In this urgent podcast episode, journalist and strategist Mike Burnard challenges Christians to move beyond political debates and respond with Christ-like compassion to Gaza’s humanitarian crisis. Key takeaways:
Starvation Over Arguments: Over 100,000 women and children in Gaza are literally starving to death—yet many Christians are still debating "who’s to blame" rather than helping.
The Horror of Starvation: Mike shares heartbreaking research on how starvation destroys bodies and minds, especially in children who "don’t understand why they’re hungry."
A Biblical Mandate: Jesus didn’t point fingers at Romans or scapegoats—He acted. Mike urges the church to stop divisive rhetoric and "open our hands" to suffering people.
Local Parallels: The same attitude of blame ("the government should fix it") plagues responses to poverty in our own communities.
Hope in Action: Learn about ministries like Jerusalem Evangelical Outreach bringing life to war zones—and how to support them.
Powerful Quote:
"People can say ‘it’s Hamas’ fault’ or ‘Israel’s fault’—I don’t care. I just want to help people. That’s what Christ would have done."
