Ep. 191 - From Manna to Mass: An Ancient Jewish Hope Fulfilled

Together, we’ll plunge into Old Testament echoes, uncover the surprising connection between the Eucharist and the lost paradise of Eden, and trace how Jesus transforms the Passover bread into something shockingly new. Join us for a journey through John 6 where heaven, history, and hunger collide. Read more.
