Torah For Women - Audio Blogs: Recent Episodes
Torah For Women
Torah For Women blogs are available in written form on our website. Yet many sisters have requested audio versions so they may listen on the road, while the work around the house, or because they have issues reading on the computer screens.
With so many requests coming in, we listened! And now you can listen to Torah For Women's audio blog readings any time, every where!
When we are listening to the Spirit and paying attention to the impressions he makes upon our hearts, it is amazing the things He does for us. Even the little things - sometimes even things we didn't know we were praying for. Simply unspoken hopes in our hearts - and yet He hears our hearts and answers us. THIS was one of those days.
Sometimes blessings we have been praying for come from unlikely places. It is up to us to be ready to recognize when they arrive and to praise Yahweh for those blessings! The wheelbarrow was one of those times....
Yahweh brings me great blessings through caring for His world that He created. I enjoy helping Him with the simple parts of working the soil and planting the seeds. His provisions always give us more than what we need - our Chamomile this year was another example of His provisions.
How do we know when we are not gossiping? This is the big question we get on this topic. In our modern times, with social media and an "anything goes" mentality, how do we know what is gossip and what is not? How do we know if we are just socializing or catching up with friends and family and when we have crossed the line? Judith Garton explores a few ideas based on possible life experiences. Let's learn together how to guard our tongues and love others as we would love ourselves.
We take a few minutes to answer a question about why we were led to call our women's ministry TORAH for Women and not focus on just Gospel for Women.
Am I responsible for "making" someone angry? Is it because of me that my spouse is hurt? These are good questions that need to be looked at from a Biblical perspective - what if we use Yahweh (God) as our example?
With viruses, vaccinations, riots, protests and violence being the topic of the day almost every single day, what do believers do at this time? What are we supposed to feel? Should we be afraid? What about the topic of world wide digital money? We take a quick look at this topic and hope to bring some peace to the minds of the sisters who are wondering where to go and what to do.
In this episode, Judith Garton discusses the definition of lashon hara and Torah For Women's perspective on the belief. This may be a longer listen, but it is well worth it for an understanding of this topic. And will lead to the next group of discussion on what Yahweh believes is righteous speech, especially in our modern day and age.
Many people use the term Lashon Hara every time another upsets or offends them. Others use the term when someone speaks ill against another. What does the term actually mean? How do we know when to use it and when not to? OR should believers even use the term at all? Judith Garton explores these questions and more in this series on Lashon Hara - evil speaking. In this first episode, she discusses how it is a "halacha" term and what that means.
Ever wonder what the root of bitterness is refering to? Think you don't have any bitterness toward another? What if you think you plucked it out, yet there is something left behind?
That root of bitterness needs to be worked on regularly to keep our hearts pure and focused on Yahweh. How can we do that? Judith shares a time when she had to serve someone who had hurt her greatly.
We don't believe the Feast Days are difficult. We show that they are simple to follow and honor, especially when you return to what scripture says.
Many times sister wonder what is work and what is not when it comes to Shabbat. One thing I feel is the MOST work of all is AFTER Shabbat clean-up! So many times I see a house destroyed or kitchen a mess and a family declare that is a successful Shabbat. Is this true? Explore this idea through this new discussion.
Your kids make a mess on Sabbath, do you have them clean it up? Your entire family leaves dishes to lay around the kitchen until sundown. Does this promote peace? How about cooking foods - can we reheat them on Shabbat? Find out our ideas in this audio blog.
Sometimes we think we are following commandments, yet we end up making things much more legalistic than Yahweh ever said. We make them a burden. Do you need idea on how to lift your Shabbat burden?
Serving in the military and being Torah observant may not always be easy, yet there are ways that you can still honor Feast Days and Sabbaths while serving. Use our ideas for jumping off points to create some great ways to be able to honor Yahweh and still serve in the military. These ideas may also help those in law enforcement, fire departments, medical fields, and such as well.

With Fall fast approaching, we know we will be getting questions as we do each year: What is WRONG with celebrating Halloween and holding Trunk or Treat at church? Judith Garton shares our perspective on this topic, and guides you through the decision making process.
Often, sisters new to following the Torah Principles fall into the thinking that the Day of Preparation is a commandment and that every single preparation MUST be accomplished on that day for Sabbath to be a restful success. But is that the truth? Is the Preparation day even IN the bible? In this blog article podcast, Judith Garton explores this topic and shares her ideas for making Prep day a bit easier.
