Pastor Troy Brewer Explores the Prophetic Meaning of Hebrew Year 5785
As the Jewish High Holidays, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, open this week, Pastor Troy Brewer recently discussed the prophetic significance of the Hebrew calendar year 5785. Speaking from his church in Burleson, Texas, Brewer believes this year holds specific and significant meaning for both individual believers and the broader body of Christ, calling it a season marked by grace, redemption and transformation.
Brewer begins by explaining the importance of understanding the Hebrew calendar. He contrasts it with the Gregorian calendar, highlighting how God speaks differently to the nations and His covenant people through celestial markers like the sun and the moon.
“The sun is always biblically seen as masculine, the moon is always biblically seen as feminine,” Brewer says, pointing to the lunar cycle’s connection to biblical timing.

Gen Z Study: Young Men Are Getting Serious About Faith
Three weeks ago I led a men’s discipleship event at a church in suburban Chicago. Some of the guys traveled from as far away as Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Washington to attend the conference. Men of all ages were there, but a large percentage of the guys were 20-somethings. The young man who led the worship that weekend is only 21.
On the second night, many men ran to the stage to receive prayer for the baptism of the Holy Spirit. One of the youngest guys who responded was Jason Vitorsky, a 12-year-old from Missouri. Another guy, Giuseppe Battaglia from Ohio, is 15. Both of them were excited to tell me the next morning that they had been filled with the Spirit at the altar.
All the men spent three days worshipping, sharing meals, listening to sermons and sharing their hearts in small groups. When the event was over on Saturday, nobody wanted to leave.
