Ahavat Yeshua Jerusalem “V” is a tough cookie. She is a fighter in Israel’s combat border police and carries an automatic rifle with her 24/7 – even during occasional visits to Ahavat Yeshua with her sister. She has been through a rough year, starting with bombs being placed on her base near Ramallah. Thankfully only one went off, and no one was injured. Then fighting between Jewish settlers and Palestinians left dead bodies, and she had to witness the aftermath. This was tra

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel Throughout Scripture, God calls people to get up and go. In Genesis 12:1, the Lord tells Abraham, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.” Abraham was called to leave what was familiar and go to a land God would show him. Moses was sent back to Egypt. The prophets were called to rise, speak, and obey. The disciples were told to go into all the world, becoming witnesses “in Jerusalem, and in a

Harvest of Asher Akko, Israel There are moments when the fragility of life is no longer a distant thought but becomes a reality that touches us deeply. One phone call, one piece of news, and someone who was part of our lives is suddenly no longer here. The world continues around us while something inside cannot. “Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.” (Psalm 144:4) The Scriptures do not hide from the fragility of life, nor soften the reality of loss. Th

Shavei Tzyon | Return to Zion Congregation Haifa, Israel Thank you for standing alongside us! Personal Update In ministry circles, the word “burnout” is all too familiar. It manifests in fatigue, a complete lack of energy, brain fog, and irritability. That was pretty much where I found myself by the end of July. The reasons were many: an intense schedule with constant events, numerous meetings with congregational members (some of which were quite challenging), ongoing rumors

Tents of Mercy Congregation Kiryat Yam, Israel My earthly father used to tell me, “You’ll understand this one day, but there are so many things I want to teach you and show you.” Likewise, our heavenly Father wants to communicate with us. One of the ways He speaks is through other people. After I finished the army, I went through a confusing season. Everything seemed to point toward moving to Jerusalem. Just as I thought I had made my decision, I heard Peter Tsukahira preach

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel © Gozo, Malta | GLudvig Hedenborg Around the world today we see storms, earthquakes, and floods. We also see storms in people’s lives, ministries, and congregations. How do we respond and walk with the Lord in the midst of the storm? In Jonah’s case, the tempest came because he sinned. He was running away from God. Sometimes you can’t rebuke the storm or bind it, because you’re going in the wrong direction. Yeshua encountered a different kind

What happened aboard FlyDubai flight FZ1073 could have ended in unimaginable tragedy. Instead, through extraordinary courage and intervention, the passengers made it safely home. Asher reflects on the dramatic events aboard FlyDubai Flight FZ1073 and the remarkable courage and intervention that prevented what could have been a terrible tragedy. There is also a larger strategic prayer point we don’t want to miss. This incident comes at a significant moment as Israel’s relation

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel Whenever I read Acts 3, my attention usually goes immediately to Peter’s words about the “restoration of all things” (Acts 3:21). It is such a significant passage, especially when thinking about Israel, the return of Yeshua, and the fulfillment of God’s promises. But reading the chapter again recently, something else caught my attention that I had never really noticed before. Earlier in his message, Peter is speaking to the people gathered in J

- A Story of Transformation Tiferet Yeshua Congregation Tel Aviv © Tel Aviv Pride Parade - by Ted Eytam We are in Tel Aviv – a city with a large and influential LGBTQ community. Testimonies of people from the LGBTQ community coming to faith in Yeshua and deciding to leave the homosexual lifestyle are rare. This last year, however, God showed us that nothing is impossible with Him and that He patiently works through people’s fears when they honestly desire to know Him. I firs

Harvest of Asher Akko, Israel “For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder ... and His name shall be called ... Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and of peace there shall be no end...” (Isaiah 9:6–7) When we read this passage, it is easy to focus on the title “Prince of Peace,” but peace does not stand on its own; it flows from the reign of the Prince

Tents of Mercy Congregation Kiryat Yam, Israel This year marked 20 years since the first Tents of Mercy summer camp experience, one that was forced upon us, to distance our kids from the missiles from Lebanon way back in the summer of 2006. We took the kids southward, to a clearing in the middle of an olive grove in central Israel, not far from Beit Shemesh. There, we had no A/C options. Everyone slept in tents. And the cooking was outdoor, primitive style over an open fire.

Shavei Tzyon | Return to Zion Congregation Haifa, Israel Greetings to you with love! Thank you for your prayers and support for our ministry. Your faithfulness plays a vital role in enabling us to serve the Lord, especially through our humanitarian projects. We pray that the Lord will abundantly bless you and your loved ones! Summer is a blessing — a time when schoolchildren head off for a well-deserved break, and many Israeli families travel in all directions to rest and rec

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel The Bible has a lot to say about the Resurrection from the dead – both Yeshua’s and ours. To bring the dead to life in full glory is something the whole creation is yearning for (Romans 8:18-23). We will be raised in a resurrection body that is as different from this one as the fully mature wheat plant is so much more “glorious” than a simple grain of wheat. This new, heavenly body is imperishable, glorious, powerful, and spiritual. Yeshua hims

Your partnership with Tikkun Global is helping make it possible for us to invest intentionally in young, emerging leaders. Because of the faithful support of our partners, both through prayer and financially, we are excited to launch the Tikkun Global Ambassadors Program this November in Jerusalem. This initiative will provide opportunities for teaching, discipleship, relationship-building, and firsthand experiences designed to equip leaders to carry the message of restorat

At Tikkun Global, we believe partnership is about more than joining together in prayer and worship. It is also about joining together to strengthen the Body of Messiah and investing in what God is doing around the world in practical, tangible ways. One of the ministries we have been privileged to partner with is Ekballo in Nāʻālehu, Hawaii. Recently, you may have heard that name in the news, “Na’alehu” as the village on the Big Island of Hawaii which was ground-zero for Hur

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel Reading 2 Samuel 15 recently, I was struck again by the picture of David leaving Jerusalem during Absalom’s rebellion. Here is the anointed king of Israel, rejected by his own people, crossing the Kidron Valley and going up the Mount of Olives, weeping, barefoot, and with his head covered (2 Samuel 15:23, 30). It is a powerful picture of rejection and humiliation, but what stood out to me most was David’s response. When the priests brought the

Praise, Prayer, and Prophecy have been part of Tikkun’s spiritual DNA for more than 40 years. From the earliest days of the movement, our leaders have sought to create an atmosphere where the Holy Spirit is welcome, where we listen for His leading and respond together in worship, prayer, and prophetic proclamation. Today, Tikkun Global continues to carry this DNA from Jerusalem. Praise, Prayer, and Prophecy, or “PPP,” is not simply a ministry program or part of our history. I

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel Cottage cheese is a staple in the Israeli home. It is considered the most popular food in Israel, even more than falafel or hummus. It is different from the grainy, liquidy mixture I remember from my childhood. It is thick and creamy, rich and satisfying. We often eat cottage cheese for breakfast or lunch, with toast or salad, and use it in place of feta in lasagna. It is such a staple that a decade ago, when a group of housewives started a pro

Shavei Tzyon | Return to Zion Congregation Haifa, Israel I want to begin this update with the words from Matthew 5:13-14: “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.” We have read these verses many times, yet here is an insight I would like to share. Scientifically,

Ahavat Yeshua Jerusalem There can be no homicide more awful than the murder of Yeshua. Even two thousand years later, we cannot fully comprehend the heart-wrenching injustice, the mind-blowing shock, and the devastating loss. To grasp this better, let’s see how this murder wasn’t just the worst homicide ever, it was more… because Yeshua is more than just a human. Fratricide (Murder of a Sibling) “So that He might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters” (Romans 8:29
