This conversation is a selected segment from a longer podcast with Chadd Wright of 3 of 7 Project, focused on Israel, America, and how Christians should respond. Watch the full episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loVDBiJAPBc&t=2158s

The question of Israel has become one of the most divisive topics in America—splitting conservatives, Christians, libertarians, families, churches, and political movements. But why does this small nation create such massive tension? Is the issue purely political, or is there something deeper happening beneath the surface?

In this conversation, John Lovell joins the discussion to wrestle through the Israel question from a Christian worldview. They talk about Israel’s place in Scripture, Romans 11, the difference between political Zionism and spiritual Zionism, America’s role in foreign policy, the war in Iran, the danger of hatred, and what it means to love your enemies without being naive.

This is not a simple conversation, and it is not a clean soundbite. It is a serious look at one of the hardest questions facing Christians and Americans today: How do we respond when the world demands we pick a side?

Topics include:
Israel and America, Christian response to Israel, Romans 11, spiritual warfare, Middle East conflict, Iran, America First foreign policy, political Zionism vs spiritual Zionism, Bible prophecy, conservative division, and how Christians should think about war, hatred, and national loyalty.
