Listen here:
So you heard Jack Wasson's story, how he came to know and love the Liberman family and how he sat down with Paul Liberman to record his life story - and how the 1st of those recorded interviews ended up in a book called "Don't Call Me Christian." Well, on today's program I had the privilege to speak with Paul Liberman himself, and heard him share a bit about his journey to finding Messiah.
Paul Liberman began his search for the Messiah when he was only 8 years
old. This was when he began to ask deeper questions about God.
After
finishing his education, his religion became making money. While
studying at a liberal university, he began to doubt there was a higher
Being. Shortly after landing a high-powered job in an office complex in
Washington, D.C., he was let go after the person that hired him was also
fired.
In this uncertainty, Paul was worried about the future.
Looking for work he used public transport a lot. On the bus, he
regularly saw a lawyer who was always reading his Bible. One day they
got to talk with each other. Paul told him that he thought that the
course of events in life sometimes is so unusual that it looks like
everything has been programmed. "There must be a programmer," Paul said.
The guy knew that Paul was Jewish because of his Jewish name, so the
guy showed him the prophecies in the Old Testament that point towards
the new state Israel. Paul was very interested in this, so on further
journeys he always sat down next to him.
After reading the New
Testament, Paul couldn't understand why the Jews had so little respect
for Jesus. He didn't do anything other than helping people. Could He
really be the Messiah, as He said Himself? Paul prayed, "If you are
really God, show me if the "carpenter of Nazareth" is the Messiah."
After
both Paul and his wife accepted Yeshua another problem arose. How were
they to raise their family? Concerned about the unity in their family,
He started to speak with other Jewish believers about the founding of a
New Testament church in their own Jewish style. They were motivated and
held their first gathering on May 18th, 1973. They invited a Jewish
evangelist and later got a Jewish pastor for the small group.
Plus some incredible music. I know you'll love it!

Melissa Moskowitz Interview
Melissa Moskowitz is a dear friend and a strong believer in Yeshua. I was honored to speak with her a few days ago. Here is some info about her:
Melissa Moskowitz has been a part of Jews for Jesus since 1975. She was born and raised in the Bronx and came to believe in Yeshua while in college. She moved to Brooklyn with her husband Jhan (the late North American Director of Jews for Jesus) when the branch opened in January 2007. Throughout her 36 years of service with the ministry she's had the opportunity to use her giftings in youth and young adult work, publications, photography and for the past 13 years in young adult ministry. Now from their 108-year old Victorian home in the Flatbush area of Brooklyn, Melissa holds Shabbat fellowships for young adult students and professionals, as well as other events which include food, fellowship and the Word.
You'll enjoy some great music too -- Joel Chernoff, Sue Samuel, Lamb, Jonathan Settel, Corry Bell & Lev Shelo and Ted Pearce!
