After studying over the past two weeks how God’s physical manifestation dwelled with His Chosen People, we conclude our 3-part series on God’s glory by studying Jesus, God’s physical presence who dwelled among humanity. After God’s substance left the Temple before its destruction and went out through the Mount of Olives, Jesus came to Earth and fulfilled many prophecies that validate His divinity. Believers await the day when Jesus will return to the Mount of Olives, the same place from which He rode on a donkey to the Temple and from which He ascended back into heaven, making it clear that He is God’s glory, our greatest joy!

As Christians, we praise God for His glory—but what exactly is God’s glory? In part 2 of our series on God’s glory, His physical substance, we take a look at a healthy fear of and love for it through two of King David’s interactions with the Lord: 1) bringing the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem and 2) seeking to build the Temple. David learned memorable lessons about how to revere God’s glory and why God chose to dwell with humanity, and so can we!

We often praise God for and speak about His incomparable glory. But do you really know what His glory is? Chris kicks off a 3-week series on God’s glory beginning in the book of Exodus when the glory of God physically appeared before Moses and dwelled with the Israelites. In His great love and mercy for the Israelites, God made a way to dwell in His glory with sinful humanity. Listen to this week’s show to understand what God’s glory is and how we can approach our Lord of glory!

Why does Israel face tremendous hostility from its neighbors? The answer runs much deeper than politics. Chris Katulka gives a clear picture of Israel’s enemies as he discusses his article “Israel’s Never-Ending Struggle” from our latest issue of Israel My Glory magazine with Steve Conover this week. From Hamas and Hezbollah to Iran and Lebanon, Israel has no shortage of oppressors. But Israel will always have hope because God promised to preserve Israel and bring lasting peace—and God’s Word never fails!

Last week we studied examples from Jesus’ life that demonstrate that He was undeniably a Zionist. But in light of Jesus’ death and resurrection, can we still consider Him a Zionist today? To answer this question, Chris takes a look at the disciples’ final question to Jesus: “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” (Acts 1:6). Jesus’ answer is the key to evaluating His case as a Zionist. Enjoy the conclusion of our 2-part series on Jesus and Zionism!

As anti-Zionism spreads throughout the world, threatening to separate the Jewish people from their ancestral homeland, Christians are faced with an important question about their faith: Was Jesus a Zionist? In part 1 of our series answering this question, Chris digs into the Gospels to consider what the connection between the land of Israel and the Jewish people meant to our Savior. As we examine God’s promises to Israel concerning its land, you’ll understand why Jesus was a Zionist in word and deed and be encouraged to live as an unashamed Zionist too!

The creation of the State of Israel in 1948 was truly a miracle. But how does a nation starting with almost nothing become prosperous? The story behind its journey is fascinating! Chris teaches a captivating history lesson on the growth of the State of Israel on this week’s show. As you learn the fine details about the fledgling nation’s refugee, housing, and economic crises, you’ll see how God used extraordinary people and programs to develop the reborn nation that His Chosen People call home!
