LimmudFest Nola 2023

For decades, the evangelical world was associated with the Moral Majority, missionizing, and right-wing politics — the opposite side of the aisle from the Jewish community. But a pro-Israel awakening, a newfound appreciation for the Jewish people, and a commitment to fighting antisemitism have taken hold among evangelicals while more mainstream churches have adopted the Palestinian narrative, leaving many in the Jewish community to wonder who our true partners are. Larry Brook has been covering the phenomenon of Christian Zionists in the South since the 1990s and will provide insights, details of major changes in the Christian world that few in the Jewish community are aware of, amusing anecdotes, and thoughts on where this relationship is headed.
