Open Doors for the Church in the Middle East

Israel and Palestine

The conflict in the middle east, between Palestine and Israel, is not a new story by any stretch of the imagination.

It is a conflict that has divided families, and incited brother against brother. The destruction and devastation caused by this conflict is unimaginable to those of us living far away in primarily peaceful Western countries. Open Doors USA recently issued a statement that makes it clear that the conflict has also caused a saddening division even amongst the body of Christ.

Twitter, Facebook and the likes, have proven to bring tidal-waves of “news” and information from formally tight-lipped parts of the world. While reporters are sometimes left at bay or on the border, those in the midst of the turmoil in Egypt were able to keep reporting far longer than years past.
