Episodes
Christian Zionism explained | Rev. Dr. Munther
2/24/2026
Rev. Dr. Munther begins by tracing the historic roots of Christianity in the land and explaining the challenges facing Christians today. He describes how daily life is shaped by checkpoints, separation barriers, discrimination, and recurring violence, and shares his perspective on the pressures many Palestinians experience in their efforts to remain in their homeland. The conversation also explores the concept of Christian Zionism — how it is defined, its theological and political implications, and why Rev. Dr. Munther believes it presents serious challenges for Palestinian Christians. He discusses the recent visit of 1,000 pastors to the West Bank and reflects on the broader political and spiritual impact of Western Christian engagement in the region. Save West Bank Christians Vulnerable People Project has launched the Save West Bank Christians campaign to support historic Christian communities facing displacement and hardship. Through direct aid, advocacy, and partnerships with local leaders, the campaign works to help families remain in their ancestral homeland and preserve the Christian presence in the Holy Land.

The Last Christian Town? Taybeh Under Threat | Fr. Bashar Fawadleh
2/19/2026

Bashar shares Taybeh’s ancient history and its deep connection to the time of Christ. Located near Jericho and Jerusalem, the town holds profound significance for Christianity. He also describes the severe challenges facing the community today.

As daily life becomes increasingly difficult, many Christian families are leaving. Today, only about 1,500 residents remain. This conversation is a sobering look at the struggle to preserve one of Christianity’s historic communities in the land of its birth. 🌍 Learn More & Support Jason Jones / VPP: • Vulnerable People Project (VPP): https://www.vulnerablepeopleproject.com • Jason’s Substack: https://thejasonjonesshow.substack.com • Instagram: @thevulnerablepeopleproject • X (Twitter): @Vulnerable_VPP
