In this episode, we sit down with Rev. Phil Pockras, who gives his testimony to encourage us in our continued efforts in Jewish evangelism.

David G. Whitla is professor of church history and director of the Theological Foundations for Youth program at the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Pittsburgh. Born in Scotland and raised in Northern Ireland, he emigrated to the United States in 2000. He taught high school world history and Bible before entering gospel ministry, serving as pastor of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of Southside Indianapolis. He received a history PhD from Queens University Belfast in 2019 and is the author of numerous essays, articles, and reviews, both popular and academic. He is married to June, and they have five children.

In this episode, Gregg sits down with David and discusses many of the theological considerations that have affected Jewish missions across the years, and particularly in his own denomination, the RPCNA.

In the podcast, David mentions several books:

Mission of Inquiry to Israel in 1839

Andrew Bonar and R.M. M’Cheyne, Mission of Discovery: The Beginnings of Modern Jewish Missionary Evangelism (Christian Focus, 2001)

Iain H. Murray, The Puritan Hope: A Study in Revival and the Interpretation of Prophecy. (Edinburgh: Banner of Truth, 1971).

General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, To the Children of Israel in All the Lands of Their Dispersion. (Edinburgh: Blackie & Sons, 1842).

Ward, Rowland S. “The Basis and Practice of Christian Mission to Jews, 1520-1860.” Confessional Presbyterian Journal 7 (2011): 99–110.

In this episode, Gregg and Stephen discuss how churches have drifted away from confessionalism, and have potentially opened themselves up to losing sight of many wonderful things that our forbears understood, including our sacred duty to the Jewish people.
