A Jewish reader wrote to us about Irena Sendler, the Catholic woman who rescued 2,500 Jewish children from the Warsaw Ghetto—then she added a haunting line: “Their lives were saved, but lost to Judaism.” Her words stopped me. If Jesus calls a suffering Jewish woman “a daughter of Abraham” and sets her free, what does it mean for you and me, as modern-day Esthers, when antisemitism rises again in our streets, schools, and churches?

After winning an NFL game in Madrid, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was asked where else he’d like to play overseas. His answer surprised reporters: “Shoot, it’d be pretty cool to go play in Jerusalem.” In a year when many try to push Israel out of international arenas, a Christian athlete’s desire to play in Jerusalem is a small but meaningful sign of favor.

When Israeli advocate Noa Tishby stepped up to the podium and declared, “Israel is here to stay. The people of Israel live,” she was not speaking as a politician, but as a daughter and granddaughter of pioneers who helped build the Jewish state. An actress and producer turned outspoken defender of Israel, Noa has paid a price for telling the truth in rooms that do not want to hear it. This week, we honor her as our Esther of the Week for her courage to say what many are afraid to say: the Jewish people are indigenous to the land of Israel, and their home is not up for debate.

Did Enoch really see heaven’s “org chart”? His ancient account describes angels working in ordered roles under God’s command—a universe not ruled by chaos, but by divine intention. Christians don’t treat the Book of Enoch as Scripture, but it can give us a fascinating glimpse into how ancient believers understood the unseen world and why the Bible’s original Hebrew language reveals even deeper layers of God’s design.

What does Iran’s terror network have to do with Venezuela, U.S. naval operations, and Israel’s security? This article connects the dots, showing why the alliance between the United States and Israel is more crucial than ever — and why believers must stay awake in prayer.

After two long years, the remains of Dror Or have been returned from Gaza, allowing his family and Kibbutz Be’eri to begin a new kind of mourning — one that finally includes a grave, and the comfort of knowing no more Be’eri hostages remain in the Strip.

This week’s HonestReporting analysis uncovers a troubling truth: the far right and far left are now united by the same antisemitic fantasy that Jews “control” society. Learn how this ancient hatred is resurfacing in modern rhetoric — and why believers must answer lies with truth.

An Orthodox Israeli director, Joseph Cedar, is releasing a new thriller, “Useful Idiots,” starring Meryl Streep and Sigourney Weaver—with Streep as a jaded Manhattan journalist who follows one record-breaking penthouse sale into a hidden world of power and enablers. It’s meant to be suspense, but it begs a deeper question: In a world of headlines and hashtags, who is shaping what we believe—and are we quietly being used, or slowing down to ask, “Lord, what is true?”

What would the world look like if modern Israel had never existed? This piece steps beyond the noise of today’s debates and explores why Israel matters biblically, morally, and practically — from God’s promises in Genesis to the medical and technological breakthroughs that save lives across the globe.

Shai Albrecht, an Orthodox Jewish mother and fitness influencer, found herself in Israel on October 7 and turned her platform into a lifeline for truth. From sheltering her children during the attack to confronting lies online, she stands as a modern-day Esther in a world hungry for courage.

Starship Bagel of Dallas stunned New Yorkers by taking home the “Best Bagel” title at New York BagelFest 2025, proving world-class bagels are being baked far beyond the five boroughs.

After surviving 738 days in Hamas captivity, Avinatan Or didn’t come out calling for revenge—he came out with four simple rules for staying human in the darkest place. In this short video, he explains how patience, finding common ground, rejecting destructive anger, and keeping the mind awake helped him hold on to his dignity and hope.

On the eve of their visit to the White House, recently freed hostages Ziv and Gali Berman shared a message filled with gratitude, urgency, and unshakeable resolve. The twins, kidnapped from Kibbutz Kfar Aza on October 7, 2023, and held for two years in Gaza, are among the 20 hostages released in last month’s ceasefire deal. Now, they are asking the world — and especially the United States — not to look away.

Mossad revealed this week that Hamas terror cells operating in Europe were armed, directed, and green-lit from Qatar — and possibly Turkey. As threats against Jewish communities rise worldwide, this confirmation underscores what Scripture has always told us: evil plots in secret, but God brings truth into the light.

Saudi jets, a UN “peace plan,” terror at a busy junction, winter tents in Gaza—this week’s Israel headlines tell a story very different from the soundbites here at home.
