On September 1st, I’m launching two new websites — ALL ISRAEL NEWS and ALL ARAB NEWS. Here’s why. (Please start following us now on Twitter and Facebook and let your friends know, too.)

ALL-ISRAEL-NEWS-launch

The number one question I’m asked these days, especially from Evangelical Christians, is this, “What news sites do you read – and trust – to know what’s happening in Israel and the Middle East and to truly understand what it all means?”

The good news: there’s actually quite a bit of useful reporting out there both from Christian and non-Christian sources. The challenge: most people don’t have the time, experience or discernment to know how to extract the useful from the worthless.

Add to this the rise of fake news – as well as so much anti-faith, anti-Christian, anti-Israel, anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim bias – in the modern, secular, mainstream media and it’s not surprising that Evangelicals are increasingly hungry for a reliable source of truthful reporting and sound analysis.

Therefore, after much prayer and planning, I’m very happy to let you know that my colleagues and I are launching two new websites on September 1st.

ALL ISRAEL NEWS and ALL ARAB NEWS will be “one-stop-shopping” news sites for anyone and everyone who wants to understand what’s happening in the Epicenter and why it matters. We’ll publish exclusive “news-maker” interviews, exclusive polls, original reporting, helpful context and analysis, as well as links to the most important and interesting news stories in the Israeli, Arab and regional press — all day, every day.

Truthful. Insightful. Fair. Free. And all from an Evangelical perspective and worldview.

  • I will serve as Editor-in-Chief, writing original stories and commentaries, and guiding our team to deliver a first-rate product.
  • We have hired a team of Israeli and Palestinian reporters, editors and web developers who are working hard to prepare for the launch.
  • We have recruited a great Board of Directors for NEAR EAST MEDIA – our U.S.-based 501c3 non-profit, non-partisan, Christian organization – and they are fully established and operational. 
  • We have also recruited two excellent Advisory Boards, one for each websites.
  • More on all this when we launch.

The countdown to launch day — Tuesday, September 1st — is on.

Tell your friends. Pray for us. And please join us when we go live. Thanks so much!
