Christians have lived in Palestine since the earliest days of the
Jesus movement. The Palestinian church predates Islam. Yet
Palestinian Christians find themselves marginalized and ostracized.
In the heated tensions of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the
voices of Palestinian Christians are often unheard and ignored.
This book provides an opportunity to hear the realities of life on
the ground from a leading Palestinian pastor and theologian.
Munther Isaac gives the perspective of Palestinian Christians on
the other side of the separation wall surrounding most Palestinian
West Bank cities today. Isaac laments the injustices suffered by
the Palestinian people but holds out hope for a just peace and ways
to befriend and love his Jewish and Muslim neighbors. In contrast
to the dominant religious and nationalistic ideologies and agendas
for the region, he offers a theology of the land and a vision for a
shared land that belongs to God, where there are no second-class
citizens of any kind. "This book is my invitation to you," Isaac
writes, "to step into the other side of the wall and listen to our
stories and perspective. It is my humble request to you to allow me
to share how Palestinians experience God, read the Bible, and have
been touched and liberated by Jesus-a fellow Bethlehemite who has
challenged us to see others as neighbors and love them as
ourselves. . . . This book paints a picture of our story of faith,
lament, and hope. And I invite you to join and listen, on our side
of the wall."
