Jewish ministry
name change
Christian Witness to Israel is changing its
name to International Ministry to Jewish
People.
CEO Joseph Steinberg explained that: ‘We
became increasingly aware that the name of
our mission, Christian Witness to Israel, has
become a hindrance to engage parts of the
church as we seek to expand our reach and
share the Good News of Jesus with as many
Jewish people as possible. This
is due to
the assumption many make that our name
means we are focused on politics or land
issues in the Middle East when in fact we, as
an evangelistic mission, are solely focused on
telling Jewish people about Jesus, wherever
they may be.’
