My family and I have known, loved, and learned from Rabbi Gillispie and family for almost 15 years. Awaken to Torah Ministries has been an integral part of our spiritual growth and understanding after coming out of traditional Christianity and embracing our Jewish Messiah and His Torah. From our early meetings with him in his home through our current meetings at Beit Hillel Messianic Fellowship, Rabbi James continues to challenge my thinking and pushes me to grow in my studies and relationship with the Father.

I can say so many things about the fellowship and congregation as a whole. First and foremost I would like to speak on Rabbi James. Who has welcomed my family and me with open arms. He has taken time out of his days to counsel my husband and me during trying times in our marriage. He did not tell us what we wanted to hear but what we needed to hear in order to become better partners with each other.

Being apart of these ministries for the last 3+years has dramatically changed my life and my marriage. I have learned so much that it is hard to put into words. I know that the Father works through brother James and these ministries as I have seen not only changes in my life and that of my family, but the lives of other families as well, including but not limited to, miracles of healings and deliverance! It has been such a blessing to be a part of these ministries, I can’t even begin to tell you!

James Gillispie, Has been a great mentor spiritual dad he helped me see my need for a good Godly man he also has helped me realize that submission and respect go hand and hand for a successful marriage in working what he has taught me it’s really really helped me in my walk!
