After about 50 years in the faith, I have noticed that many in the Hebrew Roots Awakening are not aware of the foundational teachings of the faith.  I have placed the below list together to assist you in getting to learn the basics. Please note that although some material is not from Messianic /Hebrew Roots labeled ministries, per se, they do contain sound Scripturally messages.

The below listing is not intended to be a blanket endorsement of any of the ministries listed below. Many appear to look for the perfect ministry. No one--person, minister, ministry, church--is perfect in knowledge or living their lives. Once you, an imperfect person, walk into a fellowship, that fellowship is no longer perfect. One person was "perfect' and they crucified Him. 

The Festivals: Booklets explaining the Biblical Feasts by Dean and Susan Wheelock:            

The Spring Festivals: Passover
The Spring Festivals: Shavu'ot--The Feast of Weeks
The Fall Festivals: High Holy Days
The Fall Festivals: Sukkot and Shemini Atzeret

The FUTURE AND HOPE: Revealing the Concealed Patterns in God's Festivals by Mike Bacon. Our Loving Creator has a wonderful Future and Hope planned for ALL Humanity.  The Plan comes from outside of time and is contained in an Integrated Design encoded in the 49 Books* of the Bible written by over 40 authors spanning 2500 years.

Repentance  What is Real Repentance? This is Lesson 9 of the former free Ambassador College Correspondence Course formerly offered by the now defunct Sabbath and Feast keeping Worldwide Church of God. For new believers in the faith it is important to know the meaning of repentance. The WCG and its subseuent break-off churches cherry-picked which of the "613" Torah instructions they wanted to keep.  Nevertheless  they offered fine publications, like this one, which effectively taught Scriptural subjects.

Conspiracy Against Divine Sexuality-It All Started In Eden
by Mike Mordalkhai Joseph
One of the most powerful human forces, 'responsible', at times, even for the demise of many 'high and mighty', is that 'lethal', passionate human force: Sex Drive. Be it men or women; practitioners of religion or atheists--all are affected positively or adversely by this most complex of all human drives. To some, it is 'the road to glory', to others, it is a nemesis. For those who ascribe to the Biblical narrative, these questions beg for clear answers: How was sex meant to be? Why was human sexuality given to the human race? Who 'invented' it and originally illuminated the first couple of its complexity? What was sex like in the Garden of Eden? Who threw 'the monkey wrench' into the wheel that propels this divinelyordained human sexuality and why? How did he do it? How can you entangle the 'mess' he created? Human sexuality, with its tempestuous, pleasurable and passionate streams of fire, should have been the roaring engine that propels us to all the lofty heights of our personal mountains. Yet for many, it is theabyss that seems to gather the shattered and disillusioned fragments of our grieving sexual lives. Brace yourself for enlightening answers. 430 pages, soft cover: $21.75 Electronic book: $5.95

"Sorry...!   There is No Afterlife!
None Goes to Heaven or Hell!  God Jesus Muhammad

by Mike Mordalkhai Joseph

According to Irans president, Ahmadinejad, the purpose of the revolution and nuclear Iran is to prepare for the imminent return of the Mahdi, the twelfth Imam. Hence Israel must be destroyed, the West must be subjugated, and the rest of the world must submit to the coming Mahdis Reign of peace on earth.

If the belief in an afterlife -- immediately after death -- is true, then both the Bible and the Quran should fully confirm it in plain words. but what if they, instead, contradict it? What if God, Jesus, and Muhammad are not the source of this doctrine? What if the doctrine of an afterlife immediately after death is a hoax? What if man has no immortal soul? In the pages of this book, the unbiased reader will discover the real story about the afterlife, the true destiny of humanity, the true location of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and its link to the afterlife.
