This program follows the production team to Israel as they travel around creating new programs with our new Bible teachers, Joshua and Caleb (the Bearded Bible Brothers). They were filming an episode when sirens sounded as Hamas began its attack on October 7th. Avi Lipkin, an old friend of this ministry, gives his reaction.

  • 00:33 David Hart: We are so glad you've joined us today for this
  • 00:35 special edition of "Our Jewish Roots."
  • 00:37 We are the Harts and we also have the Colson Brothers,
  • 00:40 the Bearded Bible Brothers.
  • 00:42 You guys are home now in Dallas, you've been in Israel.
  • 00:46 Things have been a little different there for you guys as
  • 00:48 you were recording there and filming, yes?
  • 00:51 Joshua Colson: It's not typical that you start off with
  • 00:52 the intent to film a series and war breaks out but that's what
  • 00:55 happened to us in Israel this time.
  • 00:56 David: I know.
  • 00:58 Kirsten Hart: I was gonna say, we're so thankful that you
  • 00:59 are on this side of the ocean, you're back with your families.
  • 01:03 Obviously, we have so many families in Israel that didn't
  • 01:05 have that opportunity just to come home and be safe in their
  • 01:10 beds once again but we're really, really thrilled that you
  • 01:12 and our whole production crew, you're back home.
  • 01:17 David: I know you have so many stories that we could go on
  • 01:19 for hours, but right now we're gonna talk about kind of what's
  • 01:22 going on with this next series, or actually this program today.
  • 01:25 What's going on?
  • 01:27 Caleb Colson: Well, for those who were on social media,
  • 01:29 we had quite a lot happen and we wanna cue you
  • 01:31 in our television audience.
  • 01:33 So take a look at how things went down on the day
  • 01:35 of the attack October 7.
  • 01:38 ♪♪♪
  • 01:47 Caleb: And here we are today in modern Israel.
  • 01:49 Behind me is the second largest mosque in all of the country.
  • 01:53 The first is Al-Aqsa Mosque.
  • 01:55 And though it's peaceful right now Josh, you hear the birds
  • 01:58 chirping, it's Shabbat, elsewhere in Israel around
  • 02:01 the Gaza Strip hundreds of rockets are being fired
  • 02:04 off into peaceful Israeli villages and they're
  • 02:06 going into bomb shelters.
  • 02:08 I find it heartbreaking that--
  • 02:09 [siren wails]
  • 02:15 Joshua: Hey everybody, this is Joshua.
  • 02:16 Caleb: And I'm Caleb, I hope you can hear us over
  • 02:18 the loud sirens behind us.
  • 02:20 Joshua: We are here in Jerusalem, we've been filming
  • 02:21 our latest series and the sirens are going off in the street,
  • 02:23 we can hear explosions.
  • 02:25 We know if you've been following the news in America right now,
  • 02:28 it's in the middle of the night but it's the morning
  • 02:29 of Shabbat here in Israel.
  • 02:31 And that explosion you just heard of the rockets that are
  • 02:33 going off in the country right now.
  • 02:35 Guys, right now, pray for Israel, pray for Jerusalem,
  • 02:38 pray for the border of the Gaza strip.
  • 02:40 Everywhere in this country where men and women and children are
  • 02:42 potential victims, we need y'all guys to pray for them right now.
  • 02:45 Caleb: Guys, remember,
  • 02:46 [speaking in Hebrew]
  • 02:48 We pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
  • 02:49 We know peace will finally come when Yeshua rules
  • 02:52 and reigns on the throne.
  • 02:53 Right now there is contention, right now there is strife
  • 02:55 because of other gods that demand murder and death in order
  • 03:00 to make their access to heaven.
  • 03:02 But our God already died to give us life so that we can be with
  • 03:04 him even today in paradise.
  • 03:07 That's why we're not afraid that's why a bomb just went
  • 03:09 off just over that street.
  • 03:11 We know where our future is and it is secure.
  • 03:13 And if you don't know that security, then you need to meet
  • 03:16 Yeshua Hamashiach, Jesus the Messiah today.
  • 03:20 Joshua: There you see rocket trails overhead
  • 03:23 from rockets that flew by.
  • 03:25 We are in the outskirts of the city of Jerusalem.
  • 03:29 Sirens are just going off.
  • 03:31 Oh here they go again and we're still hearing bombs going off.
  • 03:47 Caleb: All right guys, we made it back to our hotel.
  • 03:49 Everybody's forcing us off the road we can't film and I know
  • 03:52 the streets of Jerusalem.
  • 03:53 We got to a hotel we're gonna film eventually, but a rocket
  • 03:56 just hit nearby so they're forcing us into a bunker
  • 03:59 or a bomb shelter so.
  • 04:07 Joshua: I'm very much used to being in these types of
  • 04:09 situations in other countries but I'm used to being in the
  • 04:11 very front of everything.
  • 04:13 When the sirens go off they usher everybody into bomb
  • 04:15 shelters, it's quiet in here except for the sound of that
  • 04:18 explosion that you hear and the sound of other sirens.
  • 04:24 [siren wails]
  • 04:29 ♪♪♪
  • 04:38 Caleb: Well, we were about to start filming again on the roof
  • 04:41 of our hotel, now they're sending us to a shelter again.
  • 04:45 We'll get everything filmed.
  • 04:47 We have three days left, no problem.
  • 04:49 Just a lot of rockets.
  • 04:57 Joshua: They're forcing us into the bomb shelter in the hotel.
  • 04:59 Everything's full, so they're taking us to a different one.
  • 05:02 I don't want to go, I want to be out there, but you know.
  • 05:11 male: Go inside guys, let's go, let's find a spot.
  • 05:13 Caleb: All right we'll find a spot to film each other.
  • 05:17 Here's Clayton and our crew, Bill, our DP,
  • 05:21 you should all know Josh by now.
  • 05:27 ♪♪♪
  • 05:36 Joshua: Hey everybody.
  • 05:38 If you saw our previous video you know we were out in the
  • 05:40 streets of Jerusalem in front of the second largest mosque in
  • 05:42 Israel filming our latest series that's about to come up when
  • 05:44 rockets and sirens started going off.
  • 05:47 Everybody has been ushered into the inside.
  • 05:51 Continue to pray.
  • 05:52 The atrocities that are happening along
  • 05:53 the Gaza strip and the border and getting into
  • 05:55 the interior of Israel is horrific.
  • 06:10 Yeshua is the name of the Lord, Yeshua is the name of the Lord,
  • 06:15 Yeshua is the name of the Lord, Yeshua is the name of the Lord,
  • 06:21 Yeshua is the name of the Lord, Yeshua is the name of the Lord,
  • 06:27 Yeshua is the name of the Lord.
  • 06:34 Joshua: Hey everybody, I'm Joshua.
  • 06:35 Caleb: And I'm Caleb.
  • 06:36 Joshua: We're really excited today.
  • 06:38 We have been on the ground here for almost two weeks.
  • 06:40 We've been bringing you updates as we have been available about
  • 06:42 what is happening here from a perspective of on the ground.
  • 06:45 We have a special treat right now because we have the expert
  • 06:48 with us, and we wanna give you all the information that we know
  • 06:51 you wanna have so that you can pray and support Israel in the
  • 06:53 way that it's gonna make a difference now.
  • 06:55 Caleb: Now, this is Avi Lipkin.
  • 06:57 Avi, you are a friend of a ministry going back
  • 06:59 to the days of Zola Levitt.
  • 07:01 Avi Lipkin: 1992. Caleb: 1992.
  • 07:04 Avi: How many years? That's 30 years ago.
  • 07:06 Joshua: That is 31 years ago.
  • 07:07 Caleb: We remember watching you when we were young.
  • 07:09 We used to watch Zola Levitt all the time.
  • 07:11 Joshua: We've been talking with people in the streets and
  • 07:13 one of the comments that I've heard from multiple people,
  • 07:14 is that this attack feels like the 9/11 to Israel.
  • 07:19 Avi: The attack by Gaza?
  • 07:20 Joshua: The attack by Gaza, it feels like the 9/11 of Israel.
  • 07:23 The questions that they have are, I heard this,
  • 07:25 "If I bend down on the Temple Mount to tie my shoe I'll be
  • 07:28 surrounded within minutes by people pointing guns."
  • 07:30 But somehow all of these insurgents have got across
  • 07:32 the Gaza Strip undetected by the IDF.
  • 07:35 Where was the IDF? Where is Israel during this?
  • 07:38 Why don't you give us some insight about the severity of
  • 07:40 this attack and what it really means for the country of Israel.
  • 07:43 Avi: Ehud Barak who was also commander of the Army, he was
  • 07:46 chief of staff of the Army.
  • 07:47 He was also defense minister, he was also Prime Minister.
  • 07:50 And one thing that really has been proven stupid, he said,
  • 07:55 "I'm gonna make the Israeli army small but smart."
  • 07:58 So he made the Israeli army small but stupid.
  • 08:03 So that's one of the reasons why this is happening now.
  • 08:05 Caleb: Really.
  • 08:06 Avi: Any normal country has to have a strong army.
  • 08:08 When you're dealing with 1.5 billion Muslims
  • 08:11 you can't have a small army.
  • 08:13 No matter how much it costs you have to have a bigger army.
  • 08:16 So he helped to degrade, he helped to upgrade the high tech
  • 08:22 but you don't stop terrorists coming across the border.
  • 08:26 Okay, Netanyahu had a brilliant idea to put up the wall.
  • 08:30 The wall was a very successful wall but in this attack from
  • 08:34 Gaza, they knocked down like 60 different entrances
  • 08:37 into Israel through the wall so there was this--
  • 08:40 this thing was so well planned.
  • 08:45 And the Gaza people were preparing for this attack on
  • 08:47 Israel perhaps for a year.
  • 08:49 And who's paying for it? Iran.
  • 08:52 And who is helping them? Iran.
  • 08:55 I would even say it might not be only Iran, it could be Russia,
  • 08:57 it could be other countries also
  • 08:59 that were helping Gaza against Israel.
  • 09:02 So now, because of this attack by Gaza,
  • 09:07 the Israelis are so hopping mad that this time we're not
  • 09:11 gonna stop until Hamas is gone.
  • 09:13 Okay so this was the Pearl Harbor,
  • 09:16 this was the Pearl Harbor, the attack from Gaza.
  • 09:19 Hezbollah, unlike Gaza--Gaza has fired maybe 5,000 missiles
  • 09:23 until now--rockets, 5,000.
  • 09:26 Hezbollah has 150,000 precision rockets.
  • 09:30 The Iranians have given them the precision mechanisms
  • 09:32 to hit any house in Israel, any house.
  • 09:33 Caleb: Hundred and fifty thousand.
  • 09:35 Avi: Hundred and fifty thousand.
  • 09:37 So the Gerald Ford and all the other ships that America's
  • 09:40 sending us have the capability
  • 09:42 to intercept many of these missiles.
  • 09:44 You have to remember, if you fire one missile, the Israeli
  • 09:47 Iron Dome can take it down.
  • 09:48 Caleb: Yeah.
  • 09:50 Avi: But if you fire 20, 30 missiles at the exact same
  • 09:51 target at the exact same time.
  • 09:53 Caleb: It's overwhelmed. Avi: It's overwhelmed.
  • 09:55 And this is what's happening with Gaza.
  • 09:56 They're testing us now. Caleb: Yes.
  • 09:58 Avi: Hezbollah is itching for a war.
  • 10:00 You know what, once we were all 13 year olds,
  • 10:03 and when we were 13 year olds, what was the greatest things
  • 10:05 when we were young kids?
  • 10:07 Firecrackers.
  • 10:09 And when you got your hands on some firecrackers.
  • 10:11 Caleb: You want use 'em. Avi: You're gonna use 'em.
  • 10:13 Hezbollah has 150,000 firecrackers.
  • 10:16 And they're not just--these things eventually get old,
  • 10:19 you've gotta dispose 'em so you're gonna use 'em.
  • 10:22 In the end, Hezbollah has to be eliminated because Lebanon
  • 10:26 will be a problem, the next problem for America
  • 10:28 or for other countries.
  • 10:30 Caleb: But now we're looking at what you're saying is other
  • 10:33 terrorist regimes joining in on the bandwagon, they see what's
  • 10:37 going on, they see the weakness, and they're going to jump in
  • 10:40 and exploit that weakness.
  • 10:42 Avi: Right, and who's gonna get blamed?
  • 10:43 Netanyahu. Caleb: Netanyahu, okay.
  • 10:45 Avi: What does Islam belief?
  • 10:47 Psychosis number one, they're gonna conquer the earth.
  • 10:50 Psychosis number two, they're gonna kill all the Jews.
  • 10:52 So that makes Islam just as psychotic as Nazism.
  • 10:55 They're gonna kill 2 billion Christians.
  • 10:58 That's psychosis number three.
  • 11:00 They're gonna kill 1 billion Hindus or one and a half billion
  • 11:03 now, they're gonna kill 2 billion Buddhists,
  • 11:07 and then, in other words, 1/6 of the human race,
  • 11:10 the Muslims are gonna kill 5/6 of the human race.
  • 11:14 And then, after they kill everyone else,
  • 11:16 what do they do to each other?
  • 11:17 Caleb: They're gonna kill each other.
  • 11:18 Avi: They're gonna kill each other.
  • 11:20 The Shiite and the Sunnis kill each other.
  • 11:22 By the way, Sunnis kill Sunnis Shiites, you know--New York City
  • 11:26 now, New York City is now allowing these mosques,
  • 11:29 allow decibels to broadcast
  • 11:31 "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar" means Allah is greater.
  • 11:34 Caleb: Yes it does.
  • 11:35 Avi: Now wait a second, Allah is greater?
  • 11:37 Caleb: Greater than your God. Avi: Greater than your God.
  • 11:39 This is my teaching.
  • 11:40 Now, if you're a Christian who said he was greater than God
  • 11:44 before his fall from heaven?
  • 11:45 Joshua: Satan.
  • 11:46 Avi: Satan, and so anyone who says "Allahu Akbar" is saying
  • 11:50 Satan is greater than God.
  • 11:52 I mean, this is at the core of my message.
  • 11:54 And also Allah--is Almaka
  • 11:56 the greatest of all the liars in deceivers.
  • 11:59 Is that God or is that Satan?
  • 12:01 Satan is the greatest of liars and deceivers.
  • 12:05 The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, does he love the Jews?
  • 12:08 Does he love the Christians? Does he love the Hindus?
  • 12:12 The pagans?
  • 12:13 Caleb: He loves everyone. Joshua: He loves everyone.
  • 12:14 Avi: Does he love the Muslims?
  • 12:16 Caleb: Yes. Joshua: Yes.
  • 12:17 Avi: Okay Allah, does he love the Jews?
  • 12:19 He wants 'em dead on Saturday.
  • 12:21 Does he love the Christians wants 'em dead on Sunday.
  • 12:22 The Hindus, the Buddhists are pagans,
  • 12:25 they should all be killed.
  • 12:26 And so, and then in the end, the Muslims kill each other
  • 12:28 because Allah is Satan.
  • 12:31 You see, Satan cannot be greater than God until all those in the
  • 12:35 image of God are dead, the veracity of the Bible.
  • 12:39 Caleb: The alarm's going off?
  • 12:40 Joshua: So really quickly, let me say that then.
  • 12:42 Guys, we're gonna temporarily pause this interview because
  • 12:44 we are in a bunker right now, in Jerusalem
  • 12:47 and the sirens are going off. Sorry.
  • 12:49 [Avi speaking in Hebrew]
  • 12:50 And so the people in the hotel
  • 12:52 are now being ushered into the bunker.
  • 12:54 And so we're gonna have to temporarily put a hold on that.
  • 12:56 We'll get back to you. Caleb: Thank you guys.
  • 13:12 Joshua: Hey everybody, I'm Joshua
  • 13:14 Caleb: Caleb.
  • 13:15 Joshua: Sun is setting here in Jerusalem on Monday.
  • 13:17 Monday was the day we were originally intended to fly out,
  • 13:19 go home, that's not happening.
  • 13:21 We're not sure when that's happening yet because
  • 13:23 the attacks are increasing.
  • 13:24 Caleb: So we wanna update you.
  • 13:25 With all the current facts people are asking,
  • 13:27 what's really going on?
  • 13:28 You can't trust CNN we--this is news on the ground we're getting
  • 13:31 from our local sources of what is really going on.
  • 13:34 Now, this is very significant guys 'cause very rarely,
  • 13:37 if not at all, has, rockets shot off from the Gaza Strip
  • 13:41 reached Jerusalem, it's just too far.
  • 13:43 They don't have good rockets, they don't have good technology,
  • 13:46 but this was pre-planned, it was premeditated.
  • 13:49 Hamas had acquired some reports, say up to 5,000 missiles.
  • 13:54 They fired them off so fast, simultaneously overwhelmed the
  • 13:57 Iron Dome, missiles got through.
  • 13:59 Joshua: We've downloaded a local app on our phone to
  • 14:01 basically send you a message update every time a missile is
  • 14:04 launched and where it is launched at or where it's hit.
  • 14:07 Our phones have been going off like crazy.
  • 14:09 You can follow these patterns. We're gonna try and show you
  • 14:11 some of these maps on the screen.
  • 14:13 As they started off on the Gaza Strip and worked their way
  • 14:15 towards Central Israel, towards Tel Aviv and even past Tel Aviv,
  • 14:19 obviously they wanna get to Jerusalem again.
  • 14:21 There are still rockets, even though they slowed down that are
  • 14:24 being launched out.
  • 14:25 They seem to be moving south of the Gaza Strip.
  • 14:27 We've talked to locals, our friends here think that that's
  • 14:29 because the nuclear weapons and other weapons bases are housed
  • 14:32 primarily in the south.
  • 14:34 And their thought is possibly Hamas is working towards either
  • 14:36 gaining control or blowing those areas up.
  • 14:38 Caleb: Tel Aviv is being pummeled.
  • 14:40 They're trying to take out the airport currently we've heard.
  • 14:43 People are laying on the tarmacs,
  • 14:44 trying to keep from getting hit.
  • 14:46 This is not the end.
  • 14:48 This is just the beginning of what's gonna happen.
  • 14:50 More attacks are gonna come, Hezbollah's
  • 14:52 joining into the fray.
  • 14:54 So this is gonna be a longer
  • 14:55 war than what people initially anticipated.
  • 14:58 Joshua: But we know over at the Gaza Strip, it has been
  • 14:59 chaos, people have been killed, people have been kidnapped.
  • 15:03 Israeli defense members have been kidnapped.
  • 15:06 Israelis, they've even been kidnapping Arabs and calling
  • 15:08 their families to confirm that they're Arabs
  • 15:09 it's been utter confusion.
  • 15:11 Caleb: We have people on our crew that
  • 15:13 are Arab Israelis and Jewish Israelis.
  • 15:15 None of them want war. They don't want terrorism.
  • 15:18 They don't want this kind of assault and death and murder.
  • 15:21 Joshua: The government has issued a warning to its people
  • 15:24 here that they need to be prepared to have three days
  • 15:26 worth of food and supplies.
  • 15:27 With this approaching weekend and what the leader of Hamas
  • 15:30 said to the Muslim people, he has called for what they're
  • 15:34 believing is going to be the next "intifada."
  • 15:36 We are hearing reports, you probably are seeing this at home
  • 15:39 all over the world, extra security measures taken in
  • 15:41 different countries around synagogues, around places that
  • 15:44 Israeli people, the Jewish people would normally gather
  • 15:46 because they're seeing terrorist attacks.
  • 15:48 So that's one of the things we want you to pray against.
  • 15:51 We want you to pray against the "intifada,"
  • 15:52 simply meaning pray against the people rising up
  • 15:55 in the streets and committing horrible acts.
  • 15:57 Caleb: People are asking right now is this the beginnings
  • 15:59 of a Psalm 83 war?
  • 16:01 Right now this are the birth pangs, wars, and rumors of wars.
  • 16:05 If we see it--a coalition of all these different nations
  • 16:08 combined, yes, then it begins.
  • 16:09 It hasn't been done yet, but it doesn't mean it won't.
  • 16:12 We're in the midst of the Citadel David, as you can see
  • 16:15 behind us and the people of Israel live.
  • 16:17 There's people everywhere.
  • 16:18 Yes, there's IDF soldiers, shops are closed everywhere,
  • 16:21 but people want to show that they're not afraid that they
  • 16:24 believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
  • 16:27 Joshua: So, when you hear these stories, instead of
  • 16:29 shaking your fist at anger at one group or the other group,
  • 16:33 begin to pray, begin to pray for the lives who are at risk, that
  • 16:36 this conflict, this war, because it is a war, comes to an end.
  • 16:40 We've tried to come out into places we know that are safe to
  • 16:43 try to see the people, to get the feel of what's going on.
  • 16:46 And because of this, we've made so many amazing connections and
  • 16:49 God moments that we've had.
  • 16:51 Caleb: Everywhere we go, believers praying, believers
  • 16:53 encouraging, believers speaking the Word and standing in faith
  • 16:57 knowing that God will uphold his word.
  • 16:59 "He who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep," and
  • 17:03 that is a word for us today.
  • 17:05 Pray Psalm 91 over the people here
  • 17:08 that things will end quickly.
  • 17:09 Remember "A thousand may fall at your sight and ten thousand at
  • 17:12 your right hand, but it shall not come near you.
  • 17:14 Only with your eyes will you see the reward of the wicked."
  • 17:17 Joshua: Dear heavenly Father, we love you so much and we know
  • 17:19 that none of this has happened outside of your purview.
  • 17:22 You saw it before it happened, you saw it before you created
  • 17:25 us, and you provided a way of escape.
  • 17:27 So I pray for every individual right now that is in Israel,
  • 17:30 that surrounds Israel, that is in a position of being
  • 17:33 affected by everything that's happening right now,
  • 17:35 that your hand of protection would be on them.
  • 17:37 That what Yeshua wants most of all, is that every single man,
  • 17:40 woman, and child comes to the saving grace so that they get
  • 17:42 to spend eternity with him.
  • 17:44 That's our number one purpose. That's why we're here.
  • 17:47 We're not here just to witness to the Jewish people,
  • 17:49 we're here to witness to all the people.
  • 17:50 Because the Father made all the people,
  • 17:52 every person is his son and daughter.
  • 17:55 So don't get caught up in hate on either side.
  • 17:57 Don't get caught up in finger pointing, but pray.
  • 18:00 Pray for safety and pray for peace, and pray that each
  • 18:03 person, that the deception is pulled from their eyes and they
  • 18:06 see the truth, and they come to Yeshua.
  • 18:08 It is in the name of Yeshua Hamashiach we pray, amen.
  • 18:11 [Caleb speaking in Hebrew]
  • 18:13 Joshua: Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
  • 18:17 David: What an incredible interview with you guys.
  • 18:18 I gotta admit that I cried through the whole thing.
  • 18:22 I just can't believe what you guys have been through,
  • 18:24 it's just incredible.
  • 18:26 Kirsten: Who ever thought that you'd be filming in a bomb
  • 18:28 shelter in a bunker, and the interview with Avi I mean,
  • 18:32 there's so much that we just saw, tell us a little bit more.
  • 18:35 Joshua: You know, we went all over the country filming with a
  • 18:38 schedule that was obviously designed by God.
  • 18:40 If it had been flipped in any way, we wouldn't have gotten any
  • 18:42 of the footage done because all those areas were cut
  • 18:44 off because of the war.
  • 18:45 So it was quite a blessing.
  • 18:47 And then in the shelter and around the hotel,
  • 18:48 we got to update everybody at home.
  • 18:50 But the big question is, how did God get us home?
  • 18:52 I want you guys to check this out now because what happened
  • 18:54 with that only God could have done.
  • 19:01 Joshua: Well, it's looking like the day has finally come
  • 19:03 where we might be able to get out of Israel.
  • 19:05 Right now we're with a group of people that is waiting to leave
  • 19:08 to head towards the Jordan border.
  • 19:10 with Congressman Cory Mills, who's agreed to get us there
  • 19:12 and get us across.
  • 19:14 And then once across, we're gonna head down to Amman and get
  • 19:17 on a flight and head to America.
  • 19:19 You might be watching this in retrospect so we can change into
  • 19:20 the details that don't get that accurate.
  • 19:22 Things have changed a lot, they've been fluid, but we've
  • 19:24 done our best to help get these people behind us with us and
  • 19:26 we're excited about coming home.
  • 19:36 Cory Mills: I'll try and continue to run in front of
  • 19:38 everyone on each one of these things to help try
  • 19:40 and expedite as we go through.
  • 19:41 So I ask that we try and stick together.
  • 19:43 That's the whole reason why I flew in, is to try and make sure
  • 19:46 that this was an option for everybody.
  • 19:48 Cory: I've got a headcount of 45.
  • 19:49 Plus us three, so 48 going out.
  • 19:51 Joshua: Hello everybody, my name is Joshua.
  • 19:53 Caleb: And I'm Caleb.
  • 19:55 Joshua: And we are brothers, we are Messianic Jewish
  • 19:57 believers and we've been in the country.
  • 20:01 That simply means that we are of Jewish heritage and we love
  • 20:03 Yeshua, we believe he's the Messiah.
  • 20:05 And we were super blessed to be in Israel for the past two weeks
  • 20:08 ministering on the series that we're hosts on
  • 20:11 "Our Jewish Roots," and talking about Jesus in the
  • 20:13 land when everything broke out.
  • 20:15 And so we were supposed to leave several days ago and weren't
  • 20:18 able to get home, but God has made a way through
  • 20:20 people like Congressman Mills.
  • 20:23 And man, it is such a blessing when you put your trust and your
  • 20:26 faith in Jesus and you don't allow fear and doubt and
  • 20:29 unbelief to be what you use as a barometer just because
  • 20:33 all the symptoms say that.
  • 20:35 And we live in a world that's very symptom driven and we look
  • 20:38 at symptoms and don't want you to believe the worst just
  • 20:39 because there's a lot of bad people out there.
  • 20:42 And whether they're in positions of power in our government,
  • 20:44 whether they're just the people around us every day, we have
  • 20:47 to stand up for what's right and speak the truth
  • 20:50 but do it in love.
  • 20:52 And so I just wanted to take a moment on the bus here to pray
  • 20:54 for Israel collectively, because the Bible says that there's
  • 20:57 power in two or more and I want us to come into agreement.
  • 21:01 So if you don't believe, that's okay and if you do, join with me
  • 21:04 in prayer because we love all of you.
  • 21:06 Dear Heavenly Father, we just thank you so much that we are
  • 21:08 all here for such time as this.
  • 21:10 There is no one of us greater than another,
  • 21:12 we are all your children.

  • 21:33 We did 32 the day prior to that and so we're continuing to try

  • 22:51 male: Hello!
  • 22:57 Joshua: When we were filming an update video one day,
  • 22:58 Caleb said, "Hey, I feel like we're supposed
  • 23:00 to go film on this portion of the roof."
  • 23:01 I obviously said, "No, that makes no sense.
  • 23:03 I don't wanna sweat in the sun."
  • 23:05 But I know my brother hears from God.
  • 23:06 So I said, okay, we're out here filming, and off in the distance
  • 23:09 a woman starts yelling at us from her balcony saying,
  • 23:10 "Hey, I seen you guys on the internet."
  • 23:12 It turns out that the couple from the balcony is none other
  • 23:15 than Paul and Brenda Crouch.
  • 23:17 We had an instant rapport with them and they were very gracious
  • 23:20 because they had a connection with a congressman
  • 23:23 from Florida, named Cory Mills.
  • 23:26 And he had agreed to fly in and to bring them out of Israel.
  • 23:30 They had decided not to take this option and gave us their
  • 23:33 contact, gave me his personal cell phone number in which
  • 23:36 I called him up and he responded the same day and said,
  • 23:39 "How many people?" I said, "There's five of us."
  • 23:41 He said, "I'll be there for you."
  • 23:43 As we're going on our hotel, we've told you guys that during
  • 23:45 the day we don't wanna sit in our room, we've gone out
  • 23:47 ministering to people, we've been talking to people,
  • 23:49 God set up divine appointments, it obviously got out that we
  • 23:52 were gonna be leaving.
  • 23:53 And there was a lot of desperate families who wanted to get out.
  • 23:56 They had children at home, they had jobs, they had things they
  • 23:58 had to get back to.
  • 23:59 And so they begged, "Can you get us extracted as well."
  • 24:02 And so I took passports, I took a few at first
  • 24:05 and I texted them to congressman.
  • 24:06 I said, "These people would like to go."

  • 24:48 We saw miracles happen on the ground in Israel.
  • 24:50 And little did most people know that we went
  • 24:52 viral with those videos.
  • 24:54 We had hundreds of thousands of people from around the world
  • 24:57 watching and praying for us.

  • 25:11 who interceded.
  • 25:13 Yes, God did the work but we have to pray and activate
  • 25:15 God into doing that.
  • 25:16 Congressman Cory Mills, again, thank you so much for being
  • 25:18 faithful to the call, for going in when nobody else would and
  • 25:21 rescuing as many Americans as you can.

  • 25:39 what's locally going on in Israel right now.
  • 25:42 We need to see and hear about those miracles, yes.
  • 25:45 Kirsten: Right, and one of the greatest miracles I think is
  • 25:49 the fact that probably Hamas and terrorists saw your messages.
  • 25:55 I mean, how else could that have happened?
  • 25:58 I know the war is horrific and what you guys went through was
