Jessica and I talk about spiritual warfare, prayer, and understanding our authority in Christ.
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, 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.

Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity! My guest today is Simonette Cherepanov.

Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity. Today’s guest is Dena Smiley, a seasoned professional whose journey encompasses social work, faith, and service.
Dena began her professional odyssey upon earning a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Denver in 1998. With a passion for helping others, she obtained her clinical license in 2000. She delved into psychiatric care, serving in both inpatient settings and within the reputable Kaiser Permanente outpatient mental health clinic.
Transitioning her focus towards the educational domain, Dena found fulfillment in partnering with children and families navigating diverse special needs. Her expertise blossomed as she assumed the role of a district-wide coach for positive behavior support, leaving an indelible mark on the school social work landscape.
The arrival of her own family in 2006 prompted Dena to establish a private practice, allowing her to harmonize professional endeavors with the joys of motherhood. Complementing her professional pursuits, Dena generously volunteered in church counseling ministries and shared the transformative practice of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) at women’s events and bible studies.
Dena’s spiritual journey, spanning three decades, has been a transformative force in her life, igniting a genuine desire to utilize her God-given gifts for the betterment of humanity. Driven by compassion, she has embarked on numerous international missions, advocating for the marginalized and underserved in third-world countries.
In recent years, Dena’s faith journey has deepened as she and her family embraced the restored Hebrew names, observed biblical feasts, and honored the original Sabbath. Amidst her professional and spiritual commitments, Dena finds solace in nature, indulging in hobbies such as hiking, paddle boarding, and herbalism. Alongside her family, she has cultivated a serene homestead in East Tennessee, where they embrace the joys of homeschooling and cherish the bonds of family and community.
Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity! Today, I am delighted to introduce my special guest Rebecca Smith.
Rebecca, alongside her husband Ron, is the co-founder of Scholar Ministries. They have been involved in the leadership areas of the Worship Team, Children’s Choir, Royal Rangers, Youth Ministry, Tech Ministry, and Adult Bible Study.
Their relational ministry has influenced many families as they teach scholars of all ages from all walks of faith…Jewish, Messianic, and Christian. When Yeshua/Jesus called them to move to Northwest Arkansas, they struggled with leaving their hometown and, even more difficult still, their home church. However, when they chose to follow the design of their Abba, their Father, they began to feel God’s Shalom (peace) amid each battle that eventually birthed Scholar Ministries. Now the organization is thriving in both committed persons and passionate services providing instruction in Hebrew language and culture as well as acting as a resource for pastors.
Her commitment to excellence in worship extends beyond theory, as she embarked on intensive training in worship photography in 2015.
Rebecca’s intellectual pursuits go beyond the realms of theology. With a degree in Landscape Architecture, she founded a design firm in 1992, which has thrived under her guidance.
In partnership, Rebecca has shared the journey of marriage with Ron Smith for over thirty-six years. Described as a walking, talking encyclopedia of biblical proportions, Ron’s wealth of knowledge undoubtedly enriches their shared ministry.
Join us in welcoming Rebecca as she shares insights into her fascinating journey on Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity.
