Introduction to the Biblical Feast
#3
Today at 9:35 AM

Kim and Jeff invite you into the rhythm of God’s calendar—the appointed times, or moedim. These aren’t just ancient traditions; they’re divine invitations to meet with God, to rehearse His redemptive plan, and to align our lives with heaven’s timing.
