Conversations with Yael: Bishop Paul Lanier -- Joining God's Conversation with Israel and the Jewish People

On today’s podcast, Fellowship Board Chairman Bishop Paul Lanier talks about the life-changing moment when he entered into God’s ongoing conversation with Israel and the Jewish people. As Bishop Lanier tells podcast host Yael Eckstein, President and CEO of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, he was watching late-night television and saw her father, Fellowship Founder Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, visit an elderly Holocaust survivor in Ukraine. “Watching him interact with this woman, I could feel the aloneness. I could feel the cold,” Bishop said. “And the more he talked, the more he had me. He invited me to be part of her conversation and God’s conversation with her. I knew I wanted to be a part of that.” That was 17 years ago, and Bishop Lanier talks about how being involved with The Fellowship and helping Jewish people “is the most Christian thing I can do.” Listen now to this inspirational message.
