Israel Nelson Interview

Israel has been involved in the Messianic movement since he was 5 years old. His father was a Messianic Rabbi in Long Island and Queens, NY.  He was Bar Mitzvah at 13. The Nelson family moved to the Galilee when Israel was 16 during the first Iraq war. They became a part of the local body there which is considered to be the largest indigenous Israeli congregation in Israel. When he turned 18 he began working at Galtronics, a company founded to employee believers and Israelis in Tiberias. They became the largest private employer in the city through many miracles and in spite of much persecution. Israel met his wife, Cindy, in Tiberias through a set of miraculous circumstances and they've been married for 15 years and have 8 children and 1 on the way. In 2007 they left Israel and were not allowed to return because of problems with their visa. At that time the Nelsons relocated to Phoenix, Arizona where Galtronics had its US headquarters. In 2009 the Lord told Israel to fast and seek Him. During that time God said he was going to leave Galtronics and move into full-time ministry. In 2010 Israel became the Executive Pastor of Bethel Church in Phoenix. Their mission is to plant 10 churches by the year 2020 in the Phoenix area. Israel also stays connected with various Messianic Ministries.  He will be travelling to Israel on Sunday, June 2, and it will be the first time back since 2009. Israel says "I've been so blessed to see how God has kept us so connected with the Land and His people!"   Great music...and great interview!

Renate Kaufmann Interview

This interview originally aired in April, 1999.  Renate grew up in Cologne, Germany. Hidden as a child, Renate survived the Holocaust.   Renate shares her surprise when she learned that she was Jewish, the tragedy of her father's death and the faith that he taught her.  This faith carried her through many tough times.  Through Yeshua, Renate learned to forgive those that harmed her father.   A poet, artist and former seamstress, Renate wrote about her experience during the Holocaust in her book, "Justify Us Through Your Life."  She also published a book of her poems called "I Survived the Holocaust." She currently resides in Israel, although originally she was denied citizenship by the Israeli government because of her belief in Yeshua as Messiah.  Her court case was handled by the Jerusalem Institute for Justice.  Renate has now been granted permanent residency in Israel.   Pray for her as she adjusts to living in the land of our forefathers!

Mark David Smith Interview

Mark David Smith is the producer of LAMB Messianic Radio.  He was born to a non-practicing Jewish father and a Baptist mother and was raised in the Baptist faith.  He used to be a "Hell Fire and Damnation" preacher and he decided to visit Israel so he could walk where Jesus walked.  While there, he met a cantor on the tour from a Messianic congregation in Fort Worth, Texas who questioned Mark on his doctrine.  This was a turning point in his life, when he "flipped" to Messianic Judaism.

An author and worship leader, Mark has a passion for communication. When he was fourteen years old, he boldly went to the owner of a local radio station and told him he wanted his own radio show on his station. The station manager gave it to him. It lasted for three and a half years. Mark has been behind the scenes and in front of people since that day. Thirty six out of fifty eight years of his life he has served God.  Lamb Radio was launched September 4, 2012.  

Enjoy the music of Paul Wilbur, Sue Samuel, Zemer Levav, The Schleps and Daniel Kopp/Sarah Liberman!
