For centuries, Paul has been misunderstood as a man who rejected Judaism to start a new religion. But was that really his message? In this episode, we explore Paul’s true identity as a faithful Jew who followed Yeshua (Jesus) not in spite of his Jewish faith, but because of it.

Join us as we uncover the historical, cultural, and scriptural context that reveals how Paul’s writings uphold the Torah’s purpose and the covenant promises of Israel. This conversation invites both Jews and Christians to reconsider what it truly means to follow the Jewish Messiah—and how faith in Him unites, rather than divides.

If you’ve ever wondered why Christians claim a Jewish Messiah but often seem disconnected from Judaism, this episode bridges that gap.
