by Joe Brusherd (Author)
These 47 musings were selected to encourage appreciation, respect and study of the Torah (Pentateuch, first five books of the Bible) as the foundation for our Christian faith. More important, these views of His Torah explore its relationship to the New Testament. Like the old song - "Love and Marriage, you can't have one without the other." Yosef wants everyone to grow in understanding what our Loving Father God intended for His children. What was God's plan for us from the beginning? He gave us His Word to study and gave us His Holy Spirit to interpret His Word. Topics covered by these 47 bite size "Musings" include - What is the Torah, God's Feast Days, OT & NT Relationships, Treasures in the Hebrew Language and Foreshadowings. The Torah is much more than a book of Law. It is a Tree of Life and contains lessons to enrich our walk and our Christian faith. Are you ready to understand how our Loving Father God wants us to understand His Words to us? You will find these musings useful for preaching, leading Bible studies, and understanding God in a refreshing way. They are humorous, evangelistic, enlightening, testimonial and lovingly provocative...with points to ponder.
Author Biography
In 1977, Joe Brusherd (Yosef) fell to his knees and said "Jesus Christ, you are real! I need to learn more about you." Since then he attended every Bible study possible, studied in several Bible colleges, and taught Sunday schools in all churches of which he was a member. Joe led numerous men's ministries and Bible studies and developed (1) an in-depth survey of the Old Testament, his favorite topic; (2) outlines of Parashot, weekly Torah studies, and (3) "Our Hebraic Roots", a course curriculum for introduction to the Messianic fellowship. Joe was born again and baptized in the Holy Spirit in the Catholic Church and has since ministered in many distinctly different denominations: Assemblies of God, Filipino Assemblies of the First Born (licensed minister), Baptist, FourSquare and Messianic fellowships. As president of Business Men's Fellowship chapters in California and Belgium, Joe lead large monthly dinner meetings and a continuous schedule of weekly men's meetings worldwide. He has started and led men's ministries in three distinctly different denominations and his multidenominational background provides unique perspectives and insights.
