Jeff talks with Tamir Kugman, an Israeli believer in Jesus, and former IDF soldier about how he came to believe in Jesus as Messiah. Tamir Kugman is on staff with Jews for Jesus in Tel Aviv and works in the media department. He was born in Israel, and though he is from a secular Jewish family, he kept many Jewish traditions. Tamir came to faith in Yeshua (Jesus) at the age of 21 during his army service, where he worked as an animator for the Isreali Defence Force.

He is currently the only believer in his family. After receiving a BA in special education and an MA in learning disabilities, he worked as a public school special education teacher and as the assistant manager at a Messianic school.

Over the last two decades, Tamir has taught the Bible to children, youth, and adults, both in camps and in a congregational setting. In 2019, Tamir felt a new call, and began serving with Jews for Jesus.

Tamir is passionate about using his artistic talents to teach about Jesus.. Tamir is married to Hadas and they have five children.
