Ben & Liz Cassutto Interview

My dear friend Benjamin Cassutto went home to be with the Lord on October 19, 2012.  This program is dedicated to his memory.  Ben collected the memoirs of his father, Ernest Cassutto and published them in a book called "The Last Jew of Rotterdam."   The book reveals the struggles of his Dutch-Jewish parents during the Holocaust and shares their faith as believers in Yeshua.  It is a story of love, faith and forgiveness.  I had the privilege of interviewing Ben & his wife Liz at the Messiah Conference in 2002.  You will be inspired and encouraged as you hear their story.   I encourage you to get the book "The Last Jew of Rotterdam."   For more info please go to http://www.lightbeaconministries.com/partners.html.

Lora Merlo Interview

Lora Merlo is a member of Congregation B'rith Hadoshah in Buffalo, New York.  In this program she shares her calling as a non-Jewish believer who has fully embraced the Messianic movement. Her sweet and tender words will encourage you as she shares what drew her as a Gentile to the Messianic movement and what inspires her deep love for Israel and the Jewish people. This show will inspire both Jewish and non-Jewish believers as Lora speaks from her heart about her personal relationship through Yeshua which has connected or grafted her into the Messianic movement.   You'll love the music too.   Such a deal!

Rick Fisher Interview

Another wonderful program with great music.   You'll enjoy the music of Chuck King, Deborah Kline Iantorno, Daniel Kopp & Sarah Liberman, Carlos Perdomo and Greg Silverman.

This interview was held in July while attending the Messiah Conference.  Rick Fisher is a 65 yr old man that was raised in a Jewish home, attended Hebrew School, was Bar Mitzvah and.did a year towards confirmation before he got tired of all of it because it was curtailing his social life. Rick did not begin actively searching for G-d until his early 40s. He found Yeshua and for the last 22 years, he has been privileged to serve Him as a worship leader in Davidic dance (among other things) at Congregation Beth Yeshua in Philadelphia. Rick found  new life in Him and is eternally grateful.
