God's Law is simple enough for poorly educated laborers and herders, yet rich enough for kings and philosophers. You can spend a lifetime studying Torah and still not understand it all, but you don't need the right genes or secret decoder ring. It's not that hard. #torah isn't in heaven, meaning it isn't too difficult to understand. Torah isn't beyond the sea, meaning you don't need to find the secret key to unlock God's meaning. It is in your mouth and heart so you can do it. God would never give his people instructions that they can't even comprehend.
Read it. Speak it. Believe it. Act on it.

Do you know that stereotypical nice, successful boy that Jewish mothers want their daughters to marry? Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz doesn’t fit that stereotype. In his years as a biker and culinary artist from New York, if any stereotype applied to him, it would be the rebellious young man searching for meaning in life. It’s a blessing that he found that meaning when he came home to Israel. Not only did his journey toward God acquire focus and intensity, he learned many lessons along the way that he is now sharing as a columnist with Israel365 News, and as an author of world-class fiction. Our four-part interview with Eliyahu begins with discussion of his latest novel, The Master of Return and the Eleventh Light, but then we go into some unexpected places as we talk about what God is doing at the intersection of the Jewish and Christian worlds.
In a sense, Eliyahu Berkowitz is one of those lost sheep of Israel who has found his way home. Barry Phillips and David Jones have a lot to say about wayward sheep in their midrash called, “Restoring Sheep.” Healing and restoration are themes in this message, and in the music of the Aleph Tav Band and Teshuva.

God loves to see His people prosper. If your heart is aligned with God's, whatever you set out to do will prosper. If your heart is not aligned with God's, whatever you set out to do will be pointless no matter how successful it seems to be in the moment. Understand that "prosper" means that the outcome also aligns with God's plan and that might not always look the way you expect.

Exodus 19;8, “And all the people answered together, “We will do everything that the LORD has spoken.” So Moses brought their words back to the LORD.” The people were united and in complete agreement, in one accord. The traditions and denominational doctrines do not unite believers, those things divide believers. The only thing that can unite us is the sacred word of our Creator.
