More about the course...
JET stands for Jewish Engagement Training; a free online teaching resource designed to equip Christians to better reach out to Jewish people. JET is comprised of four video modules that are short, interactive and practical.
Firstly, an introductory presentation by Rev Alex Jacob, CMJ’s CEO. Alex makes a compelling case for Christians and Churches in how to make good missional connections within Jewish contexts.
CMJ Evangelist, Oliver Sims, then brings four down-to-earth and easy to understand videos expounding the missional themes of Kingdom, Culture, Care and Calendar. In each session, Bible verses and Points for Action are given to empower you in the sometimes sensitive issues of cross-cultural mission to Jewish people. Further resources and Bible study materials are also available free to download and use. Most of the insights from the course can also be applied to a range of other evangelistic initiatives.
CMJ is Britain’s oldest Jewish mission agency dating back to 1809. As such, we have many years of valuable experience to share. CMJ continues to uphold the mission of sharing the Gospel with Jewish people - bringing the message back to the very people who gave us our Bible. CMJ has a history to celebrate and a future to declare and the JET course is an integral part of that.

An Open Invitation...
A warm welcome to JET - Jewish Engagement Training.
This series is hosted and written by one of CMJ UK's Community Based Evangelists, Oliver Sims.
Explore how God’s design has always been for the Gospel to go out from the Jewish people (Isaiah 60:1-3). It’s only natural then when Gentile people bring it back to Jewish people!
We do hope you'll use these for your own personal connection with Jewish people as well as learning more about the Jewish roots of our Christian Faith. Perhaps you'd like to use the videos as part of a group study or with a like-minded friend?
Documents are available to download within each section to help you and feedback is welcome.
We recommend you start by listening to an introduction by Rev. Alex Jacob here.
