The Little Bakery on Prophets Street


Tucked between Moshe’s falafel stand and Eli’s makolet (small grocery store) on Prophets Street is a little bakery. Each Friday morning without fail, I make my way to this bakery and buy a loaf of challah from Ronnie for our Shabbat dinner. It is one of the special moments of my week. Ronnie always greets

The Battle of the Gods


“Allahu akbar!” These are often the first words to pierce the subconscious minds of many Jerusalemites in the predawn darkness. They’re not alone.

The call stirs

What if you could witness Christian generosity in action, transforming lives in Israel? Recently, during a visit to Neve Landy, a home for troubled boys, I had the opportunity to do just that. Neve Landy is unique in its model, mission and the lives it changes. Let me share this extraordinary place in southern Israel


Survivors: Then and Now


I found myself sitting on an old couch, eating pierogi (Russian dumplings), listening to the life story of an elderly woman and her husband. They were real. Now, that might sound like a strange statement, but for a young American adult fresh out her teenage years, the Holocaust and its survivors used to be confined


The Flame that Refused to Be Extinguished


The Year is AD 135… Jerusalem lies under the iron grip of the infamous Roman Emperor Hadrian. As the age-old Bible stories recount, the Romans ruled the Promised Land with ruthless cruelty, seeking to extinguish the Jewish light from their Empire. Yet a remarkable archaeological discovery has proven that Jewish faith endured despite the oppression.

Dousing Iran’s Ring of Fire


Thirteen years after the opening shots of the Syrian Civil War rang out on March 15, 2011, the devastating conflict came to an abrupt finale—against all odds and all in just over a week. Damascus fell to a coalition of rebels led by the Islamist militant group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) on December 8, 2024,

The Officers of the IDF


My first encounter with an officer of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) was in 1985 at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, home of the US Army Field Artillery. Assigned there for the Officers Advanced Course, I was privileged to sponsor one of the allied nation officers in attendance: Captain Nir Granot from Tel Aviv. My wife and


To Life!


Jenan Matari wrung her hands uneasily as she peered bravely into the camera. “This is a very heavy, uncomfortable video,” she began. Matari paused briefly, as if bracing under the burden of the message she was about to deliver. “We’re going to talk about the existence of Israel as a sadist entity as a whole,”
