Over these past months at various times you have been invited to join me, Roger Wambold, Director of Hebrew Christian Fellowship, for an informal conversation about matters related to Israel, the Jewish people, and how they fit into God’s plan and purpose for the world as revealed in His Word, the Bible.

Loosely modeled after President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s (FDR’s) “Fireside Chats” in his radio addresses to the American people from 1933 to 1944 during the Great Depression and World War II, these talks have a “Jewish flavor” (read that “Bagel-side”) to them.

In this eleventh “Bagel-side Chat” I focus on the example of the Ten Boom Family in the Netherlands during the terrible time of the Holocaust and its connection to what lies ahead for the Jewish people as foretold by the Old Testament prophets and Jesus Himself in the Olivet Discourse.  

In this present time when so many nations and individuals have turned against the State of Israel and the Jewish people, it is especially important to ponder how Jesus would have us respond in practical ways to the circumstances and needs of “His brethren.”

So, settle in with a beverage and a bagel with a “shmear” for this eleventh “Bagel-side Chat” entitled, “Corrie’s Tree and Me.”
