Este sermón fue predicado por Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac el 22 de octubre en la Iglesia Evangélica Luterana de Beit Sahour y la Iglesia Evangélica Luterana Navidad en Belén, luego de que un ataque de las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel impactara a uno de los edificios de la iglesia activa más antigua en Gaza, la Iglesia Ortodoxa Griega de San Porfirio.

I never write about the men in my life. But last week, I started teaching a systematic theology course.
