About the Actor
Steven Ger grew up in a Jewish family in Brooklyn, New York and Aberdeen, New Jersey, where he was educated in both church and synagogue due to his distinctive heritage as a Jewish Christian.

He is the founder and director of Sojourner Ministries, an organization dedicated to exploring the Jewish heart of Christianity. The name of the ministry is derived from the Hebrew meaning of Mr. Ger s surname. In Hebrew, the word ger means sojourner or wanderer. This particular "wandering Jew's" faith journey has led him to the conviction that Jesus is the Messiah who was foretold in the Hebrew Scriptures.

Steven s first book, the commentary Acts: Witness to the World, was released in 2005. He is also coauthor of The Popular Bible Prophecy Commentary (2007). He is the former host of the North Texas weekly radio show, The Jewish Heart of Christianity, and is uniquely equipped to comment on Israel, Judaism and the Church. He has appeared as a guest expert on both radio and television. As an accomplished singer, pianist and songwriter, television audiences and church congregations alike have enjoyed Steven s leading in invigorating, contemporary messianic worship.

Steven has led 12 tours to Israel, with extensions to Egypt, Greece, Jordan, Turkey and Germany. He has lectured at Dallas Theological Seminary and at Tyndale Seminary. He earned a BA in psychology and interpersonal communications from Trenton State College and a ThM from Dallas Theological Seminary.

Customer Reviews

Loved it! Great video to share for Pesach!
This was a very nice video walking you through the Passover seder, and explaining how it all forshadows the Messiah - Yeshua (Jesus). It is plain to see that He had to be the Messiah, and we now await His return. A must for all that consider themselves followers of Him. Open your eyes to the Jewish Messiah. And a must for all Jewish people.
