Who Are You?: Messianic Judaism
http://mtepp.blogspot.com/2009/04/messianic-judaism.html
An unique exploration into the life and times. Tuesday, April 14, 2009. When I was young, I've always thought the concept for Jews for Jesus was absurd and nonexistant.

I feel like we've explored so much of the contemporary Jewish Identity, but at the same time, there is still so much left to do. With any major topic as broad as say,.
