To minister mercy to the nations that rebelled at the Tower of Babel, the peoples that still defy and deny God today.

Christmas is the “most wonderful time of the year.” So why do we read about the death of children when we’ve just celebrated the incarnation of Resurrection Life itself? Jesus came down and became flesh to live among us to live our sorrow and open the door to everlasting joy.

The LORD has been expanding our tent pegs in 2024. We've added staff. We'll soon launch Bridge Builders Essentials and the Aleph Dinner and Discussion program. We've exhibited at big events, like the Anglican Church of North American Assembly and the Messiah Conference. We love to meet you all in person. We are moving the direction the Lord has called us. God wants us to build bridges with our Jewish neighbors, and we are filling up the toolbox for you. Gathering and preparing resources like Bridge Builders Essentials and the Aleph Dinner and Discussion program has a financial cost. As Director Emeritus Philip Bottomley reminds me, "The Lord pays for what he orders." But we also know that the Lord loves to use his saints to be conduits of his abundant provision. We are grateful for those of you who are regular givers. Thank you! You are integral partners. If you are not yet a financial partner, please prayerfully consider coming alongside us.

Jewish Media Review - September 2024. I will admit that I have war fatigue. I am tired. I am weary of the news, of the uncertainty, of the death. Yet, I’m just reading about it. I’m not living in a country at war like our CMJ Israel colleagues. Like the disciples at Gethsemane, I am tempted to sleep as someone suffers anguish nearby.
