I'd be into that. She's going through a bit of a personal crisis right now and is angry with God because of an injury that has affected her career and life. I'll have to wait for things to settle and see how it goes. The messianic church we go to is pastored by an Egyptian Jew named Eli and they celebrate the Jewish festivals and keep Kosher. I'm very interested in Jewish history and know quite a bit about it. We've actually tossed around the idea of moving to Israel when I finish my IT program. At the very least, I'd like to take a long trip there. In any case, I consider myself a wild olive branch grafted into the domesticated olive tree of Israel as the Apostle Paul said in Romans.
I know a lot of Jews fear losing their identity to Christianity, but I actually think that authentic Christianity that was practiced in the first century makes Gentiles more Jewish in outlook. Many of the great things about Judaism were transplanted into Europe like humanitarianism and ethics and eventually made there way into America.
