Shalom

Tonight I worshiped with my Jewish brothers and sisters in Christ—members of the Southern Baptist Messianic Fellowship. It was a wonderful way to begin my time at the annual Southern Baptist Convention being held in Indianapolis. They are a warm and welcoming group, and they have a passion for seeing nonbelievers come to Yeshua. 

The Shabbat service was a beautiful blend of Hebrew and English. With a theme of encouragement and strengthening of the saints, Rabbi Ric Worshill exhorted his audience to go out and make disciples. 

The SBMF is working with the North American Mission Board and LifeWay to produce evangelism training tools to help teach believers how to share the gospel with non-believing Jews.
