About
The Author
Jim Gerrish received his Master
of Divinity degree from
Southern
Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky
(US),
and served as pastor of
several churches
before the Lord
called him to Israel.
After this call, he
and his wife Betsy lived in Israel
as
Christian workers.
For most of his
fourteen-year stay in Israel, Jim was
associated with the evangelical
Christian ministry,
Bridges
For
Peace.
In the land,
Jim gained a wealth
of information and
experience. For
many years he directed
Christian
programs for Bridges,
welcoming
and caring for new immigrants
arriving in Israel. For the last four
years of his stay, he and his wife
also
directed the Galilee Study
Center at
Migdal, near Tiberias.
Throughout his
time in Israel Jim
did a great deal of
editorial work
with Bridges For
Peace,
while at the
same time originating
numerous
teaching articles on Israel and
the Church. Many of his articles have
been translated into various languages,
republished in periodicals and
distributed through the Internet.
From
all his experience Jim has produced one
comprehensive, full-sized book entitled
"Does God Play Favorites". In
addition he has produced several E-books
that are available free on this website.
Jim and his
wife have recently returned to Israel
for another period of service in God's
vineyard.
