My name is Josh.
I am registered in both sisterwives.com (which I found online, and in part my wife and I loved watching its name sake years ago, series after series of Sister Wives, apart from their mormon faith, we liked everything else, except the part, where in one episode, they consulted a palm reader) and modernpolygamy.com (which I heard from biblicalfamilies that it has believers in it) - if you know of another one that is better or I should be in, let me know.
Let me state here that I am being very honest and vulnerable here, and so bear with me and keep this in confidence, that is, within biblical families.
My Messianic Jewish faith is a gentle heartbeat in my life—a Biblical spirituality that quietly guides me like a trusted compass. (My family and I am are far from legalistic, and I am very sorry if some people equate Messianic Judaism with legalism.)
I served as a leader for more than 20 years, in both the USA and Europe (and our congregation ended due to Covid). I have lived all over the English and German speaking world in Europe. I also speak German (but my wife of over years, and our children speak much better German and Hebrew than me).
I'm a man who values integrity, drawing wisdom from ancient Scriptures while striving to uphold the Marriage Covenant and Torah (biblical instruction) in my daily walk.
I cherish intentionality and open-hearted directness, believing relationships deepen through mutual curiosity and kindness.
I'd love to lead with thoughtful questions and respond to yours with genuine care.
Apart form filmmaking, I also enjoy writing songs (though I'm no singer!).
What would you like to know more about? I'm eager to connect with the right person. (Let me say here, that for friendship purposes, I am also looking for brothers in the Lord.)
About the right person with whom I want to connect?
Like my wife of over 20 years (we are currently separated, and she has given me her full blessings to find another wife; and yes, she fully understands the biblical concept of plural marriage and sister-wives, and yes, she is also the only woman I have ever consummated with, and she me only, as well).
My wife is a woman of profound faith, whose life beautifully mirrors reverence for the Lord—we share three wonderful children (12 to 19 years of age) (homeschooled, with experience in public and private schools too, and each of whom were trained by me for their Bat/Bar-Mitzvahs - and they are all also fluent Hebrew speakers).
Honest, compatible, and rooted in Scripture, our bond proves the truth of Proverbs 18:22: "He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favour from the Lord."
Through her, and through our children, I’ve grown so much—learning to communicate early and honestly instead of letting frustrations linger, to truly listen (especially when one of us feel unseen), and to own my weaknesses by actively working on them, not just saying sorry.
Both my wife and one of our children live with type 1 diabetes. I have done what I could to support them, though they have always shown strength and independence in managing their care—even before insulin pumps, which have since lightened the constant responsibility of deciding when to inject.
These lessons have made me deeply grateful for partnership built on grace and truth. Currently, while my wife finishes another academic degree in one continent, I am here in this continent, visiting and helping my much older relatives who are not well.
I know what it feels to be lonely or to be alone, as I was single for the first 35 years of my life. If you wish to simply talk or chat or message, without any strings attached, just message me.
What are my favorite way to spend time?
I love calm, meaningful moments: playing chess, quiet walks as a thinker, and treasuring good touch (like a massage—it’s one of my love languages!).
My beautiful and intelligent wife, a woman of valour, has taught me the joy of simple special times together—a café date or bringing flowers—plus our family’s warm Friday night dinners that grounded us all.
Currently, I work online, part-time, in IT (and also looking for a better job - and I covet your prayers for this), while pursuing my dream of filmmaking—creating inspiring good stories. I’ve studied filmmaking in England, and it’s a passion that lights me up. I am also making video AI via Runway at the moment.
Looking forward to hearing your story!
