Best-selling author Lois Tverberg joins me on today’s podcast. She has authored many books including Sitting at the Feet of Rabbi Jesus, Reading the Bible with Rabbi Jesus, and Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus.
Lois Tverberg has been speaking and writing about the Jewish background of Christianity for the past twenty years. Her passion is translating the Bible’s ancient setting into fresh insights that deepen and strengthen the Christian faith. Lois grew up with plenty of Sunday school knowledge. Still, it wasn’t until after she had earned a Ph.D. in biology and was teaching as a college professor that a seminar at her church ignited her fascination for biblical study. She has since studied several times in Israel, taking courses in biblical Hebrew, Koine Greek, and the physical and cultural context of the Bible.
Gena and I had a great time on my podcast talking about how she came to learn the Jewish Roots of Christianity and so much more!
Gena is first a Christ-follower and a Bible student of many decades. She is also a wife and mother of two young adult sons. Gena writes this expository Christian blog to share what she learns in her own personal devotions. She writes for her own learning, and the edification of her readers, but most importantly, for the glory of God. https://resplendentdaughter.blogspot.com/
The vision and mission of the Besorah Institute are to help increase understanding among the members of the Body of Christ (The Church) of their Jewish roots, to train individuals for lay ministry to share the Gospel message with non-believers from a Judaic-Christian perspective, and to add to the literature on Biblical research.
David Stern, in his Complete Jewish Bible, translates this phrase from Romans 1:16, “to the Jew especially, but equally to the Gentile.” The Good News is offered “equally” to Gentiles; thus, it is “also” for the Gentiles (NASB). (Messianic Foundations, Dr. Sam Nadler, pg 24)
My guest today is Dr. Sam Nadler.
He is the president and founder of Word of Messiah Ministries. Sam is a Jewish believer in Jesus, and over his forty years in Messianic ministry, he has focused on raising leaders who plant congregations and make disciples of Yeshua (Jesus).
