Julia Fisher talks to Jack Sara, principal of the Bethlehem Bible College. When talking about Israel and the situation between Jews and Arabs or Palestinians, it’s sadly a fact that we Christians living in the West often take sides with one people group against the other – but is this right or even helpful. I asked Jack to explain how he manages this problem with his students in Bethlehem, which is of course in the West Bank.
Our aim is to build bridges… To build bridges of understanding and support, in a spirit of reconciliation, between believers (both Jewish and Arab) in the Holy Land (Israel and the Palestinian Areas) and Christians worldwide.
