With producer Scott celebrating his son's wedding, this week we present a special lecture by Pesach. Delivered at a symposium at Canada Christian College in Toronto, Pesach's talk explores the challenge of adjusting our theological positions in light of historical changes, while still respecting the great thinkers who came before us.

Doug and his wife, Sam, make a big decision to pull their kids from public school, and to home school them instead. What's wrong with public school? Are they inviting social problems into their kids' lives? What are the potential benefits and dangers of public schools? Why not just enroll in private school instead? And what's the Bible's viewpoint on home schooling? Pesach and special guest Lisa Nehring of True North Academy dig into what drove them to this decision, and encourage Sam and Doug to share some of the hard conversations that led them to this important step.

If you care about your kids' education - even if you are determined not to make any changes - you won't want to miss this thought-provoking, enlightening, and fun conversation.

This week Pesach sits down with Prof. Tim Yoder of Dallas Theological Seminary and Dr. Brian Gamel of Truett Seminary, two of America's leading Christian institutions of higher learning. Tim and Brian are in Israel touring the country with a group of Christian academics, led by Pesach. They reflect on their trip to Israel, the encounter with the Jewish people, and the theological implications of the changing relationship between our faiths at this time in history.

Pesach interviews Stuart Force, father of US combat veteran Taylor Force, who was murdered in Israel by Palestinian terrorists. Stuart tells the story of Taylor's murder, the campaign to create and pass the Taylor Force Act into US law, and about the new lawsuit being brought against the Biden Administration for its violations of it. But first, Pesach shares some thoughts on the rebirth of the trait of Jewish courage over the past century.

Doug and Pesach catch up with a brief chat about Doug's recent weight loss success before introducing another talk from the recent symposium on Israel at Regent University, organized by Pesach last month. Michele Bachmann, Dean of the Robertson School of Government at Regent University, delivered a fascinating message about the history of the founding of Israel, and how history could have been different had the nations kept their promises to the Jewish people.

Doug and Pesach sit down with author and Bible study teacher, Traci Rhoades. They discuss Traci's writing and teaching, which aims to challenge people of faith to look outside their own traditions to find meaning and growth in the variety of paths to God. As Traci explains, exploring a variety of traditions expands and enriches our faith journeys and only makes us stronger believers.

From her time in the US Congress to her current position as Dean of the Robertson School of Government at Regent University, Michele Bachmann has been one of Israel's most visible and outspoken supporters for decades. In this episode, she tells the story of her first visit to Israel as a teenager shortly after the Yom Kippur War and passionately shares her heart for the Jewish people and the State of Israel. (And you don't want to miss her comments on the current state of US public education.)

(With Easter and Passover on this week's calendar, we're proud to rerelease this classic episode from December, 2021. Pesach and Doug will be back next week with a brand new episode.)

In recent decades, African-American - Jewish cooperation has been undermined by a deliberate campaign to attack this long-standing alliance. How did it happen? What can be done about it? What is unique about the African - Jewish relationship? Doug and Pesach are joined by Pastor Dumisani Washington, author of Zionism & the Black Church and founder of the Institute for Black Solidarity with Israel, for a fascinating conversation.

After first catching up after their recent travels, Doug and Pesach welcome Josh Reinstein, Director of the Knesset Christian Allies Caucus and President of the Israel Allies Foundation. Josh explains the power of building alliances with believing Christian legislators in houses of government all over the world. With Israel Allies Caucuses in 52 countries (and counting), the Israel Allies Foundation has become one of the leading organizations promoting the cause of Israel. And don't miss Josh's important comments about the recent hoopla surrounding supposed anti-Christian legislation in Israel!

On Thursday, March 23, Regent University hosted a symposium entitled The Theology of Land: Why is a specific land important to God's universal purposes? Pesach organized the symposium in cooperation with the Regent School of Divinity. With Pesach and Doug on the road this week, Pesach gives a brief intro to the remarkable talk delivered at the symposium by Professor Joshua Berman of Bar Ilan University. Rabbi Berman uncovers a comprehensive Biblical political philosophy revolving around the relationship of the people of Israel to their land... and he has a powerful lesson for Americans as well!
