ABOUT GREG'S MINISTRIES
Shalom Friend,
Welcome! I am so glad that you stopped by for a visit. God is doing such amazing things through the salvation of His Jewish people during this end-time revival. We are living in the time when God's Word in Romans 11:26 is truly coming to pass that "all Israel shall be saved."
I am the President of Watchman Music, which is my Messianic Jewish and Gospel music ministry (my name, "Gregory," means "Watchman"). I am also a full-time minister for Kesher Ministries International. Kesher Ministries International has been bringing the Good News of the Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) to our Jewish people for over thirty years. Under the leadership of David Chernoff, we have seen thousands of Jewish people accept Yeshua as their personal Messiah. In addition, we make "kesher" ("connections") with the Church by teaching the Jewish roots of the faith and helping the Church connect with the Messianic Jewish revival.
I look forward to hearing from you and scheduling a time when I may come and minister to your congregation.
In Yeshua's Love,
Greg Silverman

DRY BONES, LIVE!
Greg Silverman brings the Message of Yeshua the Messiah
(Jesus the Christ) to both Jew and Gentile Believers through his anointed
Messianic Jewish and Gospel Music as well as powerful Messianic Teachings of God's Word regarding the Jewish roots of the faith. Greg's love and enthusiasm for the Messiah Yeshua and for God's people are evident in every teaching, concert, choral workshop, and speaking presentation he gives.
Greg's father is a Russian-Polish Jew and his mother is Italian-Christian. Greg gained an interesting perspective on both Christianity and Judaism from growing up in an interfaith home. Greg remembers accepting Yeshua at an altar call while visiting his "Nan's" (grandmother's) church at eight years of age. Praise the LORD for a praying grandmother! As a teenager and college student he attended a wide variety of churches with his mother and grandmother. Greg also gained a proficiency in gospel piano and singing during these years in the churches. By the time he graduated from college (at the University of Massachusetts with a B.A. in both Vocal Jazz & Gospel Music as well as Psychology), Greg had one foot with the LORD but the other in worldly living. On the one hand, he worked as a music minister in churches, but on the other he was struggling with hindering sin in his own personal life. In Spring 2000, things began to change towards God's ways. Greg was hired as an assistant music director to well-known gospel musician, Ron Metcalf, in New York City. Ron did more than just make use of Greg's musical gifts and talents; he took Greg under his wing spiritually by praying for and counseling him. Ron encouraged him to seek out the Jewish people who knew Jesus. Little did Greg know that there even was a Messianic Jewish movement, let alone that God would one day call he and his household into full time Messianic Jewish ministry. Within a year, Greg had rededicated his life to the LORD at his mother's church. Immediately, God gave Greg a fresh start and he began really serving Yeshua wholeheartedly.
In 2001, while studying classical choral conducting at Temple University, Greg was invited by a friend to visit Congregation Beth Yeshua, one of the foundational Messianic synagogues in the United States. From the moment he arrived, he felt spiritually as though he had "come home." During that first time at Beth Yeshua, the synagogue was particularly packed due to the special concert that night. When the guest artist was announced, Greg had a flash back and realized that he had seen this artist on a video that his Nan had sent him several years prior. Although uninterested at the time, watching that video had impacted him, and it was very possibly the first time that Greg had seen a Messianic Jewish musician. So, Greg was overwhelmed to realize that his first time in Beth Yeshua was actually a concert of the same Marty Goetz that was in the video. What a "God-incidince!" Within a year of joining the synagogue, he met his beautiful wife, Rosa, who had been in the congregation for several years prior to Greg's arrival. Greg and Rosa have joyfully become a quartet with the arrival of their sons, Judah Sean and Benjamin Gregory.
Greg joined Kesher Ministries International full time in 2004 bringing the Good News of the Messiah to both Jew and Gentile at his home congregation, as well as sharing the Messianic music & message to churches. Greg released his first full-length album of original Messianic Jewish Music entitled DRY BONES in 2004 and his most recent release, REVIVE, in 2007. Greg has sung and played concerts and feature presentations of his original Scripture-songs annually at the MJAA National Messiah Conferences since 2002. Greg also directs the youth worship teams at Beth Yeshua, SELAH and Call to Praise. Greg gladly looks forward to bringing a blessing of God's Word and music to you.

What is Kesher Ministries International?
"Kesher" in Hebrew means "connection." It is KMI's calling to "connect" Jewish people to their Messiah Yeshua (Jesus), to help Believers understand the prophetic significance of Israel today, and to connect the Church to its Jewish roots. Kesher Ministries exists to REACH out to the Church, to motivate them toward a LOVE RELATIONSHIP with the God of Israel through Davidic Praise and Worship, to form "KESHER"-"CONNECTIONS" between the Messianic Jewish community and the Church community & STRENGTHEN their understanding of the Jewish roots of the faith, & to SERVE God by serving Jew & Gentile, one in the Messiah.
It is so important for the Messianic Jewish Believers and the Gentile Church to become increasingly connected to each other during this end time revival that we are living in. To learn more, please visit www.kesherministries.org.
