With God On Our Side - Film Screening

Are you seeking to educate yourself and engage in meaningful dialogue on Palestine and Israel? 

Join us for a screening and conversation on the documentary 𝘞π˜ͺ𝘡𝘩 𝘎𝘰π˜₯ π˜–π˜― π˜–π˜Άπ˜³ 𝘚π˜ͺπ˜₯𝘦. This compelling film examines how certain theological beliefs have shaped Western perspectives on the region. It brings to light voices too often marginalized, especially those of Palestinian Christians, and asks whether there is a more biblically faithful way to pursue peace and justice for all.

The Tyndale Intercultural Ministries (TIM) Centre is committed to creating courageous and open spaces where Christian leaders can listen deeply, ask thoughtful questions, and wrestle with complex issues at the intersection of faith, justice, and intercultural engagement.

𝘞π˜ͺ𝘡𝘩 𝘎𝘰π˜₯ π˜–π˜― π˜–π˜Άπ˜³ 𝘚π˜ͺπ˜₯𝘦 (2010) takes a close look at the theology of Christian Zionism, which teaches that because the Jews are God’s chosen people, they have a divine right to the land of Israel. Aspects of this belief system have led some Western Christians to offer uncritical support for Israeli government policiesβ€”even those that privilege Jews at the expense of Palestiniansβ€”resulting in significant suffering among both Muslim and Christian Palestinians, and raising concerns about Israel’s long-term security.

The film challenges viewers to consider whether there is a biblical alternativeβ€”one that does not favor one people group over another but instead promotes justice, peace, and reconciliation for both Jews and Palestinians.
