Congregation of the Living Word (Kehilat Devar HaChaim) is a Messianic Jewish fellowship dedicated to honoring God and His Messiah Yeshua by studying the Word, living His Torah, and following His Spirit. We are disciples of Yeshua of Nazareth, the promised Messiah, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. We look forward to the return of the Messiah and the resurrection of the dead. We honor all of God’s holy written word…the Torah, the Prophets, and the writings, as well as the Gospels and the Apostolic letters. If you love Israel and want to study the teachings of the Messiah from a Hebrew context...if you can’t attend a Messianic Synagogue on Shabbat, Passover, or another major feast...if you want to dig deeper into Purim, Chanukah, Tisha B’Av, or one of our other traditional festivals, look for our free sermons in the Podcast app or in the iTunes store. Many sermons are available in English and Spanish. To listen to episodes that are older than 4 months, visit https://messianiclivingword.podbean.com
