We chatted a bit about how Messianic tunes have changed over the years. You'll love it! Thanks so much for listening!

What a joy to speak with the amazing Suzy Linett again! Here's some info about our gal Suzy:
Suzy Linett was born into a Jewish family and attended local synagogues as she pursued her education and obtained a degree in occupational therapy from the University of Southern California. She continues to work in that field providing services for children with special needs. Through evangelical friends, she accepted her Messiah and Lord in 1981.
Ms. Linett pursued her Bible education in her local church
and through online studies. She became
an active member of a Messianic Jewish Synagogue in 1994 and was involved in
leadership and teaching until that congregation dissolved. In 2009, she joined Calvary Faith Center
Foursquare Church in Rancho Cucamonga, CA, obtaining her ministerial license in
2012 and ordination in 2014.
Currently, she serves on staff as a teacher at that church
and is also is the leader of Kehilat Emunah, a Messianic ministry designed to
bring Jewish and Gentile believers together in understanding of the whole Word
of GOD. Ms. Linett is the author of
Mattityahu-Gift from God, a study of the Gospel of Matthew from a Hebraic
perspective, and God is in the Waiting, a devotional about seeking the Lord’s
guidance during times of difficulty. She
a speaker at churches and Messianic Synagogues.
Today we will discuss her new book, “Unity of the Faith, Finding Harmony between Jewish and Gentile Believers by Examining Eight Key Topics.
A friend handed me a book and said "I think you'll like this!" It was "Prepare a Room," by Michelle Shelfer. My friend was right, I thoroughly enjoyed the book!
Michelle Shelfer lives with her husband of thirty-eight years in Northern California and loves to tend to her six chickens and eleven grandchildren. She provides musical leadership at her place of worship and is currently managing editor at Nordskog Publishing Inc.
Michelle was raised in a secular Jewish family in San Francisco. She was the child of bohemian artist parents, one of whom escaped the Holocaust. Michelle studied the arts, gaining a Masters degree in Motion Picture Animation from UCLA and going on to work in the field of educational software. She has produced award-winning, internationally screened animations and has released four musical recordings of her original compositions.
Michelle seeks to see the many men and women hurt by abortion healed and restored. She brings her own personal experience with abortion—with compassion, insight, and practical guidance—in the hopes that those who have been hurt will find relief and new life.
Enjoy her story and some fantastic music!
This delightful young lady loves Yeshua and is a talented artist. It was a privilege to talk with her and learn how she became involved in Messianic Judaism.
In her own words:
Hi! My name is Jessica Hultquist, and I am from Mobile, Alabama. I currently work as a Graduate Assistant and a PhD student in Instructional Design and Development at the University of South Alabama. I enjoy creating art pieces, especially with oil pastels and acrylic paint. When God gives me a dream or a vision, the strokes from my brush/pastels flow from my hands to the paper/canvas. In my spare time, I enjoy dancing at synagogue and operating the screens for the tech crew at church. You can find me on Facebook at Jessica Hultquist and on Instagram at jessicahultquistart.
Enjoy!
