“Why should I care about what’s happening in the Middle East when America is being shaken to her core? Because God has given us a great responsibility in the last days – to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to every person in every nation before He returns.” – Joel C. Rosenberg
“When I accepted Christ, my parents kicked me out of the house. As the time went by, over 25 years, I felt the Lord was softening their hearts toward the Lord. Then, one day they said to me, ‘We have looked at your life and now we know that what you have is the truth, and we want it.’ That day both my parents accepted the Lord.’” – An Israeli pastor

“We believe it is very important to be together, Jewish and Arab believers in Jesus. We meet for breakfast once a month with Arab and Jewish leaders. We do more worship and prayer times with Arabic and Jewish congregations. We had over 600 gathered together recently - It was very powerful.” – An Arab pastor
“We bring Arab and Jewish young adults together for a time of Bible study and worship. While language can be a barrier, we study in Hebrew but also worship in Hebrew and Arabic. We want all the kids to feel respected to worship in their own language” – An Israeli ministry worker.
“The mission of The Joshua Fund is to mobilize Christians to bless Israel and her neighbors in the name of Jesus, according to Genesis 12:1-3 – that is, according to the Abrahamic Covenant in which all families of the earth would be blessed through Abraham’s family, by the Messiah. Israel and her neighbors. For us, it’s not either/or….it’s both/and.” - Joel C. Rosenberg
“The Lord calls followers of Jesus to be ‘watchmen on the walls’ in a sense to this generation, according to Ezekiel 33. My friends, we must be faithful watchmen right now – especially in the Middle East.” – Joel C. Rosenberg
“From its very inception, The Joshua Fund, and every Epicenter Conference we have ever held has been about loving Israel and her neighbors. Blessing Israelis and Palestinians. Reaching Jews and Arabs with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Both/and….not either/or. And this conference was no exception.” – Joel C. Rosenberg
“At Epicenter Conference 2017, we invited three Jewish Israeli pastors and ministry leaders, and three Palestinian Arab pastors to help you step inside the story. Join us at epicenterconference.com where you will hear the encouraging and remarkable things that God is doing behind the headlines, out of view of the media to advance the Gospel in extraordinary ways.” – Joel C. Rosenberg
Join us in Jerusalem for an evening and a full day of prayer for the people in the Land of Israel. Featuring keynote speakers Joel C. Rosenberg, Anne Graham Lotz and Dr. Ronnie Floyd, you will learn firsthand how current Middle East events relate to the fulfillment of biblical prophecy.
Syria is currently home to the worst humanitarian crisis in world history. Hundreds of thousands have lost their lives, while millions have been pushed from their homes. The church of Jesus Christ has also suffered great loss and persecution during this horrific six-year conflict.
How many of you first came to Christ at a Christian camp or young people’s ministry gathering? Because this remains such an impactful moment for so many, The Joshua Fund continues encouraging and strengthening many ministry efforts in Israel that seek to bring young Israelis from believing families face to face with their own personal need for the Messiah.
Working with local partners on the ground, The Joshua Fund's Israeli team is currently providing food to 16 Distribution centers serving more than 2,500 families monthly

Amidst war and terrorism, some of our ministry partners serving in the Middle East are, by God’s grace, seeing a growing and unprecedented hunger for the Gospel.
Throughout the year, holiday-based outreaches provide many Israeli and West Bank believers with occasions to open their homes to neighbors and friends, and often provide a chance for the Word of God to be shared with those who don’t know the Lord personally.
