Film Screening: With God On Our Side
Join us at Harvard Divinity School for a screening of the film With God On Our Side, which explores the complex issues and connections between Christian Zionism and the Israel-Palestine conflict. Drawing on the Public Conversations Project’s extensive experience in Jewish communities and interfaith contexts, including a wide range of work and a published guidebook related to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Senior Associate Maggie Herzig will present a response to the film and participate in the discussion.Vineyard Christian Fellowship of Greater Boston

In reflecting on the film and the screening, Maggie notes, "Many people grow up hearing a particular narrative about Israel and Palestine and the history of Jews and Arabs. And of course some people hold narratives in direct conflict with each other, i.e., the narrative of one deletes or minimizes what is most deeply important to the other. Dialogues often involve a meeting of the narratives in a manner that breaks this pattern and helps everyone involved to develop a more complex and nuanced view, even if many of their core beliefs and commitments remain the same."Come explore diverse narratives and foster constructive conversation about this conflict:
