Jesus said to the twelve that it was better that he leave them, because the Holy Spirit would come. (John 16:7) It's hard to imagine how it could be better without Jesus physically present, but that is because we underestimate the power of the Holy...
This coming Sunday (August 3rd 2025) is Tish B'av on the Jewish Calendar, the saddest day of the year for Jewish people. It was on this day in 586 BC that the Babylonians burnt the city of Jerusalem to the ground and it was utterly...
