Israel to Announce Approval of 4,000 New Homes to Be Built in Judea and Samaria

Israeli media reported this week that Israel is expected to soon announce the approval of more than 4,000 new homes in the biblical heartland.

The Biden Administration’s Hypocritical Statements About Israel

Whilst mainstream international media Israeli networks have been reporting on the weekly demonstrations in Israel that have attracted tens of thousands, sometimes hundreds of thousands, of people in protest of the proposed judicial reform, a different kind of rally took place in Jerusalem last night.

The Decision is No Different, But Simply More Defined

A significant portion of my time each week is spent producing content about Israel. I’ll be honest though.

This is When Our Commitment to Standing With Israel is Tested

Once again this past Friday, the enemies of God raised their heads, murdering two sisters and their mother in Israel’s Heartland via a shooting attack on their car in the Jordan Valley.

The World’s Sick Obsession with Hating Jews

When the story first broke two weeks ago that Hallel and Yagel Yaniv, two brothers from Har Bracha, were murdered in the Arab village of Huwarrah in Samaria, the media’s response was predictable, although a bit softer than normal. This particular attack was so brutal that it was difficult for even the most left-leaning outlets...

We Should All Be Angry That Jews Were Killed in Israel This Week

I was angry this week. Angry and sad at the same time. There was also a feeling of helplessness, as if there was nothing me or anyone else could do to fix the situation. I suspect many of you felt the same way.  Two brothers, Hillel and Yagel Yaniv, aged 19 and 21, were gunned...

Without Jewish identity, there would never be a Christian identity

Continuing our discussion on the conflict over Israel within the Christian community (please see the first part here), I want to dive into Christianity’s difficulty with Jewish identity.
