Sandro is also President of Acquisition and Development at Big Screen Entertainment Group - an LA media company with a global focus. Also joining us on the show this week is our Special Guest - pastor and author - Mark Biltz! Mark Biltz is the founder of El Shaddai Ministries in Washington State and the best-selling author of “Blood Moons – Decoding the Imminent Heavenly Signs” - revealing a link between charts of solar and lunar eclipses from NASA’s website with Israel’s history, the Biblical feast days, and signs in the heavens - drawing clear similarities between them, as they line up through history. Mark is a well-known and popular commentator on the Feasts of the Lord and has produced a series of DVDs on the Feasts that have gone around the world. His research and theories have earned him guest appearances on both radio and television as well as the cover of magazines. He shows how the Messianic prophecies fulfilled 2,000 years ago when Messiah came the first time, happened to the very day of the spring Feasts. He then explains how the second coming events will also happen to the very day of the Fall Feasts. Yeshua died for our sins on Passover, was buried on the Feast of Unleavened Bread, resurrected from death on First Fruits, and then sent the Holy Spirit to indwell believers on the Jewish Feast of Pentecost (Shavuot). If Messiah fulfilled the spring Feasts to the day of His first coming He will fulfill the Fall Feasts to the day of His second coming. Mark felt a real need to refocus on Hebrew Roots and to get back to an original understanding of the context and culture to have a correct understanding of the Bible. His wife, Vicki, bought him a book by a Jewish Rabbi named Moshe Braun called The Jewish Holy Days - Their Spiritual Significance. He saw such depth to the material and realized that Christians were missing so much by seeing themselves as cut off from the Jewish mindset and culture. He became a passionate student of literature written from a Jewish mindset and was humbled by the grace, wisdom and insight that poured forth. Mark realized the Jewish people loved the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and had been studying and mining the Tanakh for millennia looking for nuggets. So he started El Shaddai Ministries in 2001 to educate Christians from all different denominations on how anti-Semitism and replacement theology has crippled our understanding of God and the covenants He has made with His people – the Jews. Now Pastor Mark leads tours to Israel every year as well as leading the local congregation El Shaddai Ministries that he founded in 2001.
