Stories of the Messiah with Rabbi Schneider

Stories of the Messiah with Rabbi Schneider

Embark on this two-part transformative journey with Rabbi Schneider as he presents the story of Jesus Christ. Step into a world where each episode offers a unique blend of historical accounts and spiritual revelations, guiding listeners to rediscover the timeless tales of faith and their profound connection to the Messiah. Part 1: Biblical Legends and their Messiah Connection (Starting November 1st) Experience the intricate tapestries of iconic Bible figures - from Noah's steadfastness amidst a world in chaos, Moses' leadership against the mighty Pharaoh, Samson's unparalleled strength, to David's legendary valor against Goliath. As we dive deeply into their enthralling narratives, we find more than just stories of faith and miracles. We discover a recurrent theme, a spiritual undertone that connects each tale to the grandeur of the Gospel. These heroes, with their individual triumphs and tribulations, consistently point us towards a larger narrative. They're not just standalone legends; they're threads in a divine tapestry, weaving a story that foreshadows Jesus, the ultimate hero, the promised Messiah who brings light to the darkest corners of history. Part 2: Nativity - *A Christmas Series* The Birth of Hope and Redemption (Starting November 27th) Transition from the tales of old to the most pivotal moment in biblical history with "Nativity: Hope is Born." This isn't just another retelling of the Christmas story. It's a rich, immersive journey that takes listeners through ancient prophecies echoing with hope, geopolitical upheavals shaking nations, and the passionate anticipation of a people yearning for their promised Savior. This story, deeply rooted in love, devotion, and divine promise, serves as a testimony to God's eternal plan for humanity. As we revisit that silent night in Bethlehem, we're not merely recounting events but reigniting the profound wonder and divine love encapsulated in the birth of Christ. Join Rabbi Schneider as he paints this celestial story with fervor, highlighting the profound implications of that first Noel for all of mankind.
