KTF Weekly Newsletter

Hi everybody,

Please send in any questions you have for us on the conflict in Israel and Palestine—just hit reply to this email or write to shakethedust@ktfpress.com. We’ll be talking about it in our November bonus episode for paid subscribers. And if you want to be able to listen to that, make sure to subscribe!

And now, on to this week’s highlights as we seek to leave colonized faith for the Kingdom of God.

Jonathan’s recommendations:

• Being anti-Zionist does not mean that you are anti-Semitic. This truth often can’t break through the noise of this moment in our international discourse. But Adam Serwer in this article from the Atlantic uses his characteristically clear and powerful prose to break down why this conflation is impossible to defend. Moreover, no matter how intense the pain or stress of a political conversation, we must not make arguments that are dishonest, dehumanizing, or dismissive of the suffering of other people. But synonymizing anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism does just that.
