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 sixteen-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 several years of his stay, he and his wife  also founded and 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 FavoritesIn addition he has produced several E-books that are available free on this website.
     Jim and his wife have recently returned to the US from a two-year stay in Israel.
