Palestine/Israel: 2 Peoples, 3 Faiths

The April edition of Response magazine, the periodical of United Methodist Women, is entirely devoted to "Palestine/Israel: 2 Peoples, 3 Faiths." An article I wrote on Christian Zionisim is featured along with a resource list.

This publication is packed with information; it is focused and clear and rich in resource ideas. The contents are not on the web. Single copies are available for $2.50. Go to www.missionresourcecenter.org or call 800-305-9857. You can also write to the Mission Resource Center, 21 Profit Drive, Dallas, TX 75247.

The magazine supports the 2007-2009 mission study of United Methodist Women which is dedicated to Palestine and Israel. That study is available for $8.50. I have not reviewed the study, but it looks like a great addition to bibliographies.

Another new resource from Churches for Middle East Peace - www.cmep.org - is interesting and helpful. CMEP offers the Congressional Record of Support for Israeli-Palestinian Peacemaking (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=wbjg5ccab.0.dgwm5ccab.o96l7nbab.35&ts=S0267&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cmep.org%2Fdocuments%2FCongressional_Record.pdf).
