Episode 72 - Evangelicals and Zionism – How Did we Get Here?


Listen Later

Show Notes

We deal with the current conflict in Israel and Gaza by looking at the influence of religion, in the minds of the Israeli leaders & the settlers taking land in the West Bank and also in the minds of the Evangelical Zionist backers in the UK and US. 

The UK evangelical influence is more of historical interest but the US is very current and is influencing events now. Links etc:
