Watch the full episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loVDBiJAPBc&t=2158sThe question of Israel has become one of the most divisive topics in America—splitting conservatives, Christians, libertarians, families, churches, and political movements. But why does this small nation create such massive tension? Is the issue purely political, or is there something deeper happening beneath the surface?In this conversation, John Lovell joins the discussion to wrestle through the Israel question from a Christian worldview. They talk about Israel’s place in Scripture, Romans 11, the difference between political Zionism and spiritual Zionism, America’s role in foreign policy, the war in Iran, the danger of hatred, and what it means to love your enemies without being naive.This is not a simple conversation, and it is not a clean soundbite.
