Sam Nadler / November 19th
After coming to faith in Yeshua on January 10, 1972, God gave Sam Nadler a great burden to share Messiah with other Jewish people. Over the years, Sam, and his wife Miriam, served with Jews for Jesus, both traveling the country with the evangelistic music group called the “Liberated Wailing Wall,” and establishing the New York City branch of that ministry. He also served with Chosen People Ministry as president.
The more he studied the Word of God, the more Sam developed a greater burden to not only evangelize, but to disciple Jewish believers in light of their Jewish identity. Sam says that it is through discipleship that we proclaim God’s faithfulness to the Jewish people and to all people in Yeshua.
In 1996, Sam and Miriam established Word of Messiah Ministries to globally establish, develop and reproduce Messianic congregations those that are develop, and to train and support Messianic leaders and their wives in their vital work around the world. They also equip the greater Body of Messiah in their call to Jewish ministry.
Through these seasons of ministry, Sam has traveled throughout Israel, Germany, South America, Canada, and the United States planting, assisting and encouraging Messianic congregations and was privileged to witness revival among Jewish people in the former Soviet Union.
Sam has both planted numerous congregations over the years, and he has served as mentor to hundreds of Messianic congregation leaders who want biblical direction on “how to begin or begin again” as they serve their communities.
He also conducts seminars both online and in person. His “Messianic Marriage Matters” conference, as well as the “Developing Healthy Messianic Congregations” conferences are grounded in scripture and are very helpful and a blessing to all who attend.
Sam is also a prolific author. We’ve interviewed him about his last two books—Messiah in the End Times, and Messiah’s Seven Congregations and we’re looking forward to his next book, The Messianic Ten Commandments, which is about to be published! God has certainly gifted Sam in communicating the biblical text. We appreciate that Sam always encourages us with the “how” of implementation of God’s Word.
