Raised as a second-generation Messianic Jew, David Chernoff has a blessed and richly deep Messianic Jewish background not many can claim. His parents, Founding Rabbi Martin and Yohannah Chernoff, were pioneers in the Messianic Jewish Movement. They served the Lord for over 40 years bringing Messiah Yeshua (Jesus in Hebrew) to the Jewish People.They also started one of the first Messianic synagogues of the modern Messianic Movement in 1970. As a “PK,” (Preacher’s Kid) – or as we say in the Messianic Movement a “RK” (Rabbi’s Kid) – Rabbi Chernoff came to know the Lord at a prayer meeting during the time of the Jesus Movement Revival in the late 60’s and early 70’s. It was at this prayer meeting, when he was 19 years old, that he was both dramatically saved and filled with the Holy Spirit.
