{slide=Q: How is Sam Nadler qualified to teach on The Feasts of the Bible?}
Dr. Sam Nadler was raised in a Jewish orthodox home on Queens, New York. As he began looking at the Old Testament prophecies, they seemed to point to Jesus as the Messiah. He soon came to faith in Jesus and realized his Jewishness wasn't just some accident of nature, but that God had a plan and purpose. He is president of Word of Messiah Ministries but has also served as president of Chosen People Ministries and worked with Jews for Jesus. Sam has a passion for the Jews but also in helping gentiles understand the significance of their Jewish heritage and how it relates to Messiah Jesus.{/slide}

Endorsements

"Sam Nadler is one of today's most solid Messianic Jewish teachers. He brings fascinating insights without losing sight of major scriptural truths. He is doctrinally sound and yet calls for Christians to look afresh for new discoveries in the Word. And he demonstrates with undeniable clarity how the Feasts and Holy Days of Israel are of importance to the Church today, indeed, how they are ultimately witnesses to Yeshua the Messiah. If you are looking for practical, edifying, and enlightened teaching on this important topic, look no further."

"Dr. Sam Nadler is amazing! I was suddenly swept away by the magnificent symbolism and vibrant truths the feasts portray. His perspective as a Jewish believer brought up in a traditional [orthodox Jewish] home made the Old Testament Feasts come alive as never before. His insight and attention to detail is phenomenal. We could have guessed it was all about Jesus Christ? Compelling, enlightening, and powerful teaching!"

{slide=Q: What perspective does the DVD take on the relevance of the Feasts of the Bible today?}
The feasts are a clear sign of God's redemptive program for mankind. The six sessions start with Sabbath Rest, the beginning point in God's plan and how we are to relate to God the Father. The Sabbath is a public testimony of God's redemptive work. Likewise, the Passover points us toward the perfect sacrificial Lamb of God. In Pentecost we see God giving of the law and later giving of the Holy Spirit. The Feast of Trumpets, in part, points the way to the Kingship and sovereignty of God. Truth, not tradition, we are reminded is needed for the human soul. The Day of Atonement reminds us of our inability to save ourselves and the seriousness of sin which separates us from God. Finally, the Feast of Tabernacles shows us that God is looking to restore lost humanity. It is a time of great rejoicing and ingathering.
