History's final chapter will be written in Jerusalem.
When an Iranian president thunders a
murderous threat or an obscure Turkish drunkard?has a dream in Mecca or a
Jewish couple from Brooklyn lands at Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion airport, these
events might seem disconnected. But they're not. In Dateline Jerusalem,
CBN News correspondent Chris Mitchell connects the dots and unveils Jerusalem
as the epicenter and crossroads of the spiritual, political, and, yes,
supernatural worlds.
For thousands of years, Jerusalem's powerful
draw has always transcended simple economics, military strategy, and religious
affiliation.
In our own time, as the Arab Spring threatens
"The Arab Spring doesn't
lead to democracy, it leads to Jerusalem." Indeed, the fragile peace of Israel
is in new peril as violent Islamic factions vie for control of surrounding nations.
Yet Muslims are converting to Christianity in record numbers. Dateline
Jerusalem untangles and chronicles all this through the riveting narrative
of a Christian reporter in the upheaval of the modern Fertile Crescent.
We live in a world where we cannot
afford to be ill informed. What happens in the strategic Middle East, Israel,
and Jerusalem is critical. It matters to you. Today's news might focus on
Washington, New York, London, or Moscow, but history's final chapter will be
written in Jerusalem.
Chris Mitchell's firsthand
experiences and reporting uniquely qualify him to expound on and explain the
major trends and developments sweeping the Middle East and affecting the world.
Mitchell has served as the bureau?chief for CBN News since August 2000.
