 Dan is a Jew who believes Yeshua is the Jewish Messiah. He is the eldest son raised in a Conservative Jewish family. His father was the Ba’al Tekiah for 35 years in the synagogue where Dan was Bar Mitzvah. His grandfather was also a Ba’al Tekiah.
For most of Dan’s life, he had an intellectual relationship with G-d. Then through a series of profound events, Dan heard the call of the Jewish Messiah to follow Him. Like so many of the early Jewish believers before him, Dan began his journey with Yeshua and has never looked back. His passion for Israel and the Jewish people is evidenced by the many articles and letters he has written to magazines, newspapers and politicians, standing up for the right of Israel and the Jewish people to exist and live within secure, recognized borders. Many of these have been published in both local and international newspapers. Dan is a strong and articulate voice for Israel and the Jewish people. He has visited Israel many times, and much of his family resides there.

Both Dan and Debbie have a heart for Israel and the Jewish people. In many ways their relationship parallels the story of Ruth and Boaz, and the allegorical picture throughout the story that unfolds when Gentile and Jew reciprocally bless one another. Once G-d brought Dan and Debbie together it became clear He was calling them to share the Hebraic roots of Christianity with Gentile believers, and to extend a hand of friendship to further develop unity and reconciliation between Jews and Christians. Their vision is to promote “one new man in Yeshua/Christ” [Ephesians 2 : 15], thus bringing the outpouring of G-d’s spirit upon all. Together she and Dan are currently leading Bible studies in their home.
