What if salvation was never meant to be the finish line?

In this episode, we begin a deep dive into one of the most foundational (and most misunderstood) themes in all of Scripture: covenant.

From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible is not simply the story of individuals being "saved." It is the story of a covenant-keeping Elohim (God) forming a covenant people. Salvation is the invitation — covenant is the life that follows.

In this episode, we lay the groundwork for a 9-part series exploring:
• What covenant actually means in Scripture and the different covenants in Scripture
• How the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants are connected yet distinct
• What makes the “New Covenant” both new and renewed
• Why priesthood, mediation, and inheritance matter
• How misunderstanding covenant leads to misunderstanding Paul

If we don’t understand covenant, we won’t fully understand grace, obedience, priesthood, or what our Messiah accomplished.

Salvation opens the door. Covenant teaches you how to live in the house.

This is a deep Bible study series, and we’re building foundations — not just preaching conclusions.

I encourage you to watch these episodes in order. Take your time. Let Scripture interpret Scripture.

Yah bless!

What does it truly mean to “walk in torah?"

For many believers, the word carries stigma—law, legalism, or something meant only for Jewish people—but Scripture tells a different story. "Torah" is the Father's loving instructions, and most believers are already walking in it without realizing it. In this episode, we explore how love (not legalism) is the foundation of obedience, how Torah defines what love looks like in action, and why faith doesn’t abolish obedience—it establishes it.

We also tackle the deeper questions: Why do people say, "we're not under the law," yet they still walk in it in some aspects of their life? If Messiah fulfilled the Torah, why don’t we practice everything the same way today? We break down commonly misunderstood law categories, explain the shift from the Levitical priesthood to the Melchizedek order (as a brief introduction), and show how fulfillment does not mean abolition. Through the prophets, Book of Hebrews, and Messiah’s own words, let's talk about how the Father's Torah remains holy, spiritual, and alive, and it is now written on the hearts of those led by the Spirit, guiding us in faith, love, and sanctification.

In this episode, we will discuss the meaning, history, and controversy surrounding the use of Hebrew names for the Father and Son, including the heart behind why I choose to use the names “Yahuah” for the Father and “Yahusha” for the Son. We will explore how ancient Hebrew was written without vowels, how historical events like the Babylonian exile and later scribal traditions influenced pronunciation and translation, and how titles like “Lord” and “God” came to replace the personal Name in many Bible translations, which has deeply influenced our understanding today.

We will also examine historical evidence from the Dead Sea Scrolls and early Greek manuscript fragments, which show that the Father’s Name was preserved long after the biblical period. We will discuss the difference between misusing the Name versus using it, the cultural and prophetic significance of names in Hebrew thought, and why heart posture matters more than perfect pronunciation.

Lastly, we will address the common “cult” accusations associated with using Hebrew names, clarifying what actually defines a cult and encouraging listeners to approach the topic with humility and love. The episode truly emphasizes the “weightier matter”: honoring the Father not just with our words, but how we live.

Welcome to the first episode of Season 5 on The Promise Perspective Podcast!

This episode marks a shift in how we approach the gospel—and how we read the Scriptures as a whole.

Rather than beginning with conclusions, this conversation/episode/podcast season invites you to slow down and reconsider the foundations: how the Hebrew Scriptures, the words of the prophets, and the testimony of Messiah all belong to one unified story moving toward fulfillment.

In this episode, we will discuss:

• What Scripture actually means when it says “according to the Scriptures”
• Why Messiah said Moses wrote about Him
• How the priesthood, sacrifices, and Torah functioned as shadows
• What it truly means for Messiah to fulfill rather than abolish
• And why misunderstanding the word “fulfillment” has created confusion on both extremes

This season is not about reviving old systems OR dismissing them—it’s about clarity. It’s about learning how to honor what was given without returning to what has already reached its intended purpose.

If you’ve ever felt tension between obedience and grace…If you’ve wondered why some commandments are no longer practiced physically…If you’ve sensed that the gospel is richer and more layered than what you’ve heard or been taught…

Episode 1 is your invitation to join me in a brand new season, in which we will spend time reasoning through the Scriptures the way the apostles did—allowing Messiah to be revealed, not assumed.

The shadows were real. The substance is greater. And we are being called to live in that reality.

HalleluYAH!!

This episode/video is the foundation for everything moving forward on The Promise Perspective Podcast.

Season 5 is titled “A Royal Priesthood: From Shadows to Reality,” and this introduction is meant to set the lens through which all future episodes—and even my social media posts—are meant to be understood.

If you’ve ever come across something I’ve shared and wondered “Where is she going with this?” or “What’s the purpose here?”—this episode answers that.

In this introduction as well as Season 5 - Episode 1, I will share:

• Why the gospel is bigger than we’re often taught
• Why the New Testament cannot be understood without the Hebrew Scriptures
• What it truly means for Messiah to fulfill the Law and the Prophets
• How shadows like the priesthood, sacrifices, tabernacle and appointed times point to Yahusha
• And the questions that need to be asked so that we as a body, can understand what it means for us today to live as a royal priesthood in the fullness OF that revelation

This season on my podcast isn’t about returning to rituals and sacrifices—it’s about understanding the gospel. It’s about seeing Messiah revealed from Genesis to Revelation and learning how to walk in the reality of what the “shadows” in Scripture were always pointing toward.

If you’re new here, welcome to my page! This is your starting point.

If you’ve been walking with me for a while, this is the foundation we’ll be building on moving forward.

I pray that this podcast season is a blessing to you. Here’s to learning, walking and growing together.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…”
Matthew 28:19

In this episode, we will explore some foundational but deeply misunderstood questions:

What is the Hebrew definition of “obey?”

What does it actually mean to “keep” or “break” the commandments?

How did the original Hebrew audience understand obedience, law, covenant, and faith—long before Western theology reshaped those ideas?

This episode will challenge modern Christian assumptions by calling us to deconstruct inherited paradigms and return to a Hebraic understanding of Scripture, language, and covenant. The goal is not to burden Believers with rules, but to restore clarity about the heart of the Father and the true nature of the gospel that we are called to “carry to the ends of the earth.”

The ultimate goal of this episode is to reframe the biblical definition of obedience in a way that reveals the HEART of the Father. You might be surprised when you learn that the biblical definition of obedience isn’t “do” – it’s “listen.”

This episode will restore the depth of crucial Hebrew concepts:

• Shema (often translated “obey”) means to hear, listen, internalize, and respond appropriately.
• Shamar (often translated as “keep”) means to guard, protect, and watch over.
• Parar (often translated as “break”) means to trample, disregard, or nullify

“Keeping” the commandments is not about flawless performance, but about guarding the Father’s word with a faithful, responsive heart. Likewise, “breaking” the commandments is not about imperfection, but about contempt—casting them behind one’s back and disregarding them.

The gospel isn’t about “getting saved.” It’s about learning how to hear the Father, walk in covenant and guard what He loves. Salvation is the door that begins the lifelong journey of learning how to be a covenant people—a “treasured possession” who listens to the Father’s voice with a desire to bring Him the glory and honor He is due.

This restores peace, removes fear-driven theology of making things a “salvation issue,” and reframes the Believer’s walk as a journey of learning and intimacy, not simply a list of “do’s and don’ts.” I pray that if you listen to this episode, your heart is filled with joy and excitement as an invitation gets poured into your heart--an invitation that you may have never heard before.

The invitation is simple: “SHEMA.” That’s it. To simply “listen.”

I pray that this episode helps someone who may be wrestling with obedience, faith, or the purpose of the Father’s commandments. I pray that it encourages and equips you to understand that obedience isn’t just about “doing,” it’s about listening first.

So take this as an invitation to slow down. Read the Bible without commentary. Stop listening to men to teach you the Father’s heart and go straight to the Source.

HOW DID A LATIN WORD — NOT FOUND IN ANY BIBLICAL MANUSCRIPT — BECOME ONE OF THE MOST DEFINING IDENTITY LABELS OF THE FAITH TODAY?

IN THIS EPISODE, WE WILL TRACE THE HISTORY OF THE TERM “GENTILE” AND UNCOVER HOW ITS INTRODUCTION INTO THE SCRIPTURAL TEXT CHANGED THE WAY THE WORLD HAS INTERPRETED SCRIPTURE AND DIVIDED HUMANITY.

YOU’LL LEARN HOW:

• ·THE WORD “GENTILE” IS NOT FOUND IN ANY HEBREW, GREEK, OR ARAMAIC MANUSCRIPTS
• NO INDIVIDUAL IN SCRIPTURE WAS EVER CALLED “A GENTILE” IN THE ORIGINAL TEXTS — THE SINGULAR FORM WAS INCORRECTLY INSERTED IN SEVERAL KJV VERSES
• HOW THE TERM ENTERED BIBLE TRANSLATIONS THROUGH THE LATIN VULGATE WHEN BISHOP DAMASUS COMMISSIONED JEROME’S TRANSLATION IN THE LATE 4TH CENTURY CE
• THE LATIN GENTILIS EVENTUALLY REPLACED NEUTRAL BIBLICAL WORDS LIKE “NATION” AND “PEOPLE” (HEBREW: GOY / GOYIM) AND TOOK ON A JUDGMENT-LADEN MEANING THAT SCRIPTURE NEVER INTENDED
• HOW THE GREEK WORD ETHNOS (USED OF ISRAEL ITSELF MANY TIMES) WAS MISTRANSLATED AS “GENTILES” IN LATER ENGLISH BIBLES
• EXAMPLES WHERE ‘GOY’ & ‘ETHNOS’ CLEARLY REFERS TO THE NATION OF ISRAEL — PROVING IT CANNOT MEAN “NON-ISRAELITES”

STEP BY STEP, VERSE BY VERSE, INTHIS EPISODE YOU’LL SEE HOW A TRANSLATION CHOICE — NOT SCRIPTURE — CREATED THE FALSE IDEA OF A PERMANENT OUTSIDER CLASS IN THE FAMILY OF YAHUAH.

WHEN YOU REALIZE THAT THERE WAS NEVER A WORD IN SCRIPTURE THAT WAS DESIGNATED TO MEAN“NON-ISRAELITE,” EVERYTHING CHANGES IN THE WAY YOU UNDERSTAND OUR MESSIAH ANDTHE FATHER’S PLAN OF REDEMPTION.

BY RECOVERING THE TRUE HISTORY AND LANGUAGE BEHIND THIS WORD, WE DISCOVER THAT YAHUAH’S FAMILY WAS ALWAYS MEANT TO INCLUDE PEOPLE FROM ALL NATIONS GRAFTED INTO HIS PROMISES — WITHOUT LABELS THAT DIVIDE.

In this episode, we continue unpacking the difficult but necessary history surrounding the transatlantic slave trade, international slavery systems, and how these events connect to the curses described in Deuteronomy 28. When we honestly study geography, Scripture, and historical patterns of oppression, we begin to see how the experiences of those the world calls “Black” in America overwhelmingly align with the very markers Scripture gives to identify the natural branches of Israel. This isn’t about skin color itself, but about the shared, generational experiences of captivity, displacement, and oppression that mirror the biblical curses in their entirety.

We also explore Joel 3, where Yahuah condemns the nations for selling His people, scattering them far from their homeland, and dividing His land. This passage strikingly parallels the many slave trades carried out throughout world history—not just the transatlantic system, but numerous others in which powerful nations trafficked and exploited people for profit. Christianity, as practiced by many European and American institutions, played a direct role in this oppression by white-washing Scripture, presenting a European Messiah, and using theology to justify enslavement.

This distortion produced deep psychological and spiritual trauma. Enslaved Hebrews were taught a version of Christianity crafted by their oppressors—while simultaneously being beaten, raped, and dehumanized by the same people who demanded they worship a “white savior” and call their enslavers “master.” The long-term impact of this manufactured religious identity has passed down through generations, especially through forbidden images, statues, and portrayals that Scripture itself warns against.

We take a deeper look at how early American Christianity was built on pro-slavery theology, from the “slave Bible” that removed empowering passages to sermons commanding enslaved people to obey their earthly masters. We also address the misuse of the “curse of Ham,” and the ways religious institutions have avoided reckoning with their role in centuries of exploitation.

We also touch on the Gullah Geechee people—descendants of enslaved Africans who were brought to the coastal regions of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. Their unique preservation of language and culture provides powerful evidence of a people who maintained distinct Hebrew-like traditions despite centuries of oppression. The Gullah Geechee’s isolation, resilience, and continuity of ancestral customs mirror the scattered yet preserved identity described in Scripture. Their history offers another compelling layer in understanding who the descendants of the natural branches truly are, and how Yahuah preserved markers of identity even in the midst of captivity.

By revisiting this history honestly, we can better understand the identity of Yahuah’s people, the fulfillment of prophecy, and the ongoing impact of slavery on the descendants of those scattered to the four corners of the earth.
