Christian students in the US are responding in diverse ways to the ongoing campus protests about Gaza and Israel.

Peter Dray, Director of Creative Evangelism at UCCF in the UK, said a friend in the States told him: ‘Some are joining in. The protests resonate with their Scripture-informed identification with their Palestinian Christian brothers and sisters, as well as their humanitarian concerns for the massive loss of life among civilians.’

But he added: ‘Others reject the protests, often informed by American evangelicalism’s strong support of Israel.’
