About

Israel in the News features timely news stories and on-site reporting on a variety of topics related to Israel and the Jewish people. You’ll also hear weekly commentary from those with an on-the-ground vantage point in the Holy Land, including Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, founder of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (The Fellowship), Yael Eckstein (The Fellowship’s Senior Vice President), and other Fellowship staff. The show presents listeners with up-to-date reports on what is happening in Israel and the Middle East, and addresses other topics that are of significance to the Holy Land and the Jewish people. Through this weekly broadcast, which is now aired on nearly 1,500 stations in the U.S. and abroad, The Fellowship hopes to increase positive public awareness and knowledge about Israel and counter the mainstream media’s often negative view of Israel and her people.
