Getting Ready: Physical and Spiritual Preparedness for the Storms of Life
Synopsis:
While I am no expert in prepping or survival, I have lived through two natural disasters, including a complete grid down situation and know firsthand the importance of (physical) preparation. Further, Yeshua tells us several times to be on the alert and ready for His return. In this presentation, I discuss physical preparedness and how it is a model for our spiritual readiness. I will also discuss how I believe scripture tells us we can prepare ourselves spiritually for His return.
I have felt the Father leading me to discuss this for a long time. I believe one of the big takeaways from Yeshua’s message on the solid rock, is we will all encounter storms in life. Hearing His words and putting them into practice gives us the spiritual preparedness we need to weather these storms on solid ground.
Bio:
I am from Cedar Rapids and have worked in software development in some capacity for 24 years. I am currently a Scrum Master at TaxAct and hold an A-CSM certification. More importantly, I was saved at age 13 when I first read the bible as homework for my Lutheran confirmation. I realized the wisdom coming from those pages was not something a person could have written by themselves.
In 2002 I was introduced to Torah and the Sabbath and studied scripture in order to prove that “heresy” wrong. While quoting Acts 15:20-21 to prove my side, I stopped in my tracks wondering what on earth gentiles had to do with Moses being preached in the synagogues on the Sabbath. From there I embarked on a long journey I am frankly still on to understand His Word and do it the best I can.

Title:
The Word of our Testimony
Synopsis:
I believe that I have been a word of revelation and encouragement to share with His people in these last days. The message that is in my heart is to bring understanding to what our testimony really is and that their is great value in it. I believe that so many that share their testimony, only share a part of what is described as having power to overcome the enemy.
Rev 12:11 They have conquered him (the enemy) by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, And they did not love their lives so as to shy away from death.
When or if we share our testimony we tend to focus on our testimony (our response to the Father) rather than focusing on His testimonies (What He has and is doing in our lives)! Have we become selfish in our view of our testimony? Have we forgotten the power of sharing our testimony of what He has done in us with others?
Psalm 119:46 I will also speak of Your testimonies before kings And shall not be ashamed
1 Corinthians 2:1 And when I came to you, brethren, I did not come with superiority of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.
When we share our testimony of what Yahweh has done in our lives, it has the ability to transform the world around us. No longer would people be able to challenge whether Elohim exist, for we can prove His existence by the very testimonies of what He has done in our lives. I believe by sharing His testimonies of healing and deliverance and reconciliation, these are the greatest tools of evangelism that we possess. I believe His body must be equipped with understanding of both the blood of the Lamb, and the word of our testimony to really be effective in overcoming and transforming the world around us!
Bio:
My parents are Dean and Shirlene Funk, some of you may know them. I am 43 years old. I come from a large family with six siblings. I am currently married, we have been for 22 years. We have five children ranging from 19 to 6 years old. I currently own two businesses and I am a licensed Home Inspector. I currently live in Linden, Wisconsin. I have been a believer for the last 32 years, and I’ve been walking in the ways of Torah for the last 12 years. I have been in His ministry for the last 25 years in areas of youth, music, men’s outreach, discipleship, teaching and preaching.
My life started with a great display of Elohim’s power of healing in my life. This testimony of what He did in my life is what fuels my passion to encourage His people to share the testimonies of Elohim with others. I am in the process of writing a book about His miracles in my life. When I was born I was injured by the negligence of a doctor. This negligence caused me to be born with a cerebral palsy injury. Until 2 years old I couldn’t walk or speak clearly. After about two weeks of prayer the doctors were amazed to see that the damage to my brain was gone. They couldn’t believe it, although they said I would never walk or talk correctly. Again they were wrong, because this was Elohim’s story not theirs! I was completely healed, with only a reminder and proof that He healed me from this injury. My left hand is smaller than my right hand indicating that I once had a right brain injury. What a blessing that I have in my hands, I have physical proof that Elohim exists and still heals today!

The Sounding of the Shofar
Synopsis:
The Shofar is a biblical instrument, usually made from a ram’s horn, but sometimes from a goat, antelope or kudu. The Shofar is mentioned over 70 times in Scripture. It is used in announcing, warning, celebrations, and the coronation of kings. The ram’s horn represents the ram caught by its horns when Abraham was about to sacrifice Isaac. Likewise, it represents Yeshua, our substitute and deliverer, the Horn of our Salvation. The sounding of the shofar calls Yahweh’s people to repentance, faith and devotion.
If you would like to use your shofar as a tool of worship during this feast, it will be helpful to come to this training session! Join us as we learn about the basics of the shofar, various calls and their functions, and shofar protocol. Bring your shofars along!
Title:
Insights of a Shepherd
Synopsis:
Romans 1:20 speaks of Divine revelation being expressed through the natural. Some of God’s Word deals with agricultural and rural subjects. Today many live in an urban, man-made environment and the agricultural truths in God’s word could be missed because we are unfamiliar with such basic things as plants, animals, and soils and the laws, principles, and functions that unchangeably govern them.
The patriarchs were all shepherds. Yeshua says in John 10:14 “I am the Good Shepherd and know my sheep and am known of mine”. In this presentation I intend to demonstrate Scriptural principles in a way the audience will understand and remember the attributes of a good shepherd through the interaction of the sheep and their shepherd.

Ryan White
Title:
God With Us
Synopsis:
The theme of “God with us” is a central concept in the Bible. It emphasizes the idea that God comes down to be with humanity, rather than being distant and uninvolved. In this teaching, Ryan explores this theme throughout the biblical narrative, from the Garden of Eden to the tabernacle and temple, and ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ. The teaching highlights the personal and intimate nature of God’s relationship with us, as well as his desire to raise us up to him.

613 Ways to Love God

Our destination will be a better understanding of what it means to keep the Law today as a believer in Yeshua.

Building Healthy Assemblies – Panel Discussion
Synopsis:
Campfire conversations from past Sukkots have spurred us to put together a time when we can talk about what it means to ‘grow a healthy assembly’. The real problem is it is a little different from what we use to do in the church. There are a lot of similarities, but there are differences.
Four assembly leaders/leader groups will give a 15-minute presentation on what they do/try to do/plan to do to grow a healthy assembly. We are counting on the four presentations to not be the same, and possibly be quite different. We will follow this up with an hour roundtable discussion for questions and comments.
Presented by:
Rick and Kim Stotts
Bio:
We are blessed with a large mixed family. We have seven children, one who was adopted. We just welcomed into the world our 22nd grandchild – Veloria. All of them claimed to be Christian, some to greater degree, some less. We have been a part of a Hebrew Roots community for 13 years, and our lives, marriage and faith have been incredibly blessed by it. Unfortunately we did not get into Hebrew Roots until well after all of our kids left home and started families, and they do not share our enthusiasm for this perspective – yet.
We thank God for our Sabbath group and our Sukkot group. We treasure out time together, and keep you in our prayers. You are family.
Being retired give us a little more time for research. That is what we are sharing. We pray it is profitable for you.
We live in Webster City, Iowa, about 40 miles east of Twin Lakes.

The Rehearsal desires to provide messages that encourage and exhort the body to a greater relationship with our Heavenly Father. While we believe that all of the selected speakers also share this goal, we do realize that not everyone has the same understanding of the scriptures. The messages may not reflect the exact beliefs held by the board but may provide an opportunity for study and introspection. We ask that grace and mercy rule our conversations and questions while discussing various topics and ideas that may or may not agree with your understanding.
