The next ACSI meeting is Thursday September 16, at 7:30 pm at Beth Weizmann Community Centre, 306 Hawthorn Rd, Caulfield North.

How to talk about Israel

Australian Christians who support Israel are sometimes unsure of how to respond to unfair criticisms of Israel or incorrect theological assertions. This ACSI event will bring together two panels to answer any and all questions on how to talk about Israel. Each panel will consist of advocacy professionals.

The first session will concern issues we see in the media - Gaza, Hamas, the peace process, and more. The second session will tackle theological issues - why we, as Christians, should support Israel.

Both discussions will be in a question and answer format, so you can ask the hard questions, and get the answers you've been looking for.

This event will give you the confidence and ability to defend Israel in your church, workplace and among your peers.

Flyers for the meeting are available to be downloaded and printed out - so you can give them to your family and friends. (Click here for Word format and here for PDF format.)

ACSI meetings are on the third Thursday of every other month - the remaining meetings in 2010 are on September 16 and November 18. Mark these dates into your calendar now.

ACSI meetings are held at Beth Weizmann Community Centre, 306 Hawthorn Rd, Caulfield South, from 7:30pm.

Admission is $5. Tea, coffee and snacks are provided.

ACSI meetings last approximately two hours, and include presentations on issues relevant to Christians who support Israel. Examples of presentations include The Jewish Roots of Christianity, How to Effectively Advocate for Israel, The Nabatean Civilisation, The Geography of the Land of Israel, Life in the Time of Abraham, The History of Jerusalem and more. (Topics covered in past ACSI events can be seen here).

The aim of these meetings is to provide Australian Christians who support Israel a regular source of information about issues that matter to them, from local, interstate and international speakers, in order to better arm them to speak about Israel to people in their church and workplace.

E-mail acsi@acsisrael.org for more information.

At this stage, ACSI does not hold events outside of Melbourne, though this will hopefully change in the near future - stay tuned!
