What is “Grafted Branches” all about?

To Know Him

Our first and foremost goal and reason for existing is to give you tools to help you to get to know the God of creation and Jesus, our Messiah and Lord.  

If we know and love Jesus then we are obligated to understand His teachings.  Looking at current scholarly research of the historical and cultural context of the first-century Israel, where God chose to place His son, gives believers fresh insight into His words and teachings and helps us to live them out our daily lives. 

Jesus is a Jew. He was born in Israel where He lived, taught, died and was risen according to the same text that declares the Jewish people as God’s First Born. We who are gentiles need to remember that we are “the nations” who have been “grafted into the rich root of the olive tree” and the ancient promise made to Abraham through faith. 

The ancient sages say that if one wants to get to know God he or she should follow and get to know someone who knows Torah.  The reasoning is the person who really knows Torah is someone who doesn’t just have ”head knowledge” of the bible, but they live and walk with God in everything they do.  

A Safe Place to Study and Get To Know Jesus

Our goal is to provide a safe environment where, through study and personal application, people can learn and know the Messiah of the text and the love and mercy of God in Him.
