In this episode, we step into the sacred rhythms of Scripture to uncover the rich meaning behind Pentecost, or Shavuot, also known as the Feast of Weeks. Far more than a date on the calendar or a historical church event, Pentecost is a divine appointment — one of God’s moedim, sacred times designed not only to remember but to participate in His unfolding story.
Why were Jews from every corner of the known world in Jerusalem in Acts 2? Why did the Spirit fall then, and what did it all mean?
We trace the roots of Pentecost from Deuteronomy 16, exploring how the early believers didn’t just attend a feast — they became part of God’s story. These feasts weren’t man-made traditions; they were God-ordained rehearsals of redemption, relationship, and the restoration of all things.
We talk about how harvests, and holy days all pointed to something greater — and how we can recover sacred rhythms in our modern, distracted lives.
