Yesterday our family celebrated Rosh Hashanah for the first time and we loved it. Rosh Hoshanah, the Feast of Trumpets is considered the Jewish New Year. For our family it also signified a time of remembrance of God’s blessings in our lives. I truly wish I had the opportunity that my children are having to celebrate and understand the significance the Jewish holidays.

As we prepare for Yom Kippur, I am truly amazed at how the Biblical Holidays are so interwoven and interconnected with our spiritual heritage. This season is a time of reflection, contemplation, and putting things in order and getting right our relationship with God. We see celebrating the Biblical Holidays as a great way to pass our faith to our children and teach them about the nature of God and our responsibility as His children.

A couple of months ago we featured A Family Guide to the Biblical Holidays. This 585 page book is a great resources for understanding the Biblical Holidays from a Christian perspective. It even included a special Homeschool curriculum unit study. If you are interested in learning more about Biblical Holidays, click here!
