Eternal Covenants
When most people pick up the Bible, they often do not realize that they are holding an ancient text that was given to a particular people (the Jewish people), in a particular ancient context (ancient Israel), with particular promises (the biblical covenants). You cannot get through the first book of the Bible without mentioning Israel or the promises of God. God’s promises in the Bible are often bound up closely with covenantal promises that are made with His people. The wor

Why Gen Z Christians are Hungry for Authenticity: How the land and people of Israel provide the roots that many young believers are searching for.
Wide-eyed and wholly unaware of what was about to happen to me, I stepped out of the van. The mountain air brushed my 17-year-old face as the heavy clay and rocky soil crunched beneath my feet. Nir Lavi had a special spring in his step that seemed connected to his mischievous, contagious smile. He was a young man of close to thirty. Nir shifted his IDF-issued AK-47 to pull a well-worn Tanach from his pocket. We were standing at the edge of a vineyard that swept down into the

Shavuot - The Feast of Equipping
Shavuot (Pentecost) is the equipping holiday. On this day, God revealed His truth. On the very same day of the year, a millennium and a half later, He enabled that truth to be downloaded into our hearts. That truth sets us free, builds us up, enables us to walk in supernatural gifts, launches us into the great commission, and causes our hearts to beat in anticipation of our King’s return to Jerusalem. Lightning flashed, thunder shook the mountain, and the shofar blast grew l

Happy Jerusalem Day!
The world’s oldest love story is more romantic than anything you’ll find in Hollywood or Hallmark. It is riddled with plot twists, villains, seduction, valor, betrayal, and unswerving faithfulness. God woos his beloved Israel, saying “Yes, I have drawn you with an everlasting love, you are written on the palms of my hands, and I have betrothed you to me forever.” There is an entire book of the Bible dedicated to depicting this divine love in human terms. The Song of Solomon

Filling Our Lamps
The Cup That Changed Everything There is a moment frozen in time that most of us have visited again and again, the Upper Room, the night before the crucifixion, the Last Supper. We know it well as a solemn memorial. But what if we have only seen half the picture? In ancient Jewish wedding custom, a young man who wished to take a bride would come to her with a cup of wine. He would propose, declare his love and his covenant intentions, and then offer her the cup. If she drank

Christians, How Well Do We Know Jesus?
Getting to know someone can be challenging. There is so much depth to every individual - strengths, weaknesses, personality traits, character, experiences, dreams, and passions. I was really close to my grandfather before he finished his time here on this earth. We spent time together working on his cattle farm and tinkering on cars. I feel like I got to know him pretty well. “D-Daddy” was a quiet, thoughtful man. He never got angry and was always willing to listen. I remembe

Chametz — What Is It?
“For seven days no leaven (se’or) shall be found in your houses, since whoever eats what is leavened (chametz), that same person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether a stranger or native of the land. You shall eat nothing leavened (chametz); in all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread” (Exodus 12:19–20). So what exactly is chametz? The Hebrew word se’or refers to sourdough starter—fermented batter used to cause bread to rise. In practice, it fun

God Built Something. We Should Pay Attention.
The blueprints of the Tabernacle are not ancient trivia. They are a living declaration, written in silver, acacia wood, and rams' skins dyed red. We know the story. Betzalel and Ahaliav, filled with the Spirit of God, gather the people and build exactly what the Lord commanded. Silver sockets. Acacia beams overlaid with gold. Curtains of blue, purple, and scarlet. A veil. An altar. An ark. And then the glory descends, and Moses cannot even enter, because the presence of the H

Do You Attend The Church of Online Influencers?
Culture is not something that simply happens to us. It is built, brick by brick, from the beliefs we hold, the values we cherish, and the assumptions we carry, often without even realizing it. Thus, our culture is informed by what we deem to be true. It is the ongoing formation of who we are and how we see the world. Which raises a question that every serious believer must ask: Who is doing the educating? Who, exactly, is shaping your beliefs? Whose voice is forming your valu

Do Something About It | A Biblical Call to Bless Israel Through Acts of Service
In this article, I will make a case for one particular answer that I believe to be critical. That is the relationally healing and trust-building effect of shoulder-to-shoulder acts of service by Christians towards the Jewish people. I contend that Christian acts of service performed for the Jewish people are significant to the eradication of Christian Jew-hatred, a key to gaining relational fidelity with the Jewish people, and a critical component of God’s master plan for...

2025 in Review
In 2025, Israel Lighthouse moved from vision to foundation . We welcomed our first groups to the Land, hosted pastors and families in Samaria, toured biblical sites like Elon Moreh, and shared meals and fellowship with believers from the nations. Over Hanukkah, voices from Jerusalem, Judea, and Samaria were released nightly through our Hanukkah Light teachings. Behind the scenes, God also provided in practical and unmistakable ways. A ministry van was donated. And on Septem

The Story of The Israel Lighthouse
As a small child, I was always the one studying how things worked—how signals traveled, how pieces fit, how one unseen movement caused another visible result. When I learned to use the television remote at three years old, it wasn’t novelty that excited me. It was understanding. I wanted to know why the picture changed when I pressed the button. I was already learning that light responds to order, and that clarity is never accidental. That curiosity grew on the banks of Russe

A Vision for Authentic Discipleship in the Heartland of Israel
Shalom friends, My name is Zac Waller, and I’m the founder and president of Israel Lighthouse for the Nations. I want to share with you—plainly and honestly—the vision God has placed in our hands, and why this moment matters so much. At its heart, Israel Lighthouse is about discipleship. Real discipleship. The kind that forms believers deeply, biblically, and faithfully—rooted in Scripture, connected to Israel, and lived out in the nations. We carry a God-sized vision: to

Sukkot - The Feast of Kingdom Vision
Sukkot arrives like the final chord of a great symphony. Rosh Hashanah crowns the King. Yom Kippur bows before His mercy. After all this preparation, Sukkot climaxes with the King Himself inviting His people to come and pitch their tent next to His. The shofar has ceased its trembling cry, the books of judgment have been sealed, and mercy, stronger than death, has triumphed. Now the season of dwelling begins, and we step into the fragile shelter that proclaims an everlasting

THE HANDWRITING ON THE WALL
Yesterday, a tremor from Hell shook the nations, and their pride defied the heavens. The United Kingdom, Canada, Portugal, and Australia stood before the world and declared recognition of a Palestinian state—as if a covenant that Almighty God made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob could be crossed out with the stroke of a pen...

Come to the Well: A Deeper look into the Land and People of Israel
Remember when you first started learning about Israel, and whether it was something about the biblical feasts, covenants, or prophecy, you were amazed by how rich and meaningful it was? If your experience was anything like mine, you were astounded by how deep and heart-connecting these biblical, Jewish, Israeli things were. Honestly, it kind of took me off guard. I thought, “Wait, I have given my life to Yeshua, and I have studied the entire Bible, and yet, these people who

Abandoning Fatherless Christianity: Rediscovering Father Abraham
Father figures are important. They play a very unique and powerful role. A good father stabilizes, affirms, casts vision, and builds confidence. No other person could say, “See that goal, you can make it,” “You’re doing good,” or, “I’m proud of you,” and have the same impact. Fifteen times in the Old Testament and seventeen times in the New Testament, Abraham is referred to as “father.” Even Yeshua the Messiah gives him that title in the parable of the rich man and Lazurus (

Christian Zionist Hero Training
Heroes rise to the occasion and bravely fulfill their mission. Most of our Christian Zionist heroes stood against insurmountable pressure, and some gave their lives. Christian Zionist, William Hechler was thoroughly convinced that the Jewish people would return to the land of Israel. When he met Theodore Herzl, he knew he must do all in his power to help him in his effort to establish a Jewish state in the land of Israel. He rose to the occasion, accomplished incredible feat
