The Kesher Project is a religious non-profit organization that seeks to promote positive Christian engagement with the Jewish community through education on the Jewish foundations of the Christian faith, combating antisemitism, relationship building, community forums, media resources, and study trips to the Holy Land.

​

Kesher is the Hebrew word for "connect"—and we are committed to helping local churches connect to the Jewish foundations of the Christian faith and to their Jewish friends and neighbors.

​

There are two core values that drive our mission:

​

• Jesus was Jewish—therefore his Jewishness matters to us.

• Jewish people mattered to Jesus—therefore Jewish people matter to us.

​

Historically, the Christian community has struggled with both.

​

But to fully understand Jesus, one cannot separate him from his Jewish identity and the people he chose to be a part of. To truly know Jesus' story, we must do what we would do for anyone else: learn something of his culture, family, and history.

​​

Do you agree?

 

If so, we would love to serve you and your congregation through any of the programs and projects we offer.

 

We also have relationships with other like-minded organizations and educators that we can refer you to and an extensive list of relevant resources to help you and your congregation better understand Jesus in his Jewish context and your Jewish friends and neighbors.
