Our Story

A professor by trade, Jared brings his analytic mind and love of research to his studies and co-writes the Messianic Curriculum for Families along with Hollie. Raised in the church and a child believer, Jared has been in relationship with the Father for over 30 years and has a unique understanding of both Christianity and the Torah that allows him to operate as a “bridge” between observance of the Father’s commands and our fellow brothers and sisters in Christianity who have questions and seek to understand. 

Jared enjoys shepherding his flock of Jacob sheep, raising Myotonic Fainting goats, a large flock of birds, and 7 children unto his Heavenly Father.

It is the delight of his heart to watch his children grow wilder each day as he and his wife, Hollie, watch them run barefoot through the forest and praise their Creator with wild abandon.

As a child believer, Hollie recognized years later the tenderness with which the Father had always been drawing her heart nearer to His Torah through her unanswered questions and ponderings as a child. She holds children in high regard and believes their training is of the utmost importance.

She has been creating children’s curriculum for more than 15 years and loves thinking of new ways to build anticipation for the Appointed Times and celebrate the Father, His Son, and His Torah! Much of Celebrating the Bible’s products stem from either a need within her own family, or a recognized need within the community. Her desire is to equip families to train the next generation to develop the apologetics to navigate the times to come.

Hollie lives in a cabin in the woods in the beautiful Blueridge Mountains with her husband of more than 18 years, Jared, and her 7 children.

An avid reader, Cristi spends hours daily poring over Scripture as she desires to understand her Creator and His Ways. She enjoys asking deep, thought-provoking questions that challenge herself and others and is a child Believer who has loved her Messiah since she can remember. As a child, she had questions that the church and adult Christians in her circle could not answer. As she grew in understanding of the Torah (Old Testament) and applied that understanding to her knowledge of the Gospel, she became deeply bonded to her Messiah and was filled with WONDER and desire for the Father, His Times, His Character, and His Word.

She DELIGHTS in coming alongside Jared and Hollie (her sister) to recognize needs within the community of believers who deeply love the Father, his Son, and His Torah, and also support and encourage our brothers and sisters in Messiah who have not yet awoken to the Biblical truths detailed in Scripture.

Cristi spends her days enjoying her family homestead with her son and milking her dairy goats.
