No Longer Silent: A Zionist’s Reckoning with Gaza and the Way of Jesus

In this latest Determinetruth livestream, Rob Dalrymple and Bruce Fisk will be joined by New Testament professor Joel Willits to explore Joel’s journey from supporter of Israel’s War on Gaza to outspoken critic.  A longtime advocate for the State of Israel and a Christian Zionist,  Joel believes Zionists must have a conscience.  While not rejecting Zionism outright, he insists that in this historical moment, a faithful Christian witness demands speaking out against Israel’s conduct of the war in Gaza and the mass eviction of and violence against Palestinians in the West Bank. Jesus’ call of discipleship right now means standing with those who are Israel’s critics. With deep honesty, Joel will share the personal and theological transformation that led him to publicly break with his support for Israel. The horrifying civilian death toll, the destruction of upwards of 90% of the homes, and most of the infrastructure in Gaza have made neutrality impossible. Join us for a courageous conversation that seeks not political allegiance, but a Kingdom-centered pursuit of truth, peace, and justice for all.

Rethinking Israel and Gaza: A Conversation with Darrell Bock

In the Spring of 2024, Professor Darrell Bock of Dallas Theological Seminary joined us to defend Israel’s military campaign against Hamas in the aftermath of October 7, 2023. At the time, he was a strong proponent of Israel’s right—and need—to defeat Hamas as well as its right to exist in peace with her neighbors through recognition of her rights as a nation to which this battle was tied. Nineteen months later, Dr. Bock says the two goals are more in conflict and complicated than is often acknowledged. The current pursuit of this has resulted in significant damage to the region. In this follow-up conversation, we will consider what this tension means and how its calibration affects the region. What does it mean to support Israel? What does it mean for Hamas as an organization and for the Palestinians caught in the nexus of the violence? What does this shift say about the role of Christian theology, justice, and peacemaking in the midst of devastating conflict? Join us for a thoughtful and honest dialogue as we discuss what it means to be faithful to Jesus in the face of ongoing war, suffering, and the call to seek peace for all.

Gaza, the Gospel, and Christian Support for Israel: Has the Church Said Enough? With Ross Wagner 

In the latest installment of our Israel-Gaza livestream series, Rob Dalrymple and Danny Hall sit down with Dr. Ross Wagner, professor at Duke Divinity School, for a candid and compassionate conversation on the church’s response to the war in Gaza. Building on the previous discussions with Joel Willits and Darrell Bock, Rob and Ross will reflect on their critiques of Israel’s actions, affirming what was said, but also asking: Have we gone far enough? They will address such questions as: Why has so much of the church remained silent in the face of such suffering? What does faithfulness to Jesus look like in the midst of devastation and political complexity? And how can the church embody the way of the cross at a time like this? Join us as we wrestle with the hard questions, grieve the ongoing tragedy in Gaza, and explore what it means to bear faithful witness to the gospel of peace and justice in a world torn by war.
