A Jew and a Gentile Discuss episodes:

April 16, 2024Is Standing with Israel Safe?
It was easy to stand with Israel the week following October 7, but what about now, after six months of a controversial and very complex war? In this episode, Carly and Ezra discuss the environment we’re in today, where standing with Israel can evoke all kinds of responses. They talk about how it’s possible to both stand with Israel and not agree with everything the State of Israel does. You’ll hear about:
Stories of confrontation and the temptation to hide one’s support of Israel or Jewish identity
How, after six months of war, people may be losing clarity on where to stand
Why it will never be easier to stand with Israel than it is today
If the Bible indicates that “standing with Israel” could possibly, one day, be unto the death
How the point of making outward declarations of standing with Israel should be more about opening up a conversation than stating your stance

Along the Way
Along the way, you’ll also hear about:
How a “this is true, and this also is true” approach can diffuse a confrontation
How standing with Israel doesn’t mean whitewashing or ignoring wrongdoing
How only God sees what it takes for us to turn to Him
How being “grafted in,” as Gentile Believers, puts you in a familial relationship with the Jewish people
An encouragement for Jewish believers in Jesus to “stay Jewish”
An encouragement to Jewish listeners – believers in Jesus or not – that difficult times are maybe the best times for us to say we believe in God and that He’s actually chosen us to be a blessing to everyone else
An encouragement to Christians about the importance of not standing with Israel naively or in ignorance

April 02, 2024Why Won’t Israel Agree to a Ceasefire?
In this episode of A Jew and A Gentile Discuss, Carly and Ezra clarify some of the complexities of a ceasefire agreement and why Israel hasn’t agreed thus far. They challenge listeners to read multiple news sources to get the whole picture because a single source gives only a single perspective. They also offer some concrete ways to pray for Israel. Here’s some of what they cover in this discussion:
The fickle nature of the news cycle that has moved on from the Israel war, but Israel and the Middle East are still very much in the thick of it
Misleading headlines that don’t indicate the complexities of the war and what Israel is dealing with
The difference between a ceasefire and a truce
What’s breaking down in the recent ceasefire talks with Hamas
Four specific things to pray regarding this war

Along the Way
Along the way, you’ll hear about:
The root of anti-Semitism
Wait, what? Israel and Hamas were actually already in a ceasefire on October 7?
The humanitarian crisis in Gaza before October 7 – where did all that aid go?
How the tragic plight of the Gazans and the fight against the terrorist regime Hamas are separate issues in this very complex war
Who this war is not against
How both societies – Israel and Gaza – are traumatized right now, and both deserve our compassion and prayers
The abundant opportunities for the Gospel in both Israel and Gaza right now

March 19, 2024Practical Ways to Fight Anti-Semitism
Anti-Semitic incidents have dramatically increased since Hamas violently attacked Israel on October 7. In this episode of A Jew and A Gentile Discuss, Carly and Ezra talk about some ways to combat anti-Semitism that you may not immediately think of. They discuss the origins of anti-Semitism and how, at its root, lies a spiritual matter. They also discuss:
Anti-Semitism isn’t new. Anti-Semitic spirits revealed in the Bible from Pharaoh to Haman and all the way to today’s terror group, Hamas
Who the biblical kingdom of Persia is today
What we can do about anti-Semitism
How to explain your faith and desire for your Jewish friend to know Jesus

Along the Way
Along the way, they’ll also discuss things like:
The Holocaust started as an idea that turned into propaganda
The organized Church’s persecution of Jewish people throughout history – whether or not those people were truly followers of Jesus – has left the Jewish people with a lot to overcome about Jesus
The fear of “Jewish fragility”
Where “blessing Israel” and “Christian Zionism” often fall short
Understanding that talking to Jewish people about Jesus is not anti-Semitic
Being careful of your language when sharing the Gospel with Jewish people. They’re not converting to another religion; they’re following the Jewish Messiah sent to the house of Israel as promised by the Hebrew Scriptures
The importance of learning to recognize subtle forms of Replacement Theology. Jewish people do not have a separate way to God apart from faith in Yeshua (Jesus)

March 05, 2024Israel: Are We in the End Times?
In this episode of A Jew and A Gentile Discuss, Carly and Ezra continue their conversation about the End Times and where Israel fits in regarding Bible prophecy. They dive into the Christian and Jewish mindsets toward the Last Days and challenge listeners to rethink a “for-Christians-only” understanding. The discussion turns to the difficult things Israel experienced on October 7, how these events may have caused some listeners to disengage with God and the importance of finding your way back to re-engaging with Him. They talk about:
What’s meant by the End Times and what Christians think of when they hear it
How the End Times isn’t just a Christian thing but first appears in the Hebrew Scriptures
Hard things to come in the End Times
The Christian response to Israel’s suffering
The mixed reality of both grief and hopeful anticipation contained in the package of the End Times

Along the Way
Along the way, Carly and Ezra also discuss:
The challenge to make room in our hearts for what Jesus feels about Israel
What most Christians think of when they think of the period approaching the End Times
The birth pangs, “beginning of sorrows,” that Jesus talked about regarding the Last Days
Jesus’s love in preparing His followers for the future
A challenge to Jewish people who think the idea of the End Times is only a Christian concept to look again at the Hebrew Scriptures, at Moses and the prophets
How the atrocities of October 7 can cause confusion, sideline our faith and make us disengage with God, and the encouragement to check back in and re-engage with the Lord

February 20, 2024The End Times – A Jewish or Christian Idea?
Hamas’ October 7 massacre in Israel and the war since sparked questions about the End Times. Many people have written in, asking, “Is this the End?” or “Is this the Tribulation?” Before getting into that in our next episode, today, Carly and Ezra lay the groundwork by discussing where the concept of the End Times comes from. Did Jesus introduce it, or is it actually a Jewish thing?
In this episode of A Jew and A Gentile Discuss, the conversation includes:
What it was about October 7th that pushed the End Times button for us
Wait, the End Times is mentioned in Genesis?
The Song of Moses and if it has a place in Jewish tradition
Why Christians don’t talk much about the Song of Moses
Along the Way
You’ll also hear about:
Jewish thought about the Tribulation
Where Christians can misstep regarding the End Times
The Hebrew phrase vital to understanding certain Old Testament Scriptures
A part of the Torah that’s completely overlooked in the Jewish community
Two things we need to do if we want to be students of the Word on this subject
If Gentile Believers are grafted into the promises of God for Israel, are they also grafted into Israel’s difficulties?
The importance of Christians being prepared to engage with Jewish people who are confused about the difficulties they, as a people, will face and the hopeful message of the Bible

October 20, 2023Israel Update | What’s Really Happening Over There?
In this special off-season episode of A Jew and A Gentile Discuss, Carly and Ezra bring clarity to the tragic events of the last two weeks in Israel and Gaza. They discuss many questions people are asking about what’s going on, where this sudden attack came from, who Hamas and other players are, Israel’s response, and the needs in Israel right now.
It’s been about two weeks since more than 1,000 terrorists invaded Israel and committed horrific murders and assaults on innocent Israelis and others in the south of Israel, plus taking some 200 hostages into Gaza. Rockets from Hamas in Gaza are still flying toward Israel, and Israel is responding with powerful air strikes to eliminate further threats from Hamas.
Carly and Ezra discuss:
What led up to the events of October 7
Whether Israel did something to provoke the attack on October 7
Why people in Israel are calling this the Simchat Torah War, and if Hamas knew their attack was on a Jewish holiday
The players involved in all of this, who’s joining in the conflict and who’s latching on to it
Hamas’ stated purpose as an organization and how it affects this war
The “Israel had this coming” response some are having
What the Bible says about all that’s going on
Is this World War III? Is it the beginning of the End Times?
How this is a wake-up call for Christians
What we’re hearing from our friends and ministry connections there in Israel
The needs the people in Israel are facing and how we can help
Along the Way
Along the way, you’ll also learn about:
The key element of radical Islamic terrorism in this conflict and the importance of not vilifying all Palestinians, Arabs, Gazans
The spiritual war underlying all of this
How a lot of Christians are being forced to examine what it really means to “stand with Israel”
Why Israel’s response is not a quid pro quo
Why Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu had to say, “Hamas is done”
The call for Christians to take the issue of Israel and the Jewish people out of the “deal with it later” box
Great opportunities for the Gospel in Israel right now
