In this episode, Simone Rizkallah sits down with Dr. Gerry McDermott to discuss his influential book Israel Matters: Why Christians Must Think Differently about the People and the Land. Together, they explore:
Why many Christians misunderstand Israel and the promises of God, the persistence of supersessionism (replacement theology) and why it matters for today, Biblical foundations for Israel’s enduring role, including Genesis 12:3 and Galatians 6:16, and insights from French Roman Catholic–turned–Russian Orthodox priest Lev Gillet and his unique perspective on Israel and the Church.
Dr. McDermott argues that Christians cannot fully understand their own faith—or their mission in the world—without grappling with the continuing role of Israel, both the people and the land.
