Summary: Fairly dull, not incredibly believable either.
Review: A few years back I decided to convert to Judaism and decided to check into the Jews who went the other way and converted to Christianity. When I wrote to Sid Roth he sent me this book for free. He really never answered my questions. Most of the stories in here are the standard "I was evil and then I found Jesus" except they use that missionary name for Jesus. Most people don't know anything about Judaism so they aren't really leaving anything behind. A couple interesting examples in this are teh Holocaust survivor who wants to forgive the Nazis, the college professor who has a lot of archaelogical data that claims that the basic tenets of Judaism are not from G-d so much as 1st century Common Era culture (although he doesn't say why Christianity is any "truer" in his perspective) and teh Chasidic woman who was going to marry a Christian but he wouldn't renounce Jesus and then she became Christian instead. The last one seems fabricated though since what is a Chasidic even dating a Christian man much less trying to marry one. Not much interest to people who don't believe in Jesus or people who want to think about their Christian faith. It's ok for fundamentalist Christians who want to reconfirm what they've been raised or convinced to believe. But just don't hold your breath waiting for the rest of the Jews to follow suit.

Summary: Its Real!
Review: As I read the book, I could feel the Spirit of God inhabiting it. We have given these to several Jews, to show them that there are others out there, who have had the same questions about God and Messiah. Just about anyone can relate to at least one person mentioned in the Book. Isaiah 53 is kept from most Jews. And it is the simple message of their own Bible, that saves. And seeing others go through this process of enlightenment, makes it easier.

Summary: TRUE LIFE STORIES AND TESTIMONIES
Review: Sid Roth [a Messianic/Christian Jew] has compiled a
POWERFUL selection of testimonies that prove how many
Jews are now seeing "the Jewish side" of Jesus [Yeshua]
and relating this truth to their own lives. Many of these
people had what is nothing less than "a divine revelation"
from God that turned their former hostility to Jesus
to one of faith and love. I highly recommend this book to both
Jews and Gentiles because it gives a personal touch to the
ongoing controversy between Judaism, "Jewishness," and
the Messianic claims of Jesus. Don't miss these powerful
testimonies of God's grace.(!)
