Israel isn’t much bigger than New Jersey and it’s home to only about nine million people, but it’s one of the most important--and criticized—countries in the world. American evangelical Christians have been one of Israel’s closest allies for decades, but do you know why? Do you know the Biblical significance of Israel today?Skip Heitzig’s understanding of this Jewish nation runs deep and he joined me on this episode to explain what you need to know about historic and modern Israel. Skip has lived in Israel and visited it 41 times. He’s also the senior pastor of Calvary Church of Albuquerque and a good friend of my family.Scripture Referenced:Isaiah 11:11, 66Psalm 2Jeremiah 33:3Romans 11Genesis 3, 6Revelation 12Matthew 22 Samuel & 1 Chronicles (The Promise to David)Ezekiel 5Daniel 11Going Farther:Billy Graham Evangelistic Association Prayer Line – 888-388-2683, or online: https://lp.billygraham.org/coronavirus-call-line/Bloodline: Tracing God’s Rescue Plan from Eden to Eternity, by Skip Heitzig -- https://shop.calvaryabq.org/mm5/merchant.mvc?Session_ID=f453b4ab250b1961cb0d93ccc97b5529&Store_Code=CALVARY&Screen=PROD&Product_Code=B531Biography of God, by Skip Heitzig -- https://shop.calvaryabq.org/mm5/merchant.mvc?Session_ID=f453b4ab250b1961cb0d93ccc97b5529&Store_Code=CALVARY&Screen=PROD&Product_Code=B542Websites:Billy Graham Evangelistic Association -- https://billygraham.org Billy Graham Radio – https://billygrahamradio.orgSamaritan’s Purse – https://samaritanspurse.org/7 Days in the Holy Land with Franklin Graham and Cissie Graham Lynch -- https://billygraham.org/video/7-days-in-the-holy-land/Connect with Skip Heitzig -- https://connectwithskip.com/Social Media:Cissie Graham Lynch Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/CissieGrahamLynchCissie Graham Lynch Instagram -- https://www.instagram.com/cissiegrahamlynch/Cissie Graham Lynch Twitter -- https://twitter.com/CissieGLynchBilly Graham Evangelistic Association Facebook --
