In this episode, we explore the Feast of Dedication—Hanukkah—through the lens of John 10:22–24, where Jesus walks in Solomon’s Porch during winter and is confronted with the question: “If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.” We place this moment in its historical and spiritual context by looking back at Judah Maccabee, the warrior-judge raised up by God to deliver Israel from foreign oppression and restore the Temple. His story of courage, victory, and national deliverance sets the backdrop for a deeper revelation: Yeshua the Messiah did not come as a conquering warrior, but as a humble Servant—bringing salvation not from armies, but from sin. Drawing from Isaiah, Luke, Matthew, and John, we contrast outward deliverance with inward transformation, and ask an essential question: Where is light more valued—outward prosperity or the inner man? Jesus declares Himself the Light of the World, the One who opens blind eyes, frees prisoners from darkness, forgives sins, and brings rest to weary souls. As Hanukkah celebrates dedication and light, this episode calls us to a fresh dedication to the Lord’s service—allowing the true Light to shine brightly in our lives. Let this season of dedication be more than remembrance—let it be renewal. Want to learn more about our ministry?

Can the Church stay relevant without becoming the same as the world? This episode unpacks how to meet people in their brokenness while staying rooted in biblical truth. Be blessed! 

In this week's podcast Aaron attempts to discover the essence of worship. He asks his wife, the president and the president’s daughter. He even asks the musical prodigy Ben (but you’ll have to email Aaron for the link to that interview aaron@loveandpurity.com) Just in case you’re short on time, the key takeaway is removing “me” from worship. Shifting your focus to God, and not on ourselves. Not our ability to sing or play an instrument, but to truly pour ourselves out before an almighty God. Make sure to watch for insights on how to actually do this. Be blessed! 📣 You're Invited!

In this week's podcast titled “Sing!”we explore one of the most repeated invitations in Scripture — to sing. From Deborah’s song in Judges to the song of the Lamb in Revelation, the Bible reminds us that singing is more than melody; it’s ministry. This episode reflects on passages where God’s people lifted their voices in praise, thanksgiving, and victory. We’ll talk about why we sing, who we sing to, and what happens when we fill our hearts and minds with songs of worship instead of the noise of the world. You’ll also hear how modern science echoes what Scripture has always said — that singing heals, unites, and frees. Because even on the hardest days, when there seems to be no song in your heart… sing anyway.   📣 You're Invited!

Aaron and family are finally back home! Aaron thought it would be wise to sit down and spend some time with Brayden discussing what it means to have a whole heart. Specifically a whole heart for God. We can’t be whole and have holes and we can’t be in pieces and have peace.  In case you missed it, we have launched a new channel dedicated to our music. It will host our musical albums as well as scripture memory verses and sometimes just our fun songs that we like to sing while we are out and about.

This week, Aaron welcomes long-time friend, street evangelist, and passionate pro-life advocate Dennis Green to the show. Together, they dive into a powerful conversation about standing for life on the front lines — quite literally — as Aaron shares his recent experience demonstrating outside a Planned Parenthood in Virginia. What’s the big takeaway? When believers show up, lives are saved. It's that simple — and that profound. This truth stretches far beyond the pro-life movement; it’s a call to action for every believer. Whether it’s your workplace, community, or mission field, showing up and letting the Holy Spirit do the heavy lifting can change everything. So get off the couch, step into the fight, and remember: we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers. It's not just a battle — it’s a Fight for the Heart.   In case you missed it, we have launched a new channel dedicated to our music.

Join Aaron Hood and special guest Zac Waller as they ask the question “What does atonement look like in practice”. Zac unpacks Mark 5 where we see the unclean being made clean by a transformative work of faith and humility accompanied by verbal confession of fault. As Yeshua says justification came for the tax collector that beat his chest and said “ have mercy on me a sinner “ and the one who kept the law was caught in his pride.Confession isn’t just admission—it’s a commanded, transformative act that completes repentance. In this episode, we explore the Hebrew root yadah, unpack scriptural examples from Leviticus to 1 John, and discuss why verbal confession is key to healing, forgiveness, and restoration. Learn how to bring hidden sin into the light and lean on the Head of the offering.Take the challenge to “confess your faults one to another” and experience the healing.

🧭 Episode Summary: In this episode, we explore the deep spiritual significance of Rosh HaShana—not just as the Jewish New Year, but as the day when kings were anointed and their reigns were officially recognized. This season invites us to acknowledge God's Kingship, submit to His righteous judgment, and align our hearts with the Kingdom of Heaven. 🔑 Key Themes Covered: 👑 1. Rosh HaShana & Kingship ● Historically, Rosh HaShana marked the beginning of a king’s reign in Israel. ● Spiritually, it’s a time for the people of God to acknowledge the true King—the Lord of Hosts—and submit to His rule. ● It’s not only about a new year, but a renewed alignment with the Kingdom of God. 🌍 2. A Kingdom Perspective ● Scripture speaks of multiple "kingdoms": ○ Kingdom of Israel ○ Kingdom of God ○ Kingdom of Heaven (Matthew 10:7, Matthew 6:33) ● These are not merely future realities but present truths we are invited to participate in. ● The Kingdom is central to the gospel message Yeshua preached: “Your Kingdom come, Your will be done…” (Matthew 6:10) 🕊️ 3. Who Is This King? ● Psalm 24 boldly asks and answers: “Who is this King of Glory? The LORD strong and mighty…” ● The New Testament reveals Yeshua as this King—promised, rejected, crucified, but ultimately exalted. ● He is called: ○ King of the Jews (Matthew 2:2, 27:29) ○ King of Israel (John 1:49) ○ King of Kings and Lord of Lords (Revelation 17:14; 19:16) ○ The Blessed and Only Potentate (1 Timothy 6:15) 🔥 4. The King Who Judges ● Yeshua is not only Savior and King but also Judge: ○ “He was ordained by God to be Judge of the living and the dead.” (Acts 10:42) ○ All will stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:10; Romans 14:10) ○ As Paul declares in 2 Timothy 4:1, His judgment is tied directly to His appearing and His Kingdom. 📖 5. The End of All Rule ● Ultimately, Christ’s kingship culminates in the final defeat of all enemies, including death itself (1 Corinthians 15:24–28). ● He will hand the Kingdom over to the Father, and God will be all in all. ● Until then, He reigns “far above all principality and power” (Ephesians 1:20–23), seated at the right hand of the Father.     🎧 Reflection & Application: ● Rosh HaShana is a call to kingdom living—to seek first His Kingdom and righteousness. ● It’s a time to ask: Do I truly live under the rule of the King? ● The King is coming. His Kingdom is eternal. And we are called to be faithful citizens and co-heirs with Him.     📖 Scriptures Referenced: ● Psalms 24 | Matthew 6, 10, 21, 25, 27 | Revelation 15, 17, 19 ● 1 Timothy 6 | 1 Corinthians 15 | Ephesians 1 | Acts 10 | 2 Corinthians 5 | Romans 14 | Luke 19, 12

In this episode, we dive deep into 1 Timothy 2:8, where Paul makes a pointed and passionate plea:“I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.”Why does Paul specifically call out men? Because the reality is—many men struggle with consistent, fervent prayer. Prayer is often seen as passive or unproductive, yet Jesus Himself taught that men ought always to pray and not lose heart (Luke 18:1). In this teaching, we’ll explore:🔹 A Call to Men – Why prayer isn’t optional for godly men, and how powerful examples like Elijah (James 5:17) show what can happen when ordinary men pray earnestly. 🔹 Everywhere and Always – From the secret place to the public square, men are called to pray in every place and at all times (Luke 21:36, Col. 1:9). 🔹 Lifting Holy Hands – What does it mean to raise hands that are clean—not just in gesture, but in character and conduct? (Psalm 24:4, Job 17:9). 🔹 Without Wrath and Doubting – Why anger and unbelief hinder your prayers—and how humility, faith, and spiritual discipline can restore power to your prayer life (James 1:19-20, Matthew 21:21).With insights from Scripture and fiery quotes from spiritual giants like Wesley, Finney, Ravenhill, and Wigglesworth, this episode is a call to arms—arms lifted in holy, faith-filled prayer.Because as Ravenhill said:“No man is greater than his prayer life.”

In a world where wickedness thrives when justice is forgotten, this podcast is a call to action for believers who are called to uphold a divine standard: justice as God defines it. Drawing deeply from Scripture, each episode explores the timeless and powerful truth that God is a God of justice—one who defends the fatherless, upholds the oppressed, and judges with righteousness. Through real-life scenarios, biblical exposition, and the foundational Hebrew concept of מִשְׁפָּט (mishpat), we unpack how justice is more than a legal term—it is a holy virtue. We’ll explore how justice intersects with mercy, judgment with grace, and how believers can discern between righteous accountability and wrongful condemnation. Join Aaron as he brings out Justice as an attribute of God and how we are to promote His Justice on earth. From Moses to the prophets, from Christ to the apostles, this podcast is a journey through Scripture that challenges listeners to seek justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. Because without justice, there is no peace—and without righteousness, there is no justice. “Let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.” — Amos 5:24  

What does it mean to be meek in a world that demands strength? Can gentleness and warfare coexist? In this episode, we explore the biblical concept of ‛ănâvâh — often translated as gentleness, humility, or meekness — and how it reveals a strength that doesn't shout, but stands firm. Drawing from both Hebrew and Greek roots, we'll see how Scripture paints meekness not as weakness, but as power under control — the kind of strength that pursues justice, stands boldly in truth, and yet walks humbly with God. You'll hear reflections on: •2 Samuel 22 — where God’s gentleness makes us great even in the midst of battle   •Psalm 45 & 149 — showing how humility and righteousness are weapons of the King   •The life of Yeshua (Jesus) — who rode a donkey, washed feet, and was crucified in humility, yet confronted hypocrites with fearless clarity   •Practical wisdom from Paul and others — on restoring others, resolving conflict, and walking in unity with a spirit of meekness   We'll also share a personal story — how my father modeled humility not with grand words, but with quiet strength and patience. He didn’t "put on airs" — and that left a lasting legacy. 🔑 Key takeaways: •A meek person is secure in their identity in Christ.   •A meek person resolves conflict with restraint.   •A meek person lives from a position of humility.   Gentleness is not passivity. Meekness is not weakness. It's the way of the Kingdom — strong, grounded, and full of grace.

Ability or Dependability? This week join Aaron with special guest Sean Butler as they unpack the Faithful fruit. In Scripture, the concept of faith is often misunderstood as mere belief or mental agreement. However, a deeper look at both the Hebrew (אָמֵן – aman, H539) and Greek (πιστεύω – pisteuō, G4100) roots reveals a fuller picture: faith is trustworthiness, reliability, and dependability—not just belief in God, but faithfulness to God. “The just shall live by his faith.” – Habakkuk 2:4 In both the Old and New Testaments, faith is consistently shown through action and loyalty. It’s not enough to acknowledge God’s existence; true faith manifests as consistent obedience and unwavering commitment to God’s ways. This is why Abraham was counted righteous—not because he believed God existed, but because he trusted and obeyed Him. Moses, too, is called faithful in all God's house—not because of what he believed, but because of how he lived. Even Jesus commended individuals for their faith when He saw their actions—like the friends who lowered the paralytic through the roof (Matt. 9:2) or the Canaanite woman whose persistence led to her daughter’s healing (Matt. 15:28). A faithful husband is not judged by his beliefs, but by his consistency, loyalty, and actions. Likewise, God calls His people to demonstrate faith by their dependability—by living lives that reflect His character. Faithfulness is Dependability ● Keeping commitments, even when it’s hard. ● Trusting God's Word enough to live by it. ● Showing up consistently—for others and for God. ● Obeying when it’s inconvenient. ● Being loyal to God's Kingdom over worldly pressures. Faith is more than ability. It’s not about being strong, talented, or capable in ourselves—it’s about being reliable and loyal to God, just as He is to us: "Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; He is the faithful God." – Deuteronomy 7:9 Faithfulness is the Victory In the end, it’s not ability but faithfulness that overcomes the world. “This is the victory that overcomes the world—even our faith.” – 1 John 5:4

This week’s fruit is Goodness, or beneficence if you want to sound fancy. Have you ever picked grapes from an orange tree? Or dates from a pomegranate tree? Of course not. Can you bear good fruit? Only if the goodness of messiah is in you. Aaron and Victoria discuss fruit today, good fruit. Did you notice Victoria’s finger? She was getting a bit carried away in the vineyard picking fruit and nearly gave herself an amputation. I might be exaggerating a bit. If you watch the video she’ll tell you all about it.

This week’s fruit is Kindness, and it’s a tough one. Most of us would consider ourselves kind, and usually we are. But what happens when we aren’t? Why do we stop being Kind? Randy Hilton is today’s guest, and he shares some very insightful knowledge about why we stop being kind, and just as importantly, how to grow the Kindness Fruit. Aaron was so excited about today’s episode that he went and interviewed 2 of his favorite people so we went ahead and stuck those bonus interviews on the at the end. If you’re wondering what donut holes have to do with the Kindness Fruit, you’ll have to stick around until the end to hear Luke Hilton from the Israel Guys explain it.

This week’s fruit is Patience, or maybe more accurately, waiting with joy. It can also be translated long suffering. Patience sounds a lot easier than long suffering doesn’t it? Aaron is joined by special guest Britt Waller for this week as they delve into this muscle that we must exercise in order to work out our salvation. Aaron also shares 7 ways that growing our patience muscle will help us in our every day lives.  In case you missed it, we have launched a new channel dedicated to our music.

This week’s fruit is Peace. When we think of Israel, how often do we think of peace? It seems to be rather elusive over there, and yet, the city where God put his name - Jerusalem - bears witness to His plans to bring peace not only to this tiny nation, but to the entire world. It will only be through the Prince of Peace, Yeshua the messiah that this peace will even be possible.  In case you missed it, we have launched a new channel dedicated to our music.

But the greatest of these is LOVE. We know that we are requires to love like Yeshua loved. It’s easy to love the lovable, but what about “those” people who really seem unlovable?

This week’s fruit is Joy. Exceeding Joy! Listen and be inspired as Aaron shares about the fruit of the spirit. Joy is the defining characteristic of believers at the end of the end of the age. David, despite his many troubles, found great cause to rejoice. He called the Law of the LORD his delight. We must train our emotions to be one of joy, despite the circumstances that may surround us   Well based on the response last week, no one wanted a CD so maybe a t-shirt would be more enticing?
