My name is Izzy Avraham and I'm the editor of Jesus First-Person. I'm a lover and a dreamer, caught up in the romance of knowing and following Yeshua of Nazareth as closely as I can. My scholarship and life's work are an overflow of my passionate pursuit of the Messiah. I help people get closer to Yeshua through Hebrew at Holy Language Institute (holylanguage.com). I'm also involved with "the Tribe", our online community. I teach Mussar, an ancient Jewish discipline of inner work and character development, through the Mussar Center (mussar.org). For followers of Yeshua, this is a Biblical way of becoming more like him. I help people create communities of disciples making more disciples at Yeshua Groups (yeshuagroups.com), a network of groups getting together to tell the stories of Scripture and talk about them campfire-style.
