I am very excited to announce that this Friday, June 19, 2020, at 11am PDT (2pm EDT) I will be moderating a live zoom discussion on the Bible and the Land of Promise: A Christian Conversation. You can Register by following this link

What does the Bible say about the land of Israel? Did God promise it all to the descendants of Abraham? Where does that leave the Israelis and the Palestinians today? Did the coming of Jesus alter the way we read the promises of the Old Testament?

I will be joined by four esteemed Christian scholars: Gary Burge PhD, Joel Willits PhD, Craig Blaising PhD, and Daniel Bannoura MA.

There will be a Q&A time to follow.
