Connecting the Bible to Today Part 5: Modern Israel
Modern Israel is a truly fascinating place. Its ethnic diversity and geographic contrasts alone make Israel an amazing place to visit. But the vibrancy of Israeli society is a modern marvel and is found in its religious diversity and in its political system of parliamentarian coalition governments. There are two unifying factors in Israel and one is service in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) that has helped in making Israel the Start-Up Nation. But its leadership in volunteerism is not about technology as much as the Jewish value of Tikkun Olam – to repair the world.

Susan’s involvement with the ICEJ began as a graduate student at Jerusalem University College in 1980, the same year that the Christian Embassy was first established. Upon completing her master’s degree in Judeo-Christian Studies, she returned from Israel with a heart to further the Embassy’s mission among fellow Americans. After a season assisting the ministry’s international leadership to host a series of high-profile pro-Israel conferences across the United States, she was asked to head up the ICEJ’s USA Branch.
In addition to a master’s degree in Judeo-Christian Studies, she holds a bachelor’s degree in theology from Oral Roberts University and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Laws by Piedmont International University in 2018.
Dr. Michael leads the American Christian Leaders for Israel (ACLI), has authored books, such as Encounter the 3D Bible: How to Read the Bible So It Comes to Life, and has developed educational resources, including the IsraelAnswers website, ICEJ U online courses, and curricula for Christian colleges.
