In this episode of Fulfilled, Rebecca is joined by Aaron Dranoff, host of the Torah Guide Podcast.
Aaron shares his journey from growing up culturally Jewish to becoming convinced—through historical evidence and Scripture—that Jesus truly is the Messiah. Together, Rebecca and Aaron explore why belief in Jesus is often such a difficult and emotional step for Jewish people, including the lasting impact of antisemitism and painful chapters of history.
They also unpack one of the most common questions Jewish believers wrestle with:
Can you follow Jesus and still honor your Jewish heritage?
This episode is especially meaningful for anyone who wants to better understand the Jewish roots of Christianity—and for those who care about sharing Jesus with Jewish friends in a way marked by humility, truth, and genuine love.
