Kimberly Phillips, Events Chair, America-Israel Friendship League of Utah
Sam Glaser has emerged as one of the leaders in the effort to engage Christians in Israel advocacy. His inspired concerts and workshops have enlightened thousands regarding the shared world responsibility of providing for and defense of the Jewish people. As a committed and informed Jew, Sam has a rare combination of powerful Torah insights and world-class music to communicate that message.
More and more, concerned Christians are finding that they can have a significant impact in helping the Jewish people throughout the Diaspora return home to Israel. Unprecedented support has been given to such Israel “aliyah” organizations as Nefesh B’Nefesh and the Jewish Agency. Sam has been involved with performing at large-scale rallies and conventions that have served to educate and inspire Christian communities in these efforts. Also, his music has served as the soundtrack for films and videos associated with these programs.
Within Israel, the need has never been greater and the Christian world has been answering the call with a variety of important programs, including:
- Assisting Jewish immigrants to become settled in the land
- Promoting Arab-Jewish humanitarian cooperation
- Fighting poverty and hunger
- Providing therapy and support for survivors of terror
- Educating the children of Israel
regarding the beauty of their heritage
- Supporting Jewish communities in Samaria and Judea
The Bible commands all nations to pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6), to speak out for Zion’s sake (Isaiah 62:1), to be watchmen on the walls of Jerusalem (Isaiah 62:6) and to bless the Jewish people (Genesis 12:3). These and so many other verses of the Bible that have one overriding message – Christians have a Biblical imperative to defend Israel and the Jewish people in their time of need. Israel’s time of need is now.
One of the best ways to uplift your organization is to schedule a concert and/or workshop with Sam Glaser. Audiences will leave the event inspired to make a difference and armed with the specific information they need to do so. They will pray for the peace of Israel in song, learn traditional Jewish favorites, sing along with Sam’s contemporary settings of the psalms and dance a fervent hora at the end of the show.
