A Quick Tour of Our Tiny House: https://www.instagram.com/p/CBwVB0uJrIt/ Using Social Media For Business - Book Recommendation: "Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook by Gary Vaynerchuk: https://amzn.to/4hoZVB4 The Opt-Out Family: How to Give Your Kids What Technology Can't" Book: https://amzn.to/4aqrt6Z Holy Labor Book: https://amzn.to/4h9zWhs *The Quote We Referenced:* You, enlightened, self-sufficient, self-governed, endowed with gifts above your fellows, the world expects you to produce as well as to consume, to add to and not to subtract from its store of good, to build up and not tear down, to ennoble and not degrade. It commands you to take your place and to fight your fight in the name of honor and of chivalry, against the powers of organized evil and of commercialized vice, against the poverty, disease, and death which follow fast in the wake of sin and ignorance, against all the innumerable forces which are working to destroy the image of God in man, and unleash the passions of the beast. There comes to you from many quarters, from many voices, the call of your kind. It is the human cry of spirits in bondage, of souls in despair, of lives debased and doomed. It is the call of man to his brother ... such is your vocation; follow the voice that calls you in the name of God and of man. The time is short, the opportunity is great; therefore, crowd the hours with the best that is in you.” ― John Hibben ✨ *Explore Our Work:* 🎥 *THE WAY Documentary* The Way is the story of countless believers around the world who’ve traded Easter ham for Passover lamb and Sunday church for Saturday Sabbath - all in an effort to live like the Savior.

He and Scott brought their two assemblies together into one and help lead a team of pastors to fulfill the roles of a five-fold ministry: Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Teacher, Pastor/Shepherd. We talk with with Miller about his life and the lessons he endured to learn spiritual authority and submission, summarized in Proverbs 15:3b "before honor is humility." We also discuss the widespread repugnance toward tithing rife in the Torah community, as well as the general rejection of pastors and authority and the fallout that creates. Miller is also the biblical instructor and Hillman the president of ACTS Biblical Training Center, which teaches regenerative agriculture, traditional skills and biblical studies.

Meet me for a video chat on Patreon every month: https://www.patreon.com/TheLifeWithLuke Jason Towe was the protagonist in the documentary The Way, which we made in 2016. In that film he tells his life story of coming from a long line of Baptist ministers and the massive backlash he and his wife Amanda received when they stopped eating unclean meats and started worshiping on the seventh-day Sabbath. (In the intro I mistakenly say his dad was a minister - he was not. It was Jason's great grandfather and grandfather.) In this episode, Jason describes how he and I met and what's happened since then, including lessons he had to learn the hard way about sharing Torah with others and starting a fellowship. Since that time he's become the head pastor of Pursuing Truth Ministries. He'll talk to us about going to seminary after coming into Torah, fostering more than 30 children and encountering every weird, wild and awesome thing in the "Hebrew Roots" movement. And he has good advice for anyone new to Torah.
