Welcome to Anointed for Christ, a ministry website offering Bible studies, Seminary Journey reflections, worship resources, and free Bible printables. These resources are designed to help individuals and families learn Scripture and pass God’s truth to the next generation.

I also received my syllabus from Manna University for Biblical Hebrew I, purchased the textbook and workbook, and I am looking forward to the class beginning on August 24, 2026. This month, one Hebrew word especially caught my attention: יְשׁוּעָה — yeshu’ah — salvation That word became the starting point for this month’s Seminary Journey reflection. 2. The Flashcard Moment As I was studying my Hebrew flashcards, I came across the word יְשׁוּעָה . Front of my Hebrew flashcard: יְשׁוּעָה (yeshuʿah), meaning “salvation.” I sounded it out slowly: Yeh-shoo-ah. Yeshu’ah. Then I thought, “I know that word. That sounds like Yeshua.”   I was already familiar with the name Y...
