Engaging the Past: How Constantine and the Church Fathers Shaped Christian Doctrine with Angie Sickler

Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity! My guest today is Angie Sickler! Host Stephanie Pavlantos welcomes returning guest Angie Sickler, author of The Father’s Love Language, to discuss how Hebrew words and letters carry fuller meanings than English translations and how studying them deepens understanding of Scripture, including examples from Isaiah 11, Noah and grace, and word families connecting encampment with grace, mercy, and training. They emphasize seeking intimacy with God rather than treating faith as mere Sunday routine, warning about deception and the need to “know” Jesus. The conversation explores how Christianity became disconnected from Hebrew foundations, describing early Jewish-Gentile tensions, Peter’s Acts 10 vision, and later developments under Constantine, including anti-Jewish policies, the Council of Nicaea, and replacing Passover observance with Easter. They argue the biblical “feasts of the Lord” remain prophetic and relevant, citing Tabernacles in the millennium and ongoing Sabbath worship.
