I am the blessed mother of 5 adult children, two of whom are married to my two dear children-in-love, all of whom I am very proud of. I am grandmother to 9 beautiful grandchildren and 1 great-grand. I adore my grandchildren and they have truly been the inspiration for much of my writing so that I can leave them a legacy of love and hope! I am married to my best friend who is now in the loving care of the L-rd in heaven. I will always cherish the memory of my beloved husband.I am a graduate of Florida State University. I studied theology at Christian International Ministries and have taken several religious courses at Harvard University. I am an ordained minister and Founder/Director of Sylvia Thomas Worldwide Ministries. I love writing for my L-rd and view people and children all over the United States and the world as my harvest to minister to. I am delighted to present to you what I call my "Black Series," of books with the titles "The Sabbath Day for Black People," "Kosher Eating for Black People," and "The Jewish Holidays for Black People." These just published books in 2020, are written to help you get back to your culture and heritage as Jews. They will teach you the L-rd's commands for you today concerning the important commands that He originally gave to His people and now wants you to go back to observing them. These books are a blessing to all who want to learn more and reap in the blessings of the Black Jews which are being revealed today. Another exciting project today is my recently published book, "The Remnant of Israel: This is Our Story; This is Our Song-The Biblical History of Black People." I have been working on this book for a few years and now I present it to You! This book is required reading for my people, and a blessing to all! I assure you, you have not read a book like this one before, except for the Holy Bible. The book chronicles the biblical story of the Israelite people and proves without a doubt that Black people throughout the world are the descendants of the original Hebrew, Israelite, Jews and that Jesus, Yeshua Himself was a Black Jew. This is very important to understand in today's time because of the blessings that are promised to the Hebrew, Israelite, Jews in this day and time. This book not only records the history of Black people but also lets you know what to expect in your future. It has a word from "Thus saith the L-rd," about specific instructions given to His treasured people today. We, Black people, should be "baal teshuvah." Read my book and learn what that means!Some of the features of the book are that it has a large print for easier reading; it is written in a way that is easily understood with sub-headings; it is a captivating read, and it has a glossary of Hebrew words at the end so you can learn a little Hebrew as well! I also love my project, The Judah Collection. The Judah Collection is a series of cutting edge, unique and innovative Bible Storybooks with beautiful animation and people of color, created to spark new interest among children throughout the world today to encourage love, compassion, and inclusiveness. These books promote harmony among all races through biblical principles. Children love and cherish these books, and learn the Bible! There are 4 books so far in this beautiful book collection. The books are entitled Jesus, my Lord, Moses, and the Exodus from Egypt, The Disciples of Jesus, and my latest book Adam and Eve. Another one of the prized writings that I love is my book "Me? Jewish? The Revelation of a Black American Christian Jewish Woman." This book is my real-life account of my encounter with my L-rd Yeshua, Jesus in which He revealed many things to me about my ethnic identity and the ethnic identity of my people as being that of Hebrew/Israelite/Jew Heritage. This book is a must-read! Truly enlightening to all people!My book Tough Skin will help anyone who has been down and out in their lives, especially if you're going through depression. It applies the scripture in Ephesians 6 in which the L-rd told us what our weapons are to fight enemy warfare (Satan). Very uplifting!Women Especially!! Enjoy my book "In His Presence," a woman's devotional that will help you experience the quiet presence of G-d and deepen your love for the L-rd Jesus Christ, Yeshua in a special way. This devotional book is particularly helpful for those who want to learn to observe the Sabbath day (Saturday) and experience G-d's command to "rest and be holy" on that day. Men can benefit from this book as well!..."for you are a people holy to the L-RD your G-D. Out of all the peoples on the face of the earth, the L-rd has chosen you to be His treasured possession." (Deuteronomy 14:2)"Trust in the L-rd with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths." (Proverbs 3:5-6)Read more about this authorRead less about this author
