As an Orthodox Jew, Yoel Ben David was challenged to study the Old Testament in addition to the Talmud — this led to questions and more questions. By the time he got to Isaiah 53, all bets were off. It didn’t take long for him to meet Jesus.
Today, Yoel serves as the training director for Jews for Jesus in Israel. On today’s episode of the Great Stories Podcast, you’ll hear how prayer, patience, and God’s Word can change the course of someone’s life. Recorded in 2015 shortly after terrorists killed 130 people and wounded 494 in Paris, Charles Morris also speaks to Yoel about how Christians and Jews respond to extremist groups like ISIS.
