Micah Wood of Eagles Wings joins the Partnership Program to share his transformative journey of aligning heart and mind with God’s perspective on Israel and the Jewish people.

Engaged in full-time ministry, Micah gave little thought to Israel. Micah’s path shifted when a friend challenged him with one question: “Are you a Zionist?” His candid response—“No”—opened the door to a series of divine appointments that reshaped his understanding and ministry.
Join us to hear Micah’s journey with God as he opened his heart and mind to new revelation concerning Israel and the Jewish people. Hear how he is now guiding pastors on a similar path.

Sima Parsai, a dedicated medical professional and resident of the West Coast of the United States, joins us today to share her insights on the sentiments of the Iranian people regarding Israel, the Jewish people, and the ongoing war Israel has against terrorists.

Born in Iran and having fled with her family just before the fall of the Shah in 1979, Sima offers a deeply personal perspective rooted in her own experiences. She maintains close ties with the Iranian community and remains in contact with friends who still live in the country.
Through her stories, she sheds light on her and her compatriots’ views regarding Israel, the Jewish people, and the Iranian population suffering under the oppressive Islamic regime. Join us as we hear a firsthand account of life in Iran before the rise of the mullahs and gain a deeper understanding of the ongoing struggles faced by its people.

Learn about the heart of the Iranian people and their solidarity with Jews, and why.
