Passover 2024

This week (April 26) on Shabbat Night Live, a few years ago, Michael Rood challenged the staff at A Rood Awakening to do the impossible — recreate the split rock at Horeb in the middle of a hotel ballroom, complete with lightning, thunder, and running water.

Well, we did it and on this episode, you get to witness how it came together and hear Michael Rood’s masterful storytelling of how that rock perfectly prophesied Yeshua’s salvation
