Mr. Batman - Sharing the Enduring Truth of Torah

Meet Jim Barber, known to many as "Mr. Batman," a name lovingly given to him by his students during his time in the school system. This unique moniker now represents his passionate commitment to sharing the light of Scripture through his teaching ministry, MrBatman.com.

For over 20 years, alongside his wife Robyn, Jim has dedicated his life to understanding and living out the Bible from a first-century Hebrew perspective.

His journey to this path was unconventional. Starting as an atheist, Jim's deep search for truth led him first to Christianity, and then to the profound realization that following God means embracing the entirety of His Word, the Torah. This conviction drives his engaging and straightforward teachings on platforms like YouTube and Facebook, and his website, where he unpacks Scripture, delves into apologetics, and illuminates the significance of Torah-based living, including the often-overlooked biblical feast days found in Leviticus 23.

Having previously served as a science and speech & debate teacher, as well as a pastor deeply involved in street preaching and community outreach (now focusing on the homeless and shut-ins through Turning Point Church), Jim’s teaching style blends insightful biblical instruction with personal testimony. His mission is clear: to encourage believers to wholeheartedly embrace God's commandments as an expression of love.

A testament to his unwavering faith, Jim experienced a remarkable recovery from prostate cancer, which he attributes to divine intervention. Even during this challenging time, his commitment to sharing the Good News remained strong, as he ministered to the healthcare professionals on his cancer team.

Looking ahead, Jim and Robyn are preparing for a new chapter in Grand Prairie, Texas. Whether connecting online or in person, Jim "Mr. Batman" Barber's passion for the Bible is contagious, inviting others to discover the richness and relevance of Torah-based living in their own lives.
