This all began in 2005, when I started a small Bible study in an
abandoned synagogue in Saint Francisville, Louisiana after nearly 2
decades of study. I called this Bible Study - Roots of Faith.
The Roots of Faith congregation is a group of people that have come
together for the purpose of searching for the “good Way”
among the ancient paths(Jeremiah 6:16). We come from
different places and may not agree when it comes to our beliefs. We
are however, respectful of one another and believe that truth is
reached by honest dialogue and proven by the teachings found within
the pages of the Hebrew Bible.
Over the past several years we have grown. Most of the growth
however has been global and not local. We have found that
the internet allows us to link up with people from literally around
the world who are on the same path. The local congregation is now
opening its fellowship to the world via the internet in what we
call the “Synagogue Without Walls”. This has led to the
creation of a cyber community with members who are literally from
all over the world.
There is no charter, or approved “Articles of Faith”. There
is no formal process required to “join” our fellowship. The
Synagogue Without Walls is intended to be a place of meeting
for anyone that believes in the One God of Israel and seeks
to live according to the principles of the Hebrew Bible.
In my Quest for the true Biblical Faith, I repeatedly meet people
from all over with similar stories. Most of us have felt that we
were all alone at times. The more Hebraic we become in our
orientation, the less we fit in with those around us. With the
emerging Hebrew Roots movement, many feel that something incredible
is taking place. God is awakening his people - "One from a
city, two from a family" as the prophet Jeremiah put it
(Jeremiah 3:14).
My vision is to connect this group of people through this Synagogue
Without Walls. Consider making this your synagogue. With your help
and active participation, we can meet the needs of people around
the world.
