Welcome to Inside the Epicenter with Joel Rosenberg and Lynn Rosenberg, brought to you by the Joshua Fund. In this episode of Inside the Epicenter, Joel Rosenberg and Lynn Rosenberg examine the new Iran deal, exploring why so many Israelis feel abandoned and betrayed. Fresh from the US and UK, they discuss what’s in—and missing from—the 14-point agreement signed by President Trump, Vice President Vance, and Iran, and share key poll numbers and reactions from across Israel. The conversation unpacks the deal’s geopolitical and spiritual implications, challenges to the US-Israel alliance, and how Christians can respond in uncertain times.
