Welcome to Inside the Epicenter Weekend Edition with New York Times bestselling author and Middle East expert Joel Rosenberg. This is a radio program of the Joshua Fund. Today we're featuring highlights from a message Joel delivered at Calvary Church in Aurora, Colorado. Joel explains why three years of war have created the most spiritually open environment for the gospel in Israel and the Muslim world in modern history — and then turns to Scripture, showing how God has always called ordinary, unqualified, even reluctant people like Nehemiah, Peter, Timothy, and Moses to do extraordinary things. He closes with a direct invitation for anyone listening to say yes to Jesus for the first time.
