The Pope, a Jewish rabbi, and a Muslim religious leader ascend the Temple Mount together. This sounds like a setup for a joke, doesn’t it? But if it’s true, inquiring minds want to know if representatives of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam will be able to pry open the sealed door of exclusivism so people from all nations can be free to pray on the Temple Mount.

After having a brush with the conflict and chaos that is connected with the holiest piece of real estate in the world, I have decided to take a step back to get a historical, linguistic perspective on what most people call the Temple Mount. I always find value in understanding the name of a place through the language of those closest to it. In Hebrew, the Temple Mount is called Har haBayit (“Mount of the House”) and in Arabic it is called Haram al-Sharif (“Noble Sanctuary”).
For those who claim that the present Temple Mount has no connection to its biblical foundation, language comes to the rescue. When the Roman Emperor Hadrian decided to “rebuild” Jerusalem in 135 C.E. he had Continue reading “The House on the Hill” »
After much prayer and discernment, my friend rabbi Yehudah Glick and I have made a formal request to Pope Francis and a call to religious leaders around the world to support the Freedom to Pray on the Temple Mount movement.
“We have formally asked Pope Francis to join us in urging Israeli government officials and Muslim religious leaders to support change of the status quo regarding prohibiting prayer on the Temple Mount.” -Rabbi Yehudah Glick, Chairman of the Temple Mount Heritage Foundation.
“We are not interested in promoting politics, but rather calling for a peaceful path for prayer on the Temple Mount for all nations” -Pastor Keith Johnson, founder of Biblical Foundations Academy, International.

I love the land, language and people of Israel, including those who are not Israeli but who love the God of Abraham. I was given a rare opportunity to express my love and concern in front of several hundred Israeli's who gathered to conference about what is happening on the Temple Mount. I was honored and humbled that they would listen to an American Pastor try his best to speak to them in their language. The video below is what they saw.

The time has come for me to address the toxicity of negativity amongst those who I call the "know it somes" who learn something new and now "know it all" for everybody! Okay, so I am trying to find a positive way to deal with my negative feelings; so what better way to address it than to jump right in to an audioblog with Nehemia Gordon who lives in China partly because he is running from negativity? Here is his perspective about this audioblog: Continue reading “The Power of Positivity…through the eyes of King David” »
The best way to find out if something is true is to put it through the test of time! Thus, the first of "Four Blood Moons" has passed and now the question must be asked: What has changed or what "imminent heavenly signs” from God need to be decoded?" Let's put all of these "signs and wonders" to the test! In fact, I want to invite our listeners to put our faith into action by witnessing these signs with our own two eyes in the land of Israel! Don't forget to click here and watch Episode 5 of Time Will Tell for free during this special weekend!
As preachers and teachers in the United States are selling the "Four Blood Moons" that are coming, there are folks in Israel that are not so keen on being thrown under the bus of biblical misinterpretation! Get ready to hear a perspective that probably won't make the bible astrologers of our day too happy. After you listen be sure to watch the full teaching video below that will help you deal with Blood Moon Mania!
As Nehemia Gordon and I launched our new moon mission to southern Israel, we decided to bring our audioblog listeners along with us! Sit back and enjoy the journey while we travel hundreds of miles, break through borders, climb mountains and discuss the significance of this important sighting of God's clock.
Let the adventure commence! Nehemia Gordon invited me to National Science Day at Rabin Square in Tel Aviv where the IDF was displaying their most advanced defense weaponry. One of the guest speakers at the event was Mooly Eden, President of Intel Israel. He inspired us with his perspective on technology and a whole lot more; so we asked him to give us a Time Will Tell interview. Wahla! Continue reading “What Box?” »
With the help of the Israeli military special escort (pictured to the left), I was able to visit a hard-to-reach location in Israel named Mount Ebal. In this arid outcrop resides the very altar described in Joshua 8:30-35 and in Deuteronomy 27:1–8. Here is an excerpt from the book of Joshua:
On the last day of our BFA International tour to Israel, I led a contingent from our group to the Temple Mount only to be driven off the Mount by the Muslim security force. Why did it happen? I ran into our previous audioblog guest Yehudah Glick and gave him a hug and invited him to speak to our group. Either it was a fantastic coincidence or it was orchestration from above! You decide.

After visiting Israel 8 times over a 12 year span I finally am ready to make a declaration. It's a complicated place to understand. I have always enjoyed breaking through the borders of race and religion to understand different perspectives. On this trip, I have truly met my match in trying to understand the Israeli/Arab conflict. I have to admit that my research for our upcoming projects forced me to address the issue as I was confronted with the complexity of the conflict. So here is my perspective.

Did you know that the Hebrew language is the only language in the world that was dead but has been resurrected into a national language? For years I have sensed that something special is happening again around the world regarding the increased interest in the language of the Hebrew Scriptures. Now I have seen it with my own eyes and want to share it with you!
Also I was absolutely amazed to listen to a lecture from a professor at Hebrew University about the progression of the ancient Paleo Hebrew script and a challenge for those who use ancient Hebrew 'word pictures" for interpretation. Very interesting! Can you read the Paleo Hebrew letters in the sculpture I am standing next to on the campus of Hebrew University? It say's Shalom upon Israel!
