THE TERRORIST MASSACRE COMMITTED BY HAMAS AGAINST INNOCENT ISRAELIS ON OCTOBER 7, 2023 BROUGHT GREAT TRAUMA TO THE STATE OF ISRAEL.

BUT IT ALSO HAS BROUGHT GREAT CLARITY. 

It is this clarity that tells us we must try something NEW. 

It is this clarity that tells us Israel must plan its future on its own and not obsess about what others think. 

And it is this clarity that compels us to go back to basics — to return to the biblical values and divine covenants that unite the Jewish people.

It is this clarity that has inspired David Friedman, former US Ambassador to Israel and bestselling author of SLEDGEHAMMER, to write and lead a new movement: 

ONE JEWISH STATE

The Last, Best Hope to Resolve the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict.

One of the leading architects of the historic Abraham Accords, David Friedman explains why in these turbulent and dangerous times, the simple phrase of three words – ONE JEWISH STATE – must be the guideline for Israel and the world’s collective future.

Each word of ONE JEWISH STATE is deeply instilled with meaning:

ONE: There is only ONE country earmarked for the Jewish people; ONE. There are 49 Muslim countries, and many Christian, Buddhist, and Hindu countries, but only ONE Jewish State.         

JEWISH: This Jewish State is exactly that – JEWISH. It is the place where Jewish history was born, where Jewish values were created and where more Jews live than anywhere else. It is situated on the land given to the Jewish people by God in the words of the Holy Bible.

STATE: Israel is not just a place; it is a country with sovereignty over its land and responsibility for its inhabitants. Today that sovereignty has been called into question by the nations of the world and even by some within Israel. But Israel cannot be Jewish without sovereignty over the places that make it Jewish. 

Friedman proposes a goal and a path, with God’s help, for Israel to have complete sovereignty over all its biblical homeland – in a just manner that brings peace, prosperity, and essential human dignity to ALL of Israel’s inhabitants. In ONE JEWISH STATE he will explore:

• The History of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
• The True History of Jews and Muslims in the Disputed Territories
• Past, Present & Future Legal Issues
• Prior Proposals, Peace Plans and So-Called “Solutions,” and Why They ALL Failed
• Why Israel has Succeeded as a Regional Superpower While its Arab Neighbors Have Failed
• Palestinian Tribalism and the Creation of a Nationalist Movement
• Religious and Biblical Issues, Conflict and Agreement
• Palestinian and Muslim Leaders and Goals for Their Peoples
• Geographic and Security Considerations for ALL
• Hamas and the Gaza Strip – Insoluble for Now
• American Evangelicals and Their Influence

Ambassador Friedman's book persuasively explains the many reasons why  in this massive world there MUST remain room for ONE JEWISH STATE.

THE DEFINITIVE BIOGRAPHY OF THE FIRST AMERICAN POPE

The Life, Teachings and Leadership Qualities of Pope Leo XIV.

From New York Times bestselling author and noted Catholic historian Dr Paul Kengor: A portrait of Robert Francis Prevost, his background and life, theological beliefs and teachings, relationship with his predecessors and fellow cardinals and clergy, and rise to become the 267th elected Pontiff and first American Pope, and the challenges he will face and how he is likely to lead the Catholic Church, including interviews with Catholic and papal experts.

Dr Kengor has focused much of his work on Ronald Reagan, faith and the presidency, conservative politics, the Cold War, Communism, and Catholicism, and he will bring his own vast knowledge and expertise, and exclusive interviews with Catholic and Papal experts to his biography of Pope Leo XIV. As the Editor of The American Spectator, executive director and chief academic fellow at the Institute for Faith & Freedom, professor of political science at Grove City College, and author of over twenty books, including: A Pope and a President, God and Ronald Reagan, and The Divine Plan, Dr Kengor’s POPE LEO XIV: THE FIRST AMERICAN PONTIFF will be the definitive biography of Robert Francis Prevost and his likely impact on the Catholic Church and place in the history of Christianity and the world.

GIVE, GAIN, AND GROW YOUR WEALTH FOR GOD’S KINGDOM

Discover what the Bible actually says about money and unlock the financial principles God designed for His people.

In this groundbreaking book, financial expert and ministry leader Aaron DeHoog reveals the Biblical blueprint for achieving Abundant Prosperity—not simply to accumulate wealth, but to advance God's Kingdom "on earth as it is in Heaven."

Research shows Christians who follow the Biblical financial principles inside this book are three times wealthier than the average American. Yet most believers have never been taught these transformative truths. CALLED TO PROSPERITY: GIVE, GAIN, AND GROW YOUR WEALTH FOR GOD’S KINGDOM bridges this gap, showing how God commands us to:

• GIVE with purpose and joy—unlocking Heaven's floodgates
• GAIN through meaningful work that creates value for others
• GROW your resources through wise investments

Drawing from 2,350 Biblical verses on money and his own journey from bankruptcy to abundance, DeHoog provides practical steps to build lasting wealth while making a Kingdom impact. You'll discover why tithing is just the beginning, how to invest with confidence, and the surprising ways Biblical characters like Daniel, Boaz, and Joseph used their prosperity.

CALLED TO PROSPERITY is NOT about getting rich quick—it is about becoming the faithful steward God designed you to be, multiplying your resources like the servants in Jesus' parable who doubled their talents.

Are you ready to stop burying your talents and start experiencing the financial abundance God intended for you?
