Faith Was Never Meant to Feel Disconnected
Many Christians feel a deep pull toward the world Jesus lived in—yet it often feels distant, like a beautiful story from long ago that doesn't quite connect to real life.
The truth is, most believers were never taught the cultural rhythms, calendar, and customs Jesus lived by. Without that context, faith can feel abstract. If you've ever felt that tension, you're not alone.
That's why Simka exists: to guide you back to the joy of Jesus' customs and calendar—so your faith feels vibrantly alive with fresh clarity, purpose, and connection today.
How it Works: Three Simple Steps
"Simka has completely transformed how I read the Bible. Jesus feels closer than ever."
—Sarah M.
Imagine a Faith that Feels Alive Again
Imagine opening Scripture with clarity instead of confusion.
Marking time the way Jesus did. Feeling grounded in something ancient—and deeply relevant.
This isn’t about adding more to your life. It’s about returning to the ancient path that was there all along.
