140. Should Christians Care About What Is Happening In Israel?

A war is happening in Israel, but is it our responsibility to care or do anything about it? What makes Israel so special today anyways?

In today’s episode, Pastor Jackie and Pastor Derek talk through what’s happening in Israel right now and how Christians should view this ongoing war. We look back at God’s history with Israel and the covenant He made with them that still holds true today. We also dug into Scripture that explains why Israel always seems to be at war, God’s eventual restoration of Israel, and how we should be praying for them as a nation right now.
