So, you want to make a real difference in the world… but you don’t know where or how to begin.

As we’ll learn on today’s podcast, we can make a difference in the lives of others by simply asking, “How are you doing?” In a world where so many people are hurting, we should never underestimate the power of greeting every person with genuine care. It can save a life—even our own!

This week, host Yael Eckstein explores the Bible story of Joseph’s time in an Egyptian prison and how the simple act of greeting those around him—with sympathy and with understanding—changed his life, and ultimately, changed the lives of millions of people.

Each one of us, just like Joseph, can bring more of God’s light into the world and take care of those around us—and in this episode, we’ll discover how.

And listen to more of Yael’s Bible teachings on her new podcast, The Chosen People.

We are truly living in prophetic times as described in God’s Word, aren’t we? It began with the Book of Exodus, when God redeemed Israel from Egypt and promised to bring them home on “eagles’ wings.”

On today’s episode, host Yael Eckstein will explore how the Bible prophesied about the times we are in right now—and what this means for us in our personal and spiritual lives. As people of faith, we are called to be God’s partner in fulfilling biblical prophecy today, making this point in history such an exciting time to be alive!

Listen now, as the people of Israel prepare to celebrate Aliyah Day—and then learn more about aliyah, the prophetic work of bringing God’s people home to Israel.

“It has taken courage to birth these nations.”

These words are an enduring theme in the life and work of Bishop E.W. Jackson—a pastor, an attorney, a U.S. Marine, and a Christian friend of Israel. A proud American who also stands for the Jewish state, Bishop Jackson sat down recently with Yael Eckstein to discuss his own experiences and his thoughts on the ongoing violence being experienced not just by the people of Israel, but by Jewish people around the world.

Bishop Jackson’s own military service gives him some insight into the struggles Israel faces—defending herself on the battlefield and in the international media. But he shares with Yael his own commitment to standing for Israel now, just as when he was a Marine, “the stewardship of my country was in my hands.”

It’s this stewardship that these two friends in faith and fellowship discuss in this inspiring conversation that once again shows how Israel’s Christian friends are supporting her in her greatest time of need.
