Kayte and I cover a variety of topics such as Biblical parenting, the Millennial faith, cancel culture, anxiety and depression in Millennials, and identity confusion.



Kayte Abaffy is an "accidental" documentary producer, a title she defines with her unique journey into the world of film and storytelling. A food enthusiast and former TV actor, Kayte has carved out a niche working alongside her husband, journalist Luke Abaffy.

Scribbles and Scriptures: Books That Restore True Names of YHWH with Brittani Ramirez
Hi Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity! Brittani Ramirez is my guest today.



Brittani Ramirez is the heart and soul behind Scribbles and Scriptures, a whole Bible-believing Christian family dedicated to creating and sharing books that honor the true names of Elohim and the Messiah. In a world where mainstream Christian literature often omits these sacred names, Brittani and her family strive to restore them to their rightful place in hearts and teachings. While the Torah-led believers community embraces a variety of names, they frequently use "Yah" to encompass diverse beliefs in many of their works.



At Scribbles and Scriptures, Brittani’s journey is one of continuous learning and growth in love for YHWH. Her mission is to provide families with wholesome, truth-filled books that they can cherish and add to their libraries. Covering a wide range of topics—from prayers and being set-apart believers to the significance of the rainbow, biblical feasts, and mainstream holidays—Brittani seeks to instill truth without adhering to man-made doctrines.



With a focus on avoiding traditions rooted in human customs, Brittani emphasizes the importance of teaching children to anchor themselves in the Word and in prayer. Above all, her aim is to nurture a deep, personal relationship with YHWH through the books she creates.



Brittani is a proud mother of five wonderful children and a devoted follower of YHWH. When she's not managing sibling squabbles or scrubbing the kitchen, Brittani can be found hunched over her keyboard, pouring her heart into her writing. She writes not only because it brings her joy but also because she feels a deep calling to share the beauty and challenges of her spiritual journey. Through her words, Brittani invites others to join her in exploring faith, family, and the joys and trials of living a Torah-observant Christian life.

The Hebrew Roots of Spiritual Armor with Jessica Knock – Part 2
 Jessica says: "Spiritual warfare and prayer is about discernment. This is an important tool and character of prayer that we need to be walking in and using all the time. The word armor in Hebrew sounds like the word Sharon. It's spelled S H R I O N. And again, that's meaning to protect, to make secure... The Aramaic to that, is a word called Zanga, Z A N G A H, and that's not just referring to armor, but it's referring to military might, military equipment."



Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity! My guest is Jessica Knock.



Jessica Knock is a passionate co-founder and seasoned leader in both ministry and broadcasting. Alongside her late husband, Shane Knock, she dedicated over 40 years of service as an itinerant preacher and missionary. Together, they pioneered several impactful projects, most notably co-launching the Hollywood Classics Network on the Sky Television platform in Europe and the UK. This groundbreaking initiative marked the first-ever faith-based movie, comedy, and family channel, blending silver screen favorites with Christian content and ministry programming, designed to evangelize the Gospel across the airwaves.



In 2020, Jessica took her wealth of ministry and broadcasting experience to new heights by founding EWHAL, Eatin Wild Honey and Locust, an online Torah-based teaching ministry. With a heart for shepherding and equipping the Body of Christ, she has made it her mission to bring a Hebraic understanding of Scripture to believers in today’s world—particularly in these prophetic times. Through EWHAL, Jessica has fostered the growth of Torah communities both in-person and online, and she actively hosts and introduces the appointed feasts in regions such as the UK, Australasia, Europe, and Africa. Her work continues to inspire and empower believers to walk out their faith with a deep, rooted understanding of the Word of God.

Understanding the Wedding Betrothal and other Scripture Insights with Terry Murphy
Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity! My guest is author, writer, and speaker Terry Murphy.



We talked about the wedding betrothal in Scripture, picking up your cross, and the Feast of the Lord as well as her book, A Place for Me in God's Tent.



Terry Murphy is a writer and speaker who is passionate about uncovering the clues of God’s presence and wisdom in both His Word and creation. She is dedicated to helping others grow in their wonder, appreciation, and understanding of God, believing that by discovering fresh ways to approach Scripture together, we can all expand our ability to apply and share the truths we learn.



When she isn’t writing or speaking, Terry mentors fellow writers through Word Weavers International, a community where writers can network, form critique groups, and refine their communication skills. Outside of her professional work, Terry finds joy in tending to her garden, a personal reward after finishing her writing. If you happen to visit her home, be prepared for a lively atmosphere—especially if her grandchildren are around! However, even if the noise makes conversation tricky, you’re sure to be entertained. If Terry isn’t available to chat, she may be out hiking with her husband in one of the nearby nature preserves, but don’t hesitate to leave a note, and she’ll get back to you as soon as she can.

His Appointed Times: A Spiritual Journey with Christine Vales
Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity! My guest is Christine Vales.



The Lord gave Christine Vales a deep desire to serve and point others to Him just before the turn of the century.  It has been a beautiful journey and she is still discovering the gifts He planted in her - to use them to serve others and bring glory to Him. ​​



​Christine and her husband, Carlos, began exploring the Hebrew roots of their Christian faith, Christine discovered the Lord’s prophetic calendar. The Lord began to stir her prophetic gift through understanding His appointed times and seasons as they were understood by His people and the need for them to be understood today.  After several years of studying and creating her own handwritten Hebrew/Gregorian calendar and journal, she sought to purchase one, but to no avail   She then began to understand the Lord was calling her as a teacher and that this would be her next assignment.



Christine created the first edition of “His Appointed Times: Hebrew/Gregorian Calendar & Journal” in 2017.  Soon after its release, the Lord prompted Christine to continue to “feed His sheep.”  She then began posting her “Chalkboard Teachings” and other encouragements on her website, YouTube and social media.  Her online teaching ministry began to blossom and continues to produce fruit worldwide.​ Over the years, Christine has continued to develop and create annual editions of “His Appointed Times” as well as other prophetic resources. These prophetic tools have been used and enjoyed by many, including ministers Bill Yount, Pastor Trisha Roselle, Jen Mallan, and  Pastor Ray Bentley.  



Christine's articles on His times and seasons have been published on  The Elijah List  Charisma Magazine and other prophetic platforms. Christine is blessed to be a regular monthly contributor on CTN's "Come Home with Jen Mallan" as well as Theresa Rowe's "Shaped by Faith" podcast.​



Christine and her husband Carlos are graduates of Charis Bible College Orlando, FL . The truths Christine has learned through the study of God's word and receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit has given her boldness and confidence in God's word.  She has also received a fresh revelation of the love of God and desires to share this essential truth of His love with others.



The Lord has equipped both, Christine and Carlos to not only be life-long students of His word but to be effective ministers and teachers of His word.  As Charis Bible College Orlando, FL alumni, they serve the current student body in interactive training groups and has accompanied the 2024 graduating class on their mission trip to Costa Rica.​ Christine continues on to follow and fulfill His calling on her life, as she has since the beginning of her story and knows the best is yet to come for all who are His.  Jer 29:11

Ancient Hebrew in the Stars: Exploring Archaeo-Astronomy with Shauna Manfredine
Did you know some constellations have been changed from their God-given names and meanings?



Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity. My guest, Shauna Manfredine, has been teaching on Archaeo-Astronomy from a biblical perspective for many years.



Shauna and Mark Manfredine are the co-founders of Lighted Way Ministries. Their journey with Torah began in the late 1990s, and since 2007, they have been dedicated to full-time ministry. They were married in 1990, and are blessed with two children and five grandchildren. The couple resides in Roseburg, Oregon, where their ministry center is located, enjoying the local river wildlife and stargazing.



Lighted Way Ministries is known for hosting Sabbath worships, retreats, and annual Feast camps. The ministry also offers a variety of resources, including books, online classes, and weekly Sabbath broadcasts. Both Mark and Shauna are passionate about teaching Bible prophecy in relation to current events, Torah, and spiritual warfare principles. Shauna, in particular, is an expert in Archaeo-Astronomy from a Biblical perspective. Her current projects include writing her twelfth book, "Ancient Hebrew in the Stars," and developing a YouTube series called Preschool Praise, aimed at teaching Torah stories and principles to children aged two to five.



Archaeoastronomy studies how ancient cultures understood, interpreted, and used celestial phenomena. It combines aspects of archaeology, astronomy, and anthropology to explore the connections between the sky and ancient human societies. Specifically, it examines how historical peoples observed and recorded astronomical events, for example, the movements of the sun, moon, stars, and planets, and how these observations influenced their architecture, calendars, religion, and daily life.



Shauna's online Torah and Prophecy classes will start again on September 2 (and run weekly through May, meeting on Mondays and Wednesdays).
