • Why questioning can actually strengthen faith • Knowing not just what you believe — but why you believe it • The difference between blind faith and grounded faith • Apologetics and defending the Christian faith with wisdom and love • Reaching people across cultural and religious barriers • Why this generation is searching for truth like never before One of my favorite moments was when Kaleb said: “We’re drowning in information, but starving for truth.” Whether you’re deeply rooted in faith, struggling with questions, or simply searching for truth, I think this conversation will really encourage you. 🎧 Watch on YouTube or listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio, and Audible.
