Weep with Those Who Weep
I had the amazing privilege of being asked to march at the front of the Israel Day parade in New York City on May 19 with some of the hostages who have been released from Gaza. The Jerusalem Prayer Team has been at the front of the fight for their return since October...
Israel’s 77th Birthday
This year marks the 77th anniversary of the greatest miracle of the modern era—the rebirth of the Jewish state after 19 centuries. Though it seemed to be impossible, the dream of Jewish people through the years for a return to their homeland, was promised by God. ...
How Does God See Jerusalem…And How Should We See It?
When viewing the history of Jerusalem as a whole, no other city has suffered as has David’s City. At times, the city has been overrun by violent assailants. It is recorded in Jeremiah that the city would surrender after suffering the horrors of starvation. While...
God Wants to Be Close to You

“For Such a Time as This”
In just a few days, Jewish people around the world will be celebrating the Feast of Purim, remembering the amazing miracle deliverance God brought about in the days of Esther. Purim begins on the 14th day of the Hebrew month Adar. One of the central parts of the Purim...
Mountain Moving Faith
The evangelist Dwight L. Moody once said, “Faith that fizzles in the finish has a flaw in the beginning.” For many Christians, faith is a concept, not a reality. It is easier for them to talk about faith than to walk by it, but the Bible says it is impossible...
Never Forget
Recently, we hosted International Holocaust Remembrance Day at the Friends of Zion Center in Jerusalem. Our keynote speaker was Rena Quint, a Holocaust survivor. As a child, Rena endured unimaginable suffering. At the age of nine, she lay down under a tree,...
