Welcome!

We want to draw your attention to the new Torah Reflection, written by Pastor Joe Gonzalez. This week is the fifty-second reading of the Torah Portion (Parasha) called, Vayelech which translates, when he went.

The name is derived from the first word of the first verse of the portion: "So Moses went (vayelech) and spoke these words to all Israel." Deuteronomy 31:1

We hope it blesses you as we prepare for Yom Kippur.

Just a quick note to draw your attention to all the updates on the Fall Calendar at Olive Tree Community Spokane. We have two upcoming live services, with the details listed just below.

“My son, pay attention to my words - incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart. For they are life to those who find them and health to their whole body.”

Proverbs 4:20-22 

Estimates say 1/5 of all pregnancies in Israel end in abortion. Since 1948, more babies have been aborted in Israel than the number of children that died in the Holocaust. Yet despite the nation’s deeply rooted respect for life, Israel is one of the only countries in the world where it is legal to abort a baby up until birth.

You can help bring hope to women in crisis pregnancies by providing counseling, education, and practical provision. In this way, you can partner in helping the men and women of Israel choose LIFE. 

  Raised in Sudan, in one the most radical sects of Islam, Yassir was raised to hate Christians and especially Jews.   But God transformed his life from hate to love.  You won't believe the ending! Click the link below to watch.

Messianic Joy Connections is an exciting program on our radio ministry, Messianic Joy! We are connecting with believers in the Messiah, Yeshua, interviewing those who are leaders in Messianic ministries, with authors, teachers, musicians, people involved in the Messianic movement, those who embrace the whole Word of G-d and wish to share G-d's message of love, grace, and mercy. You can also find older episodes in their full video format on our YouTube channel. (Click the blue box at the bottom of this message.)

We finished our Eighth interview and we know you'll love hearing from our guest, Joshua Waller from the Israel Guys, where you can find authentic  news stories from Israel:  "Since mainstream media only spews lies and negativity regarding Israel, we realized that pro-Israel Christians need an accurate, faith-based source when it comes to understanding the land and people that call this land home. Through podcasts, videos and articles, we bring you the land, people and stories straight from Israel’s front lines each and every week." Be sure to catch this interview, full of interesting, first-hand information about Israel!

You can find the interviews on Saturday evenings at 6 pm (PST) on Messianic Joy. Go to live365.com or download the "live365" app and then search for "Messianic Joy."  After each new interview has played on the radio station, it will also be uploaded in video format to our YouTube channel, Olive Tree Community Spokane.

We would love to hear what you think of the show and hear who you would like to be interviewed on Messianic Joy Connections. Feel free to use the comment feature on the bottom right of this page to connect with us. Shalom!
