  • (230) Erin Molan: Why I Chose to Stand with Israel
    Apr 29 2026

    For Erin Molan, defending Israel after October 7 was not without consequences. The Australian media personality shares how taking that stand affected her career, deepened her faith, and clarified her sense of purpose.

    Pesach and Doug also address a growing point of tension: the backlash to a pride event near the Dead Sea, and how they respond to fellow believers who strongly support Israel, but feel conflicted about Israel's apparent celebration of the event.

  • (229) Dinesh D'Souza on Israel, Faith, and the Collapse of Trust in the West
    Apr 22 2026

    What's really driving the growing skepticism toward Israel—even among young conservatives?

    In this wide-ranging and urgent conversation, Pastor Doug Reed and Rabbi Pesach Wolicki sit down with bestselling author and public intellectual Dinesh D'Souza to unpack one of the most important cultural and spiritual shifts of our time.

    Together, they explore the collapse of trust in institutions, the rise of conspiracy thinking, and how both are reshaping attitudes toward Israel, faith, and the West itself. From biblical archaeology to replacement theology, from social media influence to the future of Christian support for Israel, this episode confronts the biggest questions facing believers today.

    Why are younger generations drifting away from long-held alliances?
    What role does theology play in modern politics?
    And is there still a path forward for a shared Judeo-Christian vision of truth and moral clarity?

    A bold, challenging, and deeply relevant conversation about faith, identity, and the future of Western civilization.

  • (228) The Battle for Israel—In Theology and in War
    Apr 15 2026

    Is Israel still central to God's plan—or has that role changed?

    In this wide-ranging episode, Pastor Doug Reed and Rabbi Pesach Wolicki take on a question that sits at the heart of modern Christianity. Beginning with Doug's recent article in The Christian Post, they explore whether the New Testament itself reinforces the enduring role of the Jewish people, and why that debate has become so urgent today.

    But this is not just a theological conversation.

    As tensions with Iran escalate, the discussion shifts from Scripture to strategy. Joined by military analyst Elliot Chodoff, they break down what is actually happening in the Middle East, what has been achieved on the ground, and how Iran views the conflict in ways that many in the West misunderstand.

    What emerges is a deeper realization: the question of Israel is not confined to ancient texts or abstract theology. It is playing out in real time, with real consequences.

    This episode connects belief and reality, asking what it truly means for Israel to matter - both in faith and in the world today.
