June 21st, 2021 Teaching Event - Hebraic Roots of Our Faith to Understanding Jesus
Joe Amaral – Author, Teacher, Speaker, Tour Leader
FHM Zoom Teaching Event
Monday – June 21, 2021
6:30pm to 8:30pm (CST in the US)
Overview of Joe Amaral’s Teaching:
- Modern-day Christians often use a 21st-century worldview to understand Jesus. However, Joe Amaral delves deep into Jewish history, societal mores, and cultural traditions, closing the gap created by geographical distance and more than two thousand years of history so that the full beauty and power of Jesus’ teachings come alive.
- Using a chronological approach to the life of Christ, Amaral guides the reader through significant events such as Jesus’ birth, baptism, and crucifixion, pointing out illuminating details that the Western mind normally misses.
- Amaral explains to understand Jesus: we must understand the time and place in which he was born, the background from which he drew his illustrations, and the audience he spoke to.
- He’ll explore specific terms, places, and events for their significance and show how they add richness and meaning to the text: the connection between Jesus and John the Baptist, the annual Feasts and why they are important to modern Christianity, Jewish customs such as foot-washing, clean and unclean foods, paying tribute to political governments, and the significance of various miracles.
- Get back to the foundation of your faith, exploring these ancient Hebraic roots.
Zoom Event Includes:
- Teaching and Q&A Time.
- Two drawings for Understanding Jesus: Cultural Insights into the Words and Deeds of Christ.

Change Your Life in 8 Months - One Saturday a Month
There are not many things I am as sure of as this, that the schools Freedom House Ministry offers—Course 201 and Course 202—will impact your life for good more than most other courses, seminars, conferences, or weekend retreats.
Having been part of these schools for over 20 years, I have personally been positively impacted each and every year, and we have hundreds of students that have testified to the same personal and spiritual impact.
You will experience being loved and accepted in a more profound way than ever before.
You will have your ways of thinking and feeling challenged in a way that transforms how you view and feel about yourself, others, life, even how you view God and how you feel about Him.
This is so worth one Saturday a month, only ONE Saturday a month for 8 months!
Aren’t you worth this investment?
Yes, You’re Worth It!
Submit your application today.
Deadline for applications is August 28 by US mail.
Laughing Your Way to Healing Workshop - March 24, 2018
Freedom House Ministry is excited to host an afternoon of joy & laughter led by…
Mari Anne Andersen & Melliney Saltarelli
Saturday, March 24, 2018 – 12:30 to 4:30pm (Doors open at 12:00pm)
View & Share "Laughing Your Way to Healing" Event Flyer
Did you hear about why the cookie went to the hospital? Because he felt crummy!
Why did Johnny throw the clock out of the window? He wanted to see time fly!
What do you call a fake noodle? An impasta!
Do you know the answers to these questions?
- What happens to your blood vessels when you laugh? Is it good or bad for them?
- How does laughter affect your emotional brain health?
- What can laughter do for your struggle with stress and anxiety?
- Can laughter be a “food” for your body? If so, how?
- How can you increase your respiratory rate and oxygen consumption without paying a doctor’s bill?
- Isn’t the Bible an old, stuffy book that makes people feel condemned and sad?
- What can laughter do to fear? We all have it, and don’t know what to do with it!
- How can you stop wasting your life?
According to that adorable and hysterical comic Charlie Chaplin, you are wasting your life if you spend your days without laughter: “A day without laughter is a day wasted.”
Come and get the answers to these questions and many more. Find out how you can change “a day wasted” to a “day of investment” in your heart, emotional, and brain health!
The Bible is right! – A merry heart does good, like medicine Proverbs 17:22a
Join us as we learn the value of laughter from God’s perspective, from science’s perspective, and from medicine’s perspective.
Three aspects will be presented and experienced at this workshop:
- The Scriptural, scientific, and medical foundation for the importance of laughter in our lives.
- Handouts to use during the workshop and to take home for practice—to understand what happens to the brain, the heart, and the spirit when YOU laugh.
- Practice exercises that will equip you to laugh in the days to come, to respond in new ways to the events in your life, to empower you to see from God’s perspective, to have childlike faith to believe that with God all things are possible!
Beware!!! Laughter will be on the premises!
