While in Miami, he attended Amelia Earhart  Elementary School from first grade to the sixth grades.  He also attended Hialeah Jr. High School.  Through Yahweh’s intervention he left Miami in 1985 and moved to St. Augustine Florida to begin a new life, and to start learning the sports of football, wrestling, and track. 

Daniel played high school Varsity football, for three and a half years and during his last year he had a horrible football injury, which stole his sight.  He went on to wrestle, and win two Florida State heavyweight championships.  One sighted in 1988 and then another in1990 after losing his sight. He graduated late, from high school as a result of his sports injury. 

Daniel attended The Florida State University, where he obtained a degree in political science, and another degree in criminology.  Daniel is also a brother and the first African American President of the Zeta Alpha chapter of Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity.  That is where his interest in Hebraic life began.

Daniel has resisted two attempts at conversion to rabbinic Judaism, one in 1988, by the families of Jewish wrestlers, whom Yahweh had given him great favor, with; and then another in 1998 from brothers of the fraternity who were also Jewish, with whom YHWH had given him great favor with.  This favor in both cases still is on going. 

Daniel has been a witness to both the families of those Jewish men with whom he wrestled with in high school and the family high up in the fraternity system. Daniel has allowed YHWH to use him, where ever, and whenever He chooses. 

Daniel came to B’nai Yahshua Synagogue of Broward County Florida, seven years ago, and he has allowed YHWH to purge him of past hurts, rejection, abandonment and pain. Daniel has been raised up to preach and teach the Besorah/Gosepl of truth to the spiritually blind, the physically blind, the disabled and the hurting. 

You can listen to his Sunday morning teaching and healing program weekly at 9 AM EST on the YATI Radio Network www.yatiradionetwork.com     

Yochanan ben Daniel-Governor Staten

My name is Governor Staten, or Yochanan ben Daniel. I was born February 26, 1981 in Bonifay Florida.

In 1985, I went to the Florida School for the Deaf and Blind in St. Augustine Florida. I was there for my primary and secondary education. While I was there, I dabbled in piano, guitar, track and field, goal ball, singing in a choir and a band, and many other things. From 10-12 grade, I took classes at St. Augustine High School, which I enjoyed greatly. I graduated in 1999 from Florida School for the Deaf and Blind.

From 1999-2001, I went to TCC, and was at FSU until late in 2008. I got my bachelors in history.. I came to this Hebraic truth through Daniel Ben Moshe my ministry partner. I observed, read the emails, listened to the online broadcasts  and finally took my place in the Nazarene Yisraelite movement in December of 2008.  Through the intervention of YHWH, I moved to Coral Springs Florida in July of 2009. I attend B’nai Yahshua Synagogue of Broward County.
