Defend Israel’s right to defend itself!


You and I, as evangelical Christians, are at the heart of U.S. support for Israel. As my late friend, Dr. Jerry Falwell, liked to say, “the Bible Belt in America is Israel’s only safety belt right now.”

Orthodox rabbi Daniel Lapin agrees. Since 1948, he notes, “Christian Evangelical strength in America has skyrocketed and paralleling it, so has American support for the Jewish state. America’s Bible belt has become Israel’s safety belt.”

Please make your voice heard now. Stand with Israel and call on leaders in Congress to do the same. Simply sign our petition and fax congressional leaders demanding Congress STAND WITH ISRAEL!

Some 10 years ago, my wife, Anita, and I were on assignment in Israel. We traveled to Jerusalem at a time of fraying U.S.-Israeli relations under President Barack Hussein Obama. At the time, he was our nation’s most hostile-to-Israel president ever — a label now worn by the White House’s current occupant, Joe Biden.

We arrived in Israel shortly after Obama stunned the Jewish state by calling for a return to its narrow and indefensible pre-1967 borders. Anita and I came to deliver a simple message to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: The American people strongly support Israel.

During our meeting with the prime minister, he asked us to help build relationships between Israel and American believers. We eagerly agreed.

Which is why I am asking you now to stand with the Jewish state today!

I have just returned from leading a group of young adults on a tour of the Holy Land, and I can tell you that the Jewish state needs our support more than ever.

Let me remind you that God promises to bless you and me as we defend and bless Israel. His promise to Abraham, the father of the Jewish people, remains every bit as true now as when He first gave it millennia ago ...

I will bless those who bless you, and he who dishonors you I will curse (Genesis 12:3a).

Now, when Israel’s very existence is in jeopardy, I urge you to bless — and firmly support — the modern-day nation of Israel!

Your voice, your prayers, and your financial support make a true difference on Israel’s behalf. May I count on your support now at this moment of urgent challenge for the Jewish state?

Your financial support now will make a real difference. Israel has few friends in the world... and none like the U.S. Please prayerfully consider supporting Christians in Defense of Israel by funding our work on behalf of the Jewish state and the Holy Land. Even a small recurring monthly gift would be greatly appreciated and incredibly helpful.


Thank you for your friendship and your support for Israel!
