Shalam Family! My name is Christian Zanders and I grew up in a Christian house hold and received Christ as my Savior in 2000. I studied and was ordained as a minister in the Church of God in Christ (C.O.G.I.C.)in2006 and served as such until my awakening  to my Israelite heritage in 2019. I began slowly to learn about the differences of Christianity and the Hebrew faith and began first to follow Ron Charles of “Truth Unedited”. While searching for confirmation of some things he was teaching I found Prophecy Ministries and watch some of the videos on YouTube. The clear and scriptural teachings drew me in and I began watching faithfully every time a video was posted! I have learned so much and I am continuing to grow and unlearn the errors that I believed when I was a Christian. I look forward to connecting with all of my new family and building relationships with like-minded Israelites! I live in the Chicagoland area and it is hard to connect with other Israelites in my area. I am learning a great deal here and I hope you all don’t mind me reaching out for understanding on some things of the Hebrew faith. My mind is being renewed daily by the teachings of Prophecy Ministries! Shalam Family!
