Q: What do a music festival and a discipleship program, each sponsored by Jewish Voice, have in common? A: They will both be taking place around the same time in December, continents apart.

Joseph had lost his sight to mature cataracts. In fact, it’d been years since he’d been stripped of his vision. And now he lived in darkness. Joseph could rarely leave home.

Joseph is just one example of the kind of despair we encounter in our Medical Outreaches throughout Ethiopia and Zimbabwe. So many Jewish people and their neighbors in these areas have no other help or hope to restore the...

“It is good to give thanks to the Lord and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High” (Psalm 92:1 NKJV). “I really should be thankful.” How many times have you heard someone say that – or said it yourself? Why do we sometimes struggle to be thankful? Why is it so hard? And why is it so often reduced to a “should”? Maybe, somewhere underneath our conscious level of thinking, we believe that being thankful for what we have flies in the face of what we still want. And we do still wa...

This week, Jewish Voice is hosting a very special conference for Messianic Jewish leaders. Many are coming from across the United States while others are from such diverse locations as Israel, Russia, Australia and the Netherlands. We have the opportunity to intercede for these global Messianic leaders, both this week and beyond. As we do, the impact of our prayers will extend to their families, neighbors and communities, including Jewish people who don’t yet know Yeshua as their Messiah. Wil...

Israel faces Hamas threat while government still remains in question Last weekend, Hamas operatives unleashed a barrage of missile fire along Israel’s southern border. A total of 10 rockets were fired overnight on Friday, setting off the alarms along Israel’s border towns. Eight of the 10 rockets were intercepted by Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system. Some property damage and minor injuries were reported. But the mental and emotional devastation simply can’t be calculated. The on...

Jeremiah 17:9 says, “the heart is deceitful above all things.” The New King James goes on to say it is “desperately wicked” while the Tree of Life Version calls it “incurable.” That’s a startling verse, and it’s tough to see that it includes no caveats indicating it’s only referring to “the really bad people.” The Bible boldly claims that we all have wickedness in our hearts, and therefore, we’re all vulnerable to getting carried away by it. Mob Mentality Eighty-one years ago, Michael Bruc...

“See, I will gather [the Jewish people] out of all the countries, where I have driven them in My anger, My fury, and great wrath, and I will bring them back to [Jerusalem] and cause them to dwell securely.

I will give them one heart and one way, so they may fear Me forever; for their good and for their children after them… Yes, I will delight in doing good for them, and with all My heart and all My soul I will in truth plant them in this ...
