A Catholic Understanding of Israel


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m joined by Father Andrew Beerman and Father Andrew Vogel, hosts of Catholics Unwrapped, for a contemplative conversation on the Catholic Church’s theology in relation to Christian Zionism.


What do we mean when we read the word “Israel” in Scripture—and how does that meaning differ from a modern nation-state? What does the Church mean by “chosen people,” and how should Christians understand that in modern times? Why does the Catholic Church not embrace Christian Zionism, and what are the deeper theological, historical, and ethical questions this raises for believers now?


Rather than offering easy answers, this discussion invites listeners into the mystery of Scripture, tradition, and faith—encouraging thoughtful reflection on how Christians are called to read, understand, and live these teachings today
