Psalm 122:6-8. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. May those who love you prosper. May there be peace within your walls and prosperity inside your fortresses. And this is the verse I love the most: For the sake of my brothers and friends, I will say, peace be within you.

Welcome to Inside the Epicenter! In this extraordinary episode, host Joel Rosenberg takes you behind the scenes of what he calls "the miracle in the mountains" — one of the most dramatic, complex, and miraculous military rescue operations in American history. On Good Friday, April 3rd, an F-15E Strike Eagle was shot down by Iranian surface-to-air missiles deep inside enemy territory during Operation Epic Fury. While the pilot was rescued relatively quickly, the Weapons Systems Officer (WSO) found himself wounded, alone, hunted, and deep behind enemy lines. What unfolded over the next 36 hours — involving the CIA, U.S. Special Forces, downed helicopters, two destroyed $100 million aircraft, and the brave faith of one American airman — is nothing short of breathtaking. And when the WSO was finally rescued, his first message said it all: God is good. Shot down on Good Friday, hidden in a cave on Saturday, and rescued as the sun rose on Easter Sunday — this is a story of survival, faith, and divine providence you won't forget.
(06:45) What is Inside the Epicenter and the Joshua Fund?
(10:30) Good Friday, April 3rd — the F-15E Strike Eagle is shot down over Iran
(14:55) The race begins: Iranian forces mobilize, $60K bounty announced
(18:40) The pilot is rescued — but the WSO is missing
(22:10) SERE training kicks in: the WSO hides, sheds his gear, and heads for the mountains
(26:35) Israel suspends airstrikes to support U.S. rescue efforts
(29:50) Saturday, April 4th — climbing a 7,000-foot peak, wounded and hunted
(33:00) Friendly Iranians shelter the WSO; he activates his beacon
(36:15) U.S. bombs roads; an A-10 Warthog is hit and crashes in Kuwait
(39:40) The CIA launches a deception campaign and locates the WSO
(43:05) Two MC-130J planes land, get stuck, and must be destroyed — $200 million lost
(46:20) Scripture break — Isaiah 61 and a prayer for captives set free
(49:10) Easter Sunday, 12:09 AM — Trump posts: "We got him."
(52:00) What victory in Iran looks like — and what we must keep praying for

Bible Verse of the Day:
Isaiah 61:1 — "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the afflicted. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to captives and freedom to prisoners."
Prayer Requests:
- Pray with deep gratitude for the two American airmen who are now home and accounted for. Thank God for His miraculous hand of protection over their lives and pray for their full physical and emotional recovery, and for their families who endured those agonizing hours of waiting.
- Pray for the success and swift conclusion of Operation Epic Fury. Ask God to grant the U.S. and Israeli forces the clarity, courage, and capability to achieve a complete and decisive victory — neutralizing Iran's nuclear program, its ballistic missile capabilities, and its ability to project terror against Israel, America, and our allies.
- Pray for the people of Iran — for their spiritual liberation and political freedom. Ask God to bring down the wicked, 47-year-old regime of the Ayatollahs and open the door for a moderate, peaceful, pro-Western leadership. Pray especially that the gospel would advance among the Iranian people and that millions would come to know Jesus in this historic moment.

In this episode of Inside the Epicenter, Lynn Rosenberg welcomes Victor Kalisher, head of Israel’s Bible Society, to discuss a surprising challenge: most Israelis—even Hebrew speakers—struggle to fully understand their own Bible due to ancient language and tradition. Victor Kalisher shares the story behind a historic breakthrough: the first-ever modern Hebrew translation of the entire Old Testament, making Scripture accessible to today’s Israelis for the first time. Join Lynn Rosenberg and Victor Kalisher as they explore why this translation is so needed, how it was developed, and the powerful impact it’s already having—from opening young people’s eyes to helping schools and soldiers connect with God’s Word. It’s a fascinating look at bridging the gap between heritage and modern life, all at the heart of Israel.

We pray that you help us to stand in your word, to walk in truth and reality, not to be slow swayed by the world around us, by the enemy that wants to deceive us. Lord, I pray that we would become good teachers of those around us, that we would speak with love, that you would give us the right tone, and that you would provide us with your truth to be standing in.

Verse of the Day: Isaiah 61:1-3 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the afflicted. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to captives and freedom to prisoners, to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, to grant those who mourn in Zion, giving them a garland instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting.
Pray that the Lord release every single one of the hostages held by Hamas.

Verse of the Day: Matthew 14:13-14 - When Jesus heard about the death, the execution, really the murder of John the Baptist, Jesus withdrew from there in a boat to a secluded place by himself. When the people heard of this, they followed him on foot from the towns. When he landed, he saw a large crowd, and he felt compassion for them, healing their sick.
Pray that we all— you, us, our team here, and the Joshua Fund— would be moved with compassion for hurting people, those who don't know the love, hope, and healing of Jesus.
Pray that the hearts of people across the Middle East and other regions are open to Jesus and that they accept Him as Lord.

Verse of the Day: Romans 15:25-27: But now, I am going to Jerusalem, serving the saints. Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to contribute to the relief of poverty among the saints in Jerusalem. For they were glad to do so, and they are indebted to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual things, they are indebted to do them a service also in material things.
Pray for a much better and more encouraging 2026
Pray that God gives leaders in the US, Saudi Arabia, and Israel the wisdom to deal appropriately with issues that come.

Verse of the Day
2 Timothy 4:1-5 - In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke, and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and discharge all the duties of your ministry.
Pray at this moment for Charlie Kirk’s family, including Erica and the two young kids, as well as for his team and the country for strength and encouragement at this crucial time.
Praying for a revival among the young generation.

In this episode of "Inside the Epicenter," Joel and Lynne Rosenberg address a growing trend of young evangelicals turning against Israel.

He stresses the responsibility of parents and churches to educate the next generation and highlights the role of misinformation from secular and social media. Joel also discusses the recent October 7 Hamas attack as a spiritual “shaking” of Israel, not God’s judgment, and urges listeners to adopt a compassionate, biblically balanced approach—loving both Israelis and Palestinians as Jesus commands. The Joshua Fund’s ministry is presented as a model for serving and educating the church regarding God’s purposes for the Middle East.

Welcome to Inside the Epicenter with Joel and Lynn Rosenberg, brought to you by the Joshua Fund. In this episode, we travel to the Calvary Chapel East Coast Pastors Conference in Philadelphia, where Joel addresses a crucial issue: why are so many young evangelicals turning against Israel? Drawing on decades of experience, Joel outlines seven key reasons behind this shift, ranging from gaps in biblical teaching and the impact of secular culture to a lack of compassion for Palestinians within the church. He shares how recent events, including the October 7th attacks, have transformed the region and highlights the Joshua Fund’s mission to bring practical aid and the love of Jesus to both Israelis and their neighbors. Join us as we examine what’s at stake for the next generation and how we can reclaim a biblical vision for Israel, the Middle East, and the church’s role in the epicenter today.

Welcome to Inside the Epicenter. In this episode, host Joel Rosenberg sits down with Dr. Hormoz Shariat, the founder of Iran Alive Ministries—a man often called the “Billy Graham of Iran.” Together, they unpack the aftermath of the “12 Day War” between Israel and Iran, examining the impact on the Iranian regime, the hopes and fears of the Iranian people, and how recent conflict fuels a spiritual awakening across the country.
The conversation examines how Iranians perceive their leadership during a crisis, their unusual attitudes toward Israel and the United States, and the role of the church in a nation yearning for change. Joel and Hormoz also discuss what Bible prophecy—specifically Jeremiah 49 and Ezekiel 38—might reveal about Iran's future and what these tumultuous days mean for believers both inside and outside the country.

“So I will shatter Elam before their enemies and before those who seek their lives, and I will bring calamity upon them, even my fierce anger, declares the Lord, and I will send out the sword after them until I have consumed them. And then he says, God says through Jeremiah the prophet in verse 38, then I will set my throne in Elam and destroy out of it king and princes, declares the Lord.”
(Jeremiah 49:37-38)
Prayer Request
Joel asked for prayer for:
The liberation of Iran
Growth and courage of the church in Iran
The salvation of many more millions in Iran
Judgment on the wicked regime (unless they turn to Jesus and step down from power)
Dr. Hormoz Shariat added:
Pray for God’s intervention, as for the Iranian people, it’s a choice between “bad and worse.”
Even if the government collapses, pray against greater suffering and confusion duringthe transition, and that Iranians would not be deceived.
Pray for Iranian Christians to remain courageous and not be controlled by fear but by “faith, hope, and love,” gathering the harvest in these difficult times.

Verse of the Day: Psalms chapter 73: 22-24. Nevertheless, Lord, I am continually with you. You hold my right hand, you guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart, my portion forever. For behold, those who are far from you shall perish. You put an end to everyone who is unfaithful to you. But for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Lord God my refuge, so I may tell of all your works.
Pray for the church to be bold and to see the opportunities
Praying for the believers to be calm, to come together, to grow in their faith and grow in community, and also to keep our eyes on the Great Commission, that those around us need to know the hope that is in us.

Verse of the Day: Psalm 91:1-5 (NASB)- He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
My God, in whom I trust!” For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper
And from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark. You will not be afraid of the terror by night, or of the arrow that flies by day;
Pray for peace, pray for total victory over the Iranian regime, and pray for protection from these missile and drone attacks from Iran, and that Israel could defeat and destroy all of those missiles and drones so we don't have to shoot them out of the sky.

Joel and Lynn Rosenberg dive into a compelling discussion about China’s role in biblical prophecy and the end times. Drawing from Revelation 16, Joel unpacks what it means for China to be a “prototype of the tyrannical Antichrist society” and explores the idea that China could lead the coalition known as the “kings of the East” in the prophetic battle of Armageddon. The conversation covers the signs of the last days, China’s persecution of Christians, and the miraculous growth of Christianity within its borders despite overwhelming oppression. The Rosenbergs also highlight the geopolitical challenges posed by China and encourage listeners to pray for the persecuted church, for America’s leaders, and for wisdom in facing these end-times realities. If you’ve ever wondered how today’s global headlines fit into biblical prophecy—or what the future might hold for China and the world—this is an episode you don’t want to miss.

In this heartfelt conversation, host Joel Rosenberg is joined by Gal Lavie, Director of the Founder’s Office at the Joshua Fund and an IDF reservist, to address a devastating tragedy that has shaken both Israel and the United States: the recent murder of two young Israeli diplomats, Yaron Lischinsky and his soon-to-be fiancée, Sarah Milgrim, in Washington, DC. Joel and Gal share personal memories of Yaron—an accomplished, passionate, and peace-driven young man well-respected within Israel's evangelical Christian community. Together, they reflect on the grief and outrage felt by Israelis, the Jewish community, and friends of Israel around the world, and examine the surge in antisemitism that contributed to this horrific act. Joel and Gal place this tragedy within the broader context of ongoing conflict and struggle in the region, discussing not only the personal loss but also the implications for Israeli diplomatic security, the enduring pain of war, and the continued need for prayer, comfort, and solidarity. Listeners are invited to join them in honoring the lives of Yaron and Sarah, supporting their families, and praying for peace and protection for all those affected by this profound loss.

Verse of the Day: Matthew chapter 11:28-30 - When Jesus said to the people that he saw, and from other scriptures that are near and related to these, but he saw, the people of the holy land as sheep without a shepherd, harassed, helpless, discouraged, and depressed. And he said to them, Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

Welcome to Inside the Epicenter! In this episode, Joel Rosenberg is joined by Dr. Tommy Fretwell to unpack a crucial theological question: Has the church replaced Israel in God’s plan, or does God still have a unique purpose for the Jewish people? Together, they explore the roots and impact of supersessionism—also known as replacement theology—and discuss why some in the church believe God’s promises to Israel now belong to the church. From Tommy’s extensive research, they break down the different forms of this theology, its historical consequences, and why a biblical understanding of Israel is so important for believers today. Whether you’re a pastor, Bible student, or just curious about Israel’s place in God’s story, this episode is full of insight, scriptural clarity, and practical encouragement. Let’s dive into this essential conversation about Israel’s ongoing role in God’s redemptive plan.

Verse of the Day: Romans 11:1 -I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin.
Prayer:
Praying that more and more pastors, ministry leaders, and bible teachers hunger to know the word of God from Genesis through Revelation.
Pray that as they study, they have a deeper and deeper passion for knowing the scriptures.
Pray that more and more pastors develop a hunger, not just for the New Testament, as wonderful as the New Testament is, but really the biblical promises made, the covenants made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and through their people to the Messianic prophecies.
Praying that that hunger for God's word and an understanding, a clearer understanding of God's heart for Israel and the Jewish people
Pray that pastors who have sadly embraced supersessionism and replacement theology will begin to realize that they're mistaken.
Pray that God would also minister to Jews who've been harmed, who've been hurt, who've been stung by antisemitism, by Christians who or people who claim to be Christians, but many even who are generally saved, but they just don't get Israel.

Verse of the Day: Zecheriah 2:5-7 -. Woe to the inhabitants of the seacoast, the nation of the Cherethites. The word of the Lord is against you, Canaan, land of the Philistines. And I will eliminate you so that there will be no inhabitants. So the seacoast will become grazing places with pastures for shepherds and folds for flocks, and the coast will be for the remnant of the house of Judah. They will drive sheep to pasture on it. In the houses of Ashkelon, they will lie down in the evening, for the Lord their God will care for them and restore their fortunes.
Prayer:
Pray that God's peace will come to Gaza and that any plan by the United States government, Arab countries in the Middle East, or anyone else will bring lasting peace for all the people of this area.
Pray that everyone displaced by the challenges in Gaza will be comforted and know God's peace.

Verse of the Day: Isaiah chapter 61:1-The spirit of the Lord God is upon me because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor. Going ahead to verse 3, to grant to those who mourn in Zion, to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit, that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that God may be glorified.
Prayer
Please pray for the emotions of all the families and also the emotions of the hostages themselves.

In this episode of Inside the Epicenter titled "Finding Hope in Isaiah 40", Joel Rosenberg and guest speaker Tommy Fretwell explore the profound spiritual insights and promises in Isaiah 40.
Joel expresses gratitude and delves into themes of God's kindness, servanthood, and future promises for Israel and the world, emphasizing God's desire to win back His people tenderly. Tommy Fretwell shares a significant meeting between an orthodox Jewish Prime Minister and the Joshua Fund, highlighting the importance of trust, mercy, and aligning with God's prophetic plan during challenging times.
The discussion of Isaiah 40 covers its historical context, including the fall of the northern kingdom to Assyria and Hezekiah's reign. Tommy explains Isaiah's shift from judgment to comfort and messianic blessings.

Verse of The day
Psalm 37:1-10
Fret not yourself because of evildoers. Be not envious of wrongdoers, for they will soon fade like the grass and wither like the green herb. Trust in the Lord and do good. Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, trust him, and he will act. He will bring forth your righteousness as the light and justice as the noonday. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him. Fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices. Refrain from anger, forsake wrath, fret not yourself, it tends only to evil. The evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait for the Lord shall inherit the land. In just a little while, the wicked will be no more. Though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there.

Verse of the Day: Psalm 37:1-9 - Do not fret because of evildoers, Nor be envious of the workers of iniquity, for they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb. Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday. Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret—it only causes harm. For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the Lord, They shall inherit the earth.
Prayer
Pray you'd have mercy and that you would restore security and calm and true peace on that border and let people come back home to a new life.
Pray for all the 101 hostages that are still being held in those terror tunnels in Gaza that you would set them free.

Verse of the Day
Ezekiel 33:1-3 - The word of the Lord came to me: “Son of man, speak to your people and say to them, If I bring the sword upon a land, and the people of the land take a man from among them and make him their watchman, and if he sees the sword coming upon the land and blows the trumpet and warns the people, then if anyone who hears the sound of the trumpet does not take warning, and the sword comes and takes him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet and did not take warning; his blood shall be upon himself. But if he had taken warning, he would have saved his life. But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet so that the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any one of them, that person is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at the watchman's hand. So you, son of man, I have made a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me.

Half a century ago, there were fewer than 2,000 Jews who believed Jesus was the Messiah. Today, there are approximately one million worldwide.
In this episode of Inside, The Epicenter with Joel Rosenberg, Joel and Carl discuss today’s incredible phenomenon—more and more people of Jewish descent coming to Jesus. Joel tells listeners about the English & Hebrew video testimonies that are getting millions of views and encourages the Church to boldly share the Gospel with the Jewish people, despite the obstacles.
Joel also talks about the lack of interest in this topic by even the Christian media. He discusses a recent film – written and directed by two Jewish men, Stephen Spielberg & Tony Kushner – that depicts Christian and Jewish cultures mingling in a surprising and entertaining way.

How did President Trump accomplish what many other presidents failed to do?
Joel Rosenberg speaks with Jason Greenblatt, an Orthodox Jew and one of President Trump’s top Middle East advisors, about the “deal of the century” and how his administration was able to achieve a level of peace in the Mideast that has not been seen in decades. Greenblatt credits Trump’s unique personality and willingness to try something different as the key to getting four “yes’s” for the historic Abraham Accords.
Greenblatt also shares his perspective on the tremendous opportunity for investors in the region due to the Abraham Accords and his belief that it is possible to have peaceful coexistence in Israel and Jerusalem despite the faith differences of its inhabitants.
