On July 19, Israel's Knesset members passed a law called the Nation-State Law. Since then the controversy surrounding this piece of legislation has been all over the news.

Khalil is a Palestinian Christian, born in the Gaza strip and is a Philos Project Fellow. Growing up, Khalil was taught that Israel and the West were responsible for the suffering of all Palestinians, and he grew to hate both. After the 2008 Gaza war, Khalil decided to move to the West Bank, where he was exposed to the true Christian faith. His life changed dramatically when he accepted Christ and started following His teaching. As a result of his conversion, Khalil started working to love the people who he’d grown up seeing as enemies: Israel and the West. Listen to his story today on Passages Voice!
