Rich Freeman Interview

Another great testimony on today's show!   Dr. Richard Freeman of Chosen People Ministries shares his testimony!

Richard Freeman was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York into a very traditionally Jewish, though not religious, family. He did, however, receive religious training for five years in a conservative synagogue and received his Bar Mitzvah at age thirteen. Following that experience, though staunchly Jewish nationalistically, he drifted away from the synagogue and attended only on the special Jewish holidays.

In 1973 Rich married Julia DeBellis who was from an Italian Catholic background. It was primarily through Julia’s spiritual pilgrimage that God reached Rich. But first Rich met a born-again Christian, his supervisor at work. Though Rich responded angrily at first to this man's sharing his faith, his life was a wonderful testimony of the peace and joy that comes to those who put their faith and trust in the Lord. The joy in his life made Rich jealous and opened his heart to what was to come.

In August 1982, Julia accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior and immediately began praying for her husband!s salvation. In January 1983, God answered that prayer. Through the ministry of Chosen People Ministries, Rich heard and responded to the Gospel message and accepted Yeshua as his Lord and Savior. Immediately, God gave him a hunger to know Him and His Word intimately. He immersed himself in the Bible and was discipled by his pastor. In the summer of 1987 Rich and Julia responded to God's call and moved to Dallas, Texas where Rich attended Dallas Theological Seminary. While in Dallas, Rich worked as a missionary with Chosen People Ministries. Before finishing the degree program at Dallas, Rich was called to pastor the congregation where he was saved, Light of Israel Messianic Congregation. He became pastor of that congregation in December 1989. In April 1994, Rich also became pastor of Dunwoodie Baptist Church in Yonkers, New York, which is where Light of Israel’s services were held. So, for five years of his ten- year pastorate he enjoyed the unique challenge of pastoring two congregations.
 

Rich and Julia have three children, Heather, Brian and Joel. They also have two grandsons, Cody and Carrington. On July 1, 1999 Rich assumed his position as Vice-President and Director of Church Ministries and Conferences for Chosen People Ministries. Rich works with churches throughout the country and abroad. Rich teaches Bible Conferences on various topics such as Jewish Evangelism, Messianic Prophecy, End-Time Prophecy, The Church and Israel, The Feasts of Israel, and much more. He also ministers to local churches in Florida where he and his family reside. Rich finished his studies begun in Dallas, at Conservative Baptist Seminary of the East, where he received his M.Div., in September 1994. Rich received his D.Min. at Gordon-Conwell Seminary in 2004.

You will also enjoy the music of Jonathan Settel, Ted Pearce, The Schleps, Joshua Aaron, Greg Silverman and Natasha Kraus-Reynolds.

Natasha Kraus-Reynolds & Tamrah Alexander Interview

Today I was surprised to have not one but two wonderful musicians on the phone with me!   I had the pleasure of speaking with Natasha Kraus-Reynolds and Tamrah Alexander.   Here is some background on Natasha:

Natasha was born and raised in the small Latin American country of Panama, to upper middle class parents of Jewish ancestry. Faith and music were always a big focus in her home. As a young adult, Natasha rediscovered her faith as a Messianic Jewish believer in Yeshua.
As her faith journey continued, she began to trust God as she was able to better understand how the Creator of the Universe loves us so greatly that he keeps all of His words and all of His promises from old. It was amazing for her to see that He knew from the beginning how His plan of redemption to the world would be carried out by means of our Jewish Messiah, as it is written in the Tanakh, the book of the prophet Isaiah, Chapter 59 verse 20 and expounded in Romans 11.
Her background has influenced the sound and languages of the songs you will hear, mixing together alternative rock, classical, Middle Eastern, Sephardic and Latin music and the English, Spanish and Hebrew languages. Through this music, she hopes that lives would be moved, people would turn to the one true God, the God of Israel, and that many would be changed by the liberating power of the Most High to live as "B'nei HaOr" or "children of the light," as written in Ephesians 5:8-10."
Even though having a degree in industrial engineering set the tone for her professional career path, music for Adonai has always been a subject of great importance in her life. For more information, visit www.NatashaKraus-Reynolds.com.

Today's show features songs written by Natasha and produced by Tamrah Alexander.   Enjoy!
