Faith in the Crosshairs

From our friends and comrades at Christians for a Free Palestine.

We’re excited to share that Christians for a Free Palestine is being featured on an upcoming webinar, “Faith in the Crosshairs,” on Monday, February 16, at 6 pm ET / 3pm PT. You’ll see some familiar faces as we share contemporary analysis with our friends at Adalah Justice Project (AJP) and Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP), and talk about our work organizing against Christian Zionism. The webinar is , and a recording will be sent to all registrants.

The webinar, co-sponsored by CFP, AJP, and JVP, will feature Rev. Naomi Washington-Leapheart, a member of CFP’s Theo-Politics committee, as well as Rev. Dr. Crystal Silva McCormick and Jonathan Brenneman from CFP’s national leadership team. The three will be discussing the often overlooked role Christian Zionism plays in U.S. politics. This would be a great webinar to share with people in your life who are new to these issues! Consider inviting a friend or family member who would be excited to learn more about CFP’s work.

We’ll also look at the shifting context we see unfolding across the U.S. as Christian Zionism receives renewed political and financial backing through Israeli and U.S. state partnerships with churches, media campaigns, and targeted outreach efforts. Churches are increasingly the focus of surveillance, tracking, and digital targeting, and select pastors are being recruited and trained as ambassadors for Israel. At the same time, significant cracks are widening within Christian communities — generational divides, theological debates, and growing numbers of people challenging the ways faith is being co-opted by empires to perpetuate state violence. Please join us!
