Still Chosen: Did God Make an Unconditional Covenant With Abraham?
The question of Israel’s chosenness isn’t abstract - it’s foundational. If God’s covenant with Abraham is conditional, then Israel’s future and even our own assurance in Christ are uncertain. But if it’s unconditional, then God’s faithfulness to Abraham secures hope for us all. In this episode, Ron and Matt Davis trace the Abrahamic covenant from Genesis 12, 15, and 17. They unpack the ancient covenant-cutting ceremony, the unconditional nature of God’s promise, and how the Mosaic covenant fits alongside it. They also show how the New Testament reaffirms - not erases - God...

Still Chosen: Why Are So Many Christians Confused About Israel Right Now?
For many Christians, the ground feels like it’s shifting under their feet. You grew up hearing “pray for the peace of Jerusalem,” then watched trusted voices say, “the church is the new Israel.” Add the noise of social feeds and the headlines of 2025, and it’s easy to wonder who to trust. In this new season, our theme is Still Chosen: Dispelling the Israel Delusion. Matt and Ron open the Scriptures and the conversation. They name three forces driving confusion today: cultural pressure, theological drift (especially replacement theology’s fresh packaging), and pastoral silence that leaves a vacuum fille...

The Massacre In Syria No One's Talking About (featuring Mansor Ashkar)
While global attention remains locked on Gaza, another atrocity is unfolding across the border in Syria - and almost no one is talking about it. In this episode of The Jewish Road Podcast, Matt and Ron Davis speak with Mansor Ashkar, a prominent Israeli Druze leader, to expose the silent ethnic cleansing of the Druze people by radical Sunni factions.

Our faith calls us to be active, engaged, and responsible in our world - not passive spectators.

Who Is This Child, Born Of A Virgin?
Jesus did NOT begin His existence with His birth out of the womb of Mary. He is the eternal Son of God. He “became” flesh in the womb of Mary through the supernatural work of the Ruach Hakodesh (Holy Spirit). It was a miracle from the beginning to end! We want the birth of Jesus to be relevant to our Jewish people as the Messiah intended it to be. We want to highlight the incarnation through Jewish eyes and provide an understanding of what this word, incarnation, could mean if you are a Jew r...

What Is Unique About The Messiah’s Birth?
THE MESSIAH WAS TO BE BORN OF A VIRGIN. When we approach the subject of the virgin birth, whether Jew or Gentile, we tend to think about the story we are most familiar with: Mary and Joseph, the baby in the manger, angels and shepherds. Though this miracle is a complicated thing to explain, we are dancing in familiar space in the Christian world. For us Jews, exploring this topic means we have wandered into foreign territory that’s “not for us.” At least that’s what our mothers told us. The subject we’re talking abo...

When Will The Messiah Be Born?
Question number two in our series is, "When will the Messiah be born?" Knowing WHEN the Messiah (Jesus) would come is important to know whether He has actually already come, is still yet to come, or maybe even both. THE MESSIAH MUST COME WHILE THE SECOND TEMPLE WAS STILL STANDING. “Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me. And the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight, behold, he is coming, says the Lord of hosts.” (Malachi 3:1)

Where Will The Messiah Be Born?
It's December, and the Jewish people are once again bombarded with confusing messages about Christmas. Instead of trying to make sense of it all, we usually go to the movies and order in Chinese food. The problem is that many of these messages are not only inaccurate but they also present a false picture of the incarnation and who Jesus really is. On one hand, when approaching Christmas, the Jewish people can see it as embracing a "cultural Christmas" with the trees, tinsel, and Santa Claus. On the other hand, the other option the Jewish people see is to embrace the...

Feast of Booths - Act Two
The gospel of John talks about a feast called "the Feast of Booths." This is a festival to celebrate their harvest and remember how God provided and protected them in the desert. His Presence was also "with" the people, and we track the Presence of God throughout the Bible. The Feast of Booths (or Sukkot in Hebrew) is also a time where the Jewish people give thanks for all that God has given them.

Jewish tradition teaches that to remember our time in the desert, we should build a sukkah (booth) at home and decorate it with palm branches and leafy boughs of trees, and hang fruit from the makeshift ceiling, both of which are meant to remind us of Israel's harvest season.

Yom Kippur is a day of atonement and forgiveness. It is the last day of the Days of Awe, and it's time to take stock in our lives. On this Day of Atonement, we are supposed to live with a spirit of repentance and be thankful for forgiveness. As Jewish followers of the Messiah, our atonement was secured as Jesus was crucified on that cursed tree. There is nothing more we can do to earn ourselves forgiveness or atonement, it has already been provided for us. What is left is for us to receive it. ...
