A deal is in place to end the fighting against Hamas in Gaza, to secure the release of the remaining 48 hostages who have been in captivity for two years, and which also compels Israel to release 2000 terrorists. Is peace breaking out? Between the recording and airing of this episode, any number of things can happen and change in an instant. Some of this may be outdated, but it’s still relevant for you to hear and have a hand on the pulse of what Israelis are thinking and how they are feeling. Listen and pray and share. And pray some more.

Two years since the October 7 Hamas massacre of 1200 and kidnapping of 251 people, of whom 48 are still in captivity, Israel finds itself still deep in a war, not only in Gaza but several other fronts. Iran and Hezbollah have been weakened but still remain real threats, Syria has been infiltrated by Islamists with backing from an ever more hostile Turkey yet maybe making overtures to peace, the Houthis in Yemen still manage to fire off missiles and launch drones on a regular basis, sending millions of Israelis to their bomb shelters. And the war on truth, and Jews, worldwide has escalated on many fronts. Israelis are prayerfully cautious about President Trump’s plan to end the war in Gaza and have all the hostages released, something that’s touch and go and a universal sense that Hamas cannot be trusted. Join us to take the pulse of how Israelis are doing.

Genesis 12:3 is a foundational scripture for non-Jews, Christians, to be a blessing to Israel, and for Israel to be a blessing to the families of the world. It’s reciprocal, a formula, albeit parallel. But it’s also sometimes overused, and done so in ways that are transactional, even manipulative. How can we understand the depth and obligations of this pivotal verse and what are our reciprocal obligations to one another as Jews with the world, and the world – and specifically Christians – to Israel and the Jewish people. Buckle up. You’ve never heard this one verse unpacked in this depth, especially now.
