Divestment Debate Strains Jewish Protestant Ties
The idea of divesting from companies tied to Israeli-occupied territories gains traction among U S Protestant groups, pitting Jewish and Christian leaders against each other. The Presbyterian Church USA moves to withdraw investments, Episcopal panels study the approach, and voices from Churches for Middle East Peace note fraught prospects for a two state solution amid rising frustration.

Understanding faith through Ramadan outreach and dialogue
Ken Garfield urges readers to visit a mosque, read about Islam, and invite speakers to explain the five pillars. He argues that learning another faith strengthens one’s own and promotes safety and respect for all students, calling for Ramadan as a beginning rather than a finale.

Back to the Bible Faith Over Sincerity and Truth
A sermon warns that sincerity alone does not validate doctrine and urges basing faith on Bible evidence rather than feelings. It cites Peter’s rebuke of Jesus, warns against Satan’s deception, and cites scriptures about faith coming from hearing the word of God. Readers are invited to respond via the Eisenhower Church in Odessa Texas.
