This is the Vemile Podcast with Marty Salman. I'm his co-host, Brent Billings. Today, we explore

the final three chapters of understanding the Jewish roots of Christianity, discussing the Jewish

character of the Church, and puzzling through what difference it makes to our lives as Christians.

Yeah, you know, one of the things about how we do things, Brent, as we always kind of record

And to that group, I say that's awesome. Thank you. I was really actually kind of surprised by how

much positive people are like, I love that episode. That was so great. I hope this series has been

helpful. I know it's been kind of weird. Like it's probably for a lot of people, the last three episodes

probably aren't your favorite episodes. It's like Marty reading excerpts out of a book. Like it's kind

of weird. I won't make a habit of doing that. I'm hoping that for some of you, maybe it's been like,
