A church that engages with Israel will never be the same

We know you want to lead your church well, but without a healthy understanding of Israel, your church could be missing out.


Many pastors feel that...

  • Israel is important but aren’t sure what to do about it.
  • Christian support of Israel is often unbalanced, or weird.
  • Israel is too complex and controversial to teach about.
  • The Church is the new, spiritual Israel.
