Why do Christians claim to follow a Jewish Rabbi—Yeshua (Jesus)—yet reject the very faith He practiced? In this episode, we explore the tension between devotion and distortion: was early Christianity ever meant to separate from its Jewish roots? We unpack the term “Judaizer,” often used negatively in church history, and ask whether true devotion to the Jewish Messiah means returning to the covenant, commandments, and context of Israel’s faith.


Join us as we trace the first-century struggle between Torah-observant followers of Yeshua and the emerging Gentile church, revealing how culture, politics, and theology reshaped the message of the Kingdom. This conversation invites both Jewish and Christian listeners to rediscover what it means to truly follow the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob through His promised Messiah.
