In this deeply personal and theologically grounded solo episode, Jacob Winograd explores the question: Why do Christian libertarians—and Christians more broadly—need to talk about Israel? With a fusion of political analysis, historical context, and biblical exegesis, Jacob challenges the theological assumptions that undergird modern Christian Zionism. Drawing from Romans 9–11, Galatians 3–4, and Hebrews 11–12, he argues that the gospel centers not on ethnic identity or nationalistic promises, but on faith in Christ and the establishment of one covenant people of God.

Jacob also dives into the foreign policy consequences of Zionist theology, connecting neoconservative ideology to American interventions in the Middle East. Referencing Scott Horton's Enough Already, the "A Clean Break" memo, and General Wesley Clark’s revelations, he reveals how Israel’s geopolitical influence—propped up by distorted theology—has helped catalyze war, empire, and immense human suffering. The episode ends with a call to realign our theology with the gospel of peace and justice through faith, not blood or borders.
