A Middle East Mom Carrying Hope for the Holy Land

A Middle East Mom Carrying Hope for the Holy Land August 28, 2015

For some end of the week encouragement…

Disputes over land are not new, but no present conflict has more geopolitical implications than what happens between Israel and, depending on your political views, the disputed or occupied territories. What does the ministry of reconciliation, the ministry we are entrusted with as believers in Jesus, look like here? And where is it happening?

I got to visit the Holy Land in March of this year where I met Angela Hersch, a truly wonderful lady and self-proclaimed human interest story junkie who maintains this really great, Kingdom-oriented blog called MiddleEastMom.com.

Stories of hope in this region of the world are few and far between, but Angela captures several of them beautifully here.  I urge everyone to check it out. While you’re at it, say a prayer for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6) with me.

And Shabbat Shalom to all my Jewish friends.
