Bob Mendelsohn served as the director of Jews for Jesus in Australia and New Zealand for 25 years. He now spends half the year in Nashville and half in Sydney. He grew up as an Orthodox Jew in Kansas City, became a university drop out, and looked for the meaning of life in the counterculture of the 1960s. He found meaning and relevance in Jesus, which caused him much trouble in his local community, but he says, “It was worth the cost.”
Bob encouraged Rabbi Glenn and Rebbetzin Pamela and others when they were students at the Univesity of Madison-Wisconsin involved with an outreach to the campus, Believers in Messiah.
