About Me

Shalom! welcome to me! I'm 30, happily, wonderfully and ecstatically married to God's beshert (meant for) for me. I teach 2nd grade and love going to work almost every day. I am a Messianic believer and have been since my dramatic life turnaround at 17. I live to worship and serve the Lord, Yeshua (Jesus) HaMoshiach (the Anointed Messiah). I live also to empower youth and encourage them to take up the God-given calling and to take their relationship with Him seriously. I love to laugh, worship with drums and voice and write songs of praise. I am part of a Messianic worship band, HaShir (the Song) with my wife and dear brothers, D-Rock and Jason. I have served the YMJA for 10 years and must step out of that this year because I'm an old man. I love Torah and the entire Word of God and long to know more about the Word and the History of my Mishpocha. I enjoy people and love to help.There you go. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Sappy but true

So here's the deal.  I teach 2nd grade so I get the summers off.  I decided not to take anything extra on this summer so that I could spend time bonding with Shira over her first few months ...

Conference hook-ups...not always a bad thing

I know that you may find this shocking coming from a youth leader!  Especially if you know my rather hardcore stance on courtship/focused, cautious, open to Godly input dating rather than ambival...
