Lauren I LOVE your story! My husband's parents were Sabbath keepers (and kosher) for very long but he fought it. Good charismatic Christian ;) But when he saw Shabbat then he understood everything as well. The Names. Israel. Feasts etc. Although I grew up knowing that Israel are the chosen people and that easter and christmas are rooted in paganism I didn't question further. Until I started questioning the unScriptural teachings and traditions the church (and leadership that I was a part of) practiced. I was asked to leave and really dug into Scripture, specifically the first 5 books for months. I came to the understanding the week before Pesach 2007 so every Passover is a special one for me. And how blessed are we to raise children in Torah!?

I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get back to this comment, but I'm pretty sure you'll see it!
You have such a similar story with the roles reversed! You're more like Ben and your husband is more like me.
My family had to leave a couple of churches. That is no fun at all.
But what a good anniversary! I remember we came to the hard and fast conclusion to keep the feasts right before Passover as well...and then we had no clue at all how to keep it. We're still figuring it out, but boy were we lost that first year...
Got it!! We're all on a journey Lauren. And I love hearing about each one's adventure
