I can’t believe we are at the end of the first quarter of 2022! At the time of this writing, Ukraine is under attack. There are approximately 1.4 million women who have fled their country. Families are separated, and their futures are unknown. Our world is still maneuvering a world filled with an unpredictable virus,…
“Wait. Why should I care about Passover? I’m a Christian. Isn’t that a Jewish thing?” I frequently hear this response when I speak about “Passover for Christians.” Yes, Passover is a “Jewish thing,” but it is also a “Christian thing!” The two are closely related.
