Understanding Your Jewish Neighbour: Rosh Hashanah

Jewish communities worldwide have faced a surge of antisemitism, leaving many fearful, shaken by crisis, and searching earnestly for hope. Others, scarred by history, have erected barriers to the gospel and often associate Christendom with the very evils of antisemitic hatred. As a Jewish believer in Jesus, my heart grieves deeply.
As we enter into the new Jewish Year of 5786, I long for my people to discover the same hope, salvation, and transformation I have found in Yeshua (Jesus). I long to see bridges built between the church and the Jewish people. One way is by inviting Christians to engage with the biblical festivals that shape Jewish life and identity, offer biblical insight and practical ways to celebrate them with understanding, while showing love to Jewish neighbours.

• Rosh Hashanah: An Invitation to Repentance and Renewal
• The significance of the Trumpet to our Lives
  "Rosh Hashanah finds its fullest meaning in the Messiah."
• Celebrating the Holiday
  ‘For Christians, engaging with this feast of the Lord offers a chance to participate in the rhythms of repentance and renewal that point us all to the coming kingdom.’
