About Zola Levitt Ministries
Zola Levitt Ministries, Inc. is guided by the standard of Romans 1:16 — “To the Jew first and also to the Gentile.”
Founded in 1979, we are principally a teaching and evangelistic association.
- Our national television program, Our Jewish Roots, airs on nearly a hundred independent stations and teaches the Bible with an emphasis on Israel, prophecy, and the Jewish roots of Christianity.
- Our free monthly Levitt Letter newsletter users gives a concise Biblical perspective with updates on recent events in Israel.
- We offer two tours each year to Israel and Petra in Jordan.
Tour Leaders
David and Kirsten Hart — the studio co-hosts for Our Jewish Roots — live in Orlando, Florida. David, originally from California, and Kirsten from New York each toured extensively with various ministries since the 1970s, but teamed up after marrying in 1990.
Besides both of them working with television ministries since the ’80s, David studied music at Azusa Pacific University (CA), served as lead vocalist for the Gospel group TRUTH (a song he recorded — “Jesus Never Fails” — landed the group in the Gospel Music Association’s Hall of Fame!), and as vocal director for The Voices of Liberty at Walt Disney World. Kirsten sang back up for Grammy-winner Larnelle Harris, the USO tour group Re-Creation, and The Spurrlows.
David currently leads worship for a local church, and Kirsten speaks to women’s conferences and retreats across the country. They particularly enjoy leading music for Holy Land tours and believe that singing about Yeshua in His land is life changing.
