Welcome to The Israel Guys Media, where our passion for Israel runs deep and our commitment to sharing the true and authentic stories of the Holy Land knows no bounds!
The Israel Guys is a pro-Israel media initiative started by HaYovel, a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing Christian volunteers from around the world Israel to serve, bless, and strengthen the Jewish people. Click here to read more about HaYovel and our volunteer projects in Israel.

The History of The Israel Guys
We launched our first pro-Israel media production in 2013, known as The Joshua & Caleb Report TV show. Each episode featured the story of one of Israel’s pioneers, heroes, or courageous families who have returned to the land of their forefathers. Four seasons of the TV show were released on Christian television networks around the world between 2013 and 2018, totaling 32 half-hour episodes.
In 2018, the TV show was discontinued and the Joshua & Caleb Report became a weekly show hosted by Joshua Waller and Luke Hilton, aired from our studio in Har Bracha, Israel, and available on YouTube and every major podcast platform.
In 2021, the show was relaunched under the name The Israel Guys and is now watched by millions around the world. Today, we have 5 differents show hosts – Luke, Josiah, Joshua, Ben, and Justin.
In addition to our weekly in-studio shows, we also began filming special edition shows where our team takes the audience out on the streets to show our viewers what’s really happening on the ground in both Jewish and Palestinian areas of Judea and Samaria (a.k.a. the West Bank).
Our special edition shows have included things like interviewing a local Palestinian mayor, going behind the scenes and exposing a fake riot, or disproving the New York Times’ claim that most Palestinians are in poverty and have to ride around in donkey carts while Jewish people zoom around in luxury cars.
Our Team
LUKE HILTON
Born and raised in Virginia Beach, Luke Hilton first came on a trip to Israel when he was 16. Little did he know he would be forever changed as he began to see his Bible come to life. Since then, he has become a passionate advocate on behalf of Jerusalem, Judea, and Samaria––the heartland of Israel.
Luke has been speaking about Israel to groups around the world since 2011, and has traveled extensively in the United States, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia. His heart is to see God’s Kingdom restored to Israel. His passion is to tell the story of Israel to millions of Christian Zionists around the world, inspiring them to engage in God’s story that is unfolding in the Holy Land.
Luke works for the non-profit 501c3 organization HaYovel as Director of Marketing. Under Luke’s gifted hands, HaYovel has gained international airtime for the popular TV show The Joshua and Caleb Report: Stories from the Heartland of Israel.
Today, he serves as Marketing Director of HaYovel and The Israel Guys, show-co host, and article author.
JOSIAH HILTON
Josiah was born and raised in Virginia Beach, Virginia, in a Christian home with a love for Israel. He made his first trip to Israel with his family when he was 11 and has continued serving in Israel every year since. Josiah is now a passionate ambassador for the Land of Israel.
Josiah works full-time for the 501c3 non-profit HaYovel doing brand and content development, email marketing and publishing. When not in the office, Josiah can be found traveling the world speaking about Israel or leading volunteer operations on small farms in Israel’s heartland.

BEN HILTON
Ben grew up in a homeschooled family of eight children in Virginia Beach, VA. Since he was very young, Ben has been fascinated with technology and creative imagination, always thinking “out of the box.” Homeschooling lent itself well to this bent, and in 2010 Ben made his first trip to Israel.
Shortly after this, Ben began producing short videos for HaYovel which eventually launched itself into a media department. In 2012, he produced his first documentary project and, together with his brother Luke, went on to write, film, and edit over 30 episodes of The Joshua and Caleb Report TV show along with many other inspirational short films and promotionals. Ben’s work has aired on many TV stations around the world, as well as won awards in international film festivals.
Ben is in charge of videography and production for the Israel Guys, ensuring that our brand remains at the forefront of English media coming out of Israel.
JUSTIN HILTON
Justin was born and raised in Virginia Beach, Virginia, in a Christian home with a love for Israel. He made his first trip to Israel with his family when he was seven and has continued serving in Israel every year since.
Justin now lives in Israel and works for the 501c3 non-profit HaYovel, helping with on-the-ground operations as well as photography, filming, and media production.
Justin is a weekly show host on The Israel Guys, an author for many of our articles, and is also on our post-production team, using his expertise to run the mixing board and studio equipment at our headquarters office in Israel, as well as editing and publishing our weekly shows that air worldwide.
