We have team members in California, Texas, Kansas, Pennsylvania, Florida, Virginia, and North Carolina. Philip Bottomley and others are also ready to travel elsewhere.

We are eager to share how learning about biblical holidays or studying in Israel can enrich our understanding of the Gospel of Jesus the Messiah.

Invite CMJ USA to help your group

  • conduct a Passover Seder at any time of the year;
  • conduct a Shabbat evening meal;
  • host a Purim or Hanukkah celebration;
  • teach about the Jewish roots of the Christian faith;
  • plan an Israel trip through Shoresh Study Tours.

While some of our Jewish roots teachings are offered as lectures using a conventional teaching style, Philip Bottomley has developed several dramatic presentations using authentic Middle Eastern costumes and artifacts from CMJ UK’s Bible Come to Life Exhibition. These presentations, which are suitable for adults or children, include:

  • John the Baptizer, the Man and his Message
  • Jesus, the Good Shepherd
  • Moses: I am God’s Man
  • My name is Abraham
  • Jesus, our Great High Priest
  • Who were the Scribes?
  • Worship in the Tabernacle, Temple, and Synagogue
  • Life in the Desert, in the City, and in the Village

Did The Chosen’s get it wrong in Season 5?

By Jeff Roberts • April 15, 2025
The Forward recently posted a tough review of The Chosen by Mira Fox, a culture writer at The Forward. In one headline, they write “The Chosen: Last Supper is finally blaming the Jews.” Our own Jeff Roberts, who has seen the latest season, offers a rebuttal.

There are more Jewish believers in Jesus than you think

By Carino Casas • April 14, 2025
Of the nearly 6 million Jewish Americans adults, 5 percent say they are Christians or nearly 300,000 Jewish believers in Jesus. Of the 2.8 million Americans who have Jewish background (but were not considered Jewish in the report), 57 percent say they believe in Jesus or 1.6 million.
