    How a Near-Death Crisis Sparked Paul Sarvadi’s Mission to Strengthen Jewish-Christian Unity

    Paul Sarvadi’s personal and business journey was shaped by a life-altering crisis in which he nearly lost his wife and newborn child, leading him to recognize he was never truly in control. That moment drove him toward a deeper faith in God and ultimately inspired the founding of Insperity — a multibillion-dollar HR company built on biblical values such as dignity, integrity, and servant leadership. His convictions remained unwavering even when doing the right thing cost him financially, reinforcing a culture rooted in Scripture rather than profit alone. His success became the engine for the Nathaniel Foundation — established long before wealth existed — which now strengthens humanitarian work and Jewish-Christian relationships, especially through support for Israel. Sarvadi believes that calling, not career, is what gives a life true alignment, and that Christians should invest their influence where God’s priorities are most evident: His people, His land, and His word. His leadership story is ultimately a testimony that business achievement means nothing if it doesn’t advance God’s purpose in the world.

    The Call to Stop: How Shabbat Changed a Christian Family—and Their Future

    Rick and Crystal Rumer’s journey began as a family road trip to Alaska and turned into a radical life shift of faith and purpose. Leaving behind successful businesses after moral conflicts, they founded a refuge for women and children rescued from sex trafficking, working with law enforcement and the FBI. Their discovery of Shabbat became central — a rhythm of rest and renewal that sustained their work and family. Through keeping Shabbat, they found peace amid darkness, learning that faith requires stopping, resting, and trusting.When illness brought them back to Texas, the Rumers rebuilt their business with integrity at its core. Their real estate company now helps working families own property through fair, faith-driven financing. They’ve seen firsthand how ethics and enterprise can coexist — deferring payments for struggling clients and prioritizing people over profit. Today, near Fort Worth, they celebrate Shabbat with a tight-knit fellowship, living out what they learned in Alaska: that obedience, rest, and trust in God bring both spiritual and practical renewal.

    Gayle Timberlake’s Simka: Teaching the Bible Where It Happened

    Gayle Timberlake founded the Simka Foundation to bridge faith with geography — teaching Christians the Bible in the context of the land where it happened. Her journey began in Jerusalem, where she realized her understanding of Scripture lacked the living history rooted in Israel. Today, Simka leads tours across Israel, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia, hosts weekly Shabbat gatherings in U.S. cities, and equips leaders to interpret Scripture through its original culture and language. With experience in banking, marketing, and executive coaching, Timberlake merges ancient biblical rhythms with modern leadership, emphasizing rest, integrity, and community. Her signature lesson — that isolation destroys leaders — drives her focus on teamwork and collaboration.Simka’s programs are hands-on and rooted in practice: Shabbat tables, educational guides, an app with teachings from top scholars, and tours that trace biblical events on-site. Timberlake’s academic background — including a PhD in Second Temple Judaism — grounds her mission in rigorous scholarship and a drive to correct distorted Christian teachings that erase Judaism from Scripture. Through interfaith events, creative resources, and immersive experiences, she pushes a message of unity, truth, and lived faith. Her work with Israel365 and global partners carries one goal — to build authentic Christian-Jewish friendship and help believers live the Bible through time, community, and place.

    How Randy Ferreira Turned a 5-Man Bible Study into a Movement

    Randy Ferreira transformed a stagnant five-man Bible study at a 7,000-member church into a thriving movement called Wingman Nation, drawing 400 men every week. His entrepreneurial spirit, which initially grew from small summer jobs painting apartments, led him to build a real-estate empire managing thousands of units across the Southeast. Through his company, Blue Rock Premiere, Ferreira integrates biblical principles into his business, with prayer and scripture becoming key aspects of company culture. His focus on doing what’s right in God’s eyes over profits has been central to his success.Beyond business, Ferreira’s commitment to faith-driven leadership led him to create Wingman Nation, a program offering men a space for fellowship, accountability, and spiritual growth. This initiative expanded rapidly, spreading to other churches. During COVID, Ferreira adapted by launching podcasts that provided biblical guidance on cultural issues. His message is clear: men should lead at home, and when they do, their families often follow. Ferreira continues to support faith-based causes and encourages others to live ethically, give back, and blend business with belief.

    Peter Auerbach on Faith, Fortune, and Finding Meaning in the Marketplace

    Peter Auerbach, managing director of Auerbach Funds, shared with Rabbi Rami Goldberg on Biblical Money how an unexpected encounter with a homeless man outside a Colorado gas station changed the trajectory of his life. What began as an ordinary day turned extraordinary when the man offered to bless him, and moments later, a rainbow appeared — followed by a call that led to Auerbach’s first investment fund. That experience, which he calls “divine timing,” marked the start of his journey to reconnect faith, business, and purpose. Raised in a secular Jewish home on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, Auerbach rediscovered Judaism through Chabad, beginning to pray, study Torah, and give back through quiet acts of generosity and compassion.Today, Auerbach sees his professional success as inseparable from his spiritual growth. His business philosophy centers on gratitude, ethics, and respect for human dignity — values he believes the modern marketplace desperately needs. Deeply concerned about rising antisemitism and moral decay, he supports Israel365’s mission to strengthen Jewish-Christian ties and promote Israel’s true story. His latest initiative, the “Shabbat Challenge,” invites non-Jews to experience Jewish life firsthand through shared meals and conversation. For Auerbach, faith, family, and business are not separate — they’re one integrated path toward meaning and service.
