This past week in the Messianic blogosphere:
- Introducing Chavah – OK, so I usually don’t spam my own junk in the weekly bracha, but I’m pretty stoked about internet radio for Yeshua’s disciples, a little piece of software I’m particularly proud of authoring.
- Spirituality vs. Religion – Amusing anecdotes from Rabbi Russ Resnik as he describes his experience visiting the Church of Beethoven, which is said to be “Church, minus the religion”.

Oh, and not to forget, my younger sister Michaela has started blogging. Give her a visit over at Simcha Breath of Life. Let’s hope she blogs more consistently than some other new messianic bloggers!
Enjoy the weekly bracha bits!
