Jacob Prasch is Director of Moriel Ministries.He was born near New York City in the USA where he became a Christian while studying science in university in February of 1972.
After trying to disprove the Bible with science, history, and archaeology, he found so much evidence in support of the claims of Jesus and the Bible that it required more faith to reject it than to believe it.
Jacob was frustrated by the failures of the hippie generation to build a better world and disillusioned by Marxism to which he subscribed. When the drug culture claimed the lives of some of his friends and nearly his own, he put his faith in Jesus.
Jacob’s family is a combination of Roman Catholic and Jewish. In his youth he was forced to attend a Catholic school, but also attended the Jewish Community Center. Jacob’s wife Pavia, also from a science background, is a Romanian-born Israeli Jewish believer who is the daughter of holocaust survivors. Pavia was an atheist and Jacob was an agnostic. After coming to faith both switched from study in scientific fields to theological fields in Israel and in Britain. They have two children both born in Galilee.
Jacob is a Hebrew-speaking evangelist to the Jews and a Bible teacher elaborating on the original Judeo-Christian background and hermeneutics of the New Testament. His emphasis is on church planting and missions. He and Moriel have also been a conservative voice for biblically-based discernment among moderate Pentecostals and Charismatics opposed to the seduction of ecumenism, money oriented preaching, hype artistry, "charismania" and psycho-babble prevalent in today’s church.
Jacob and Moriel are committed to the conviction that we are in the Last Days approaching the return of Christ. They contend that contemporary events in the Middle East, the moral deterioration of society, the destruction of the environment, the globalization of the world economy, the rise of a pseudo-democratic federal Europe and, above all, the apostasy in the contemporary church, are all events of prophetic significance eschatologically.
Jacob’s tapes, CDs, books, and videos are available through the his website, Moriel ministries: www.moriel.org
