Based on The Olive Tree series of radio programmes, the individual stories of Jewish believers and Arab/Palestinian Christians featured in this book present the reader with a dilemma; how to reconcile what is broadcast through the news channels with what God is doing in Israel and the West Bank today! Here you will read how the Body of Christ, which includes both Jews and non-Jews (Arabs/Palestinians) is growing in size and unity in the Holy Land today despite the politics and conflict that divide these two peoples. Reconciliation in the Middle East is fraught with danger and seemingly impossible challenges. However, reconciliation is possible through the Cross, no matter how powerful the childhood indoctrination or how great the social pressure. 'This inspirational, heart-warming volume is a must for all who champion reconciliation in our Messiah.' - Susan Perlman, Jews for Jesus
Fifteen stories demonstrating how, though their peoples have been enemies for centuries, Christian Jews and Arabs are actively working for reconciliation.About the AuthorJulia Fisher is an experienced journalist and broadcaster, most recently with Premier Radio.
