The Bridge Builders Forum What is Universal Zionism?: Rabbi Tuly Weisz on Jews, Christians, and the Future of Israel
What is Universal Zionism? And why would it matter to a Christian in Kentucky as much as to a Jew in Jerusalem…maybe even more?
In this episode of the Bridge Builders Forum, Ryan Lambert sits down with Rabbi Tuly Weisz, founder of Israel 365, to explore one of the most compelling—and controversial—visions shaping Jewish–Christian relations today.
Joining us from Israel during the war with Iran, Rabbi Weisz shares his personal story of how an Orthodox rabbi from Ohio became a leading voice building bridges between Jews and Christians worldwide.
Together, we discuss:
The meaning behind his new book Universal Zionism
Why Jewish–Christian reconciliation may be the most important alliance of our generation
What role Christians play in the future of Israel
The biblical framework of Saul, David, and Solomon in shaping this vision
The controversy surrounding Judea and Samaria
How October 7 changed Israel365—and the broader Jewish–Christian relationship
What it’s like living in Israel right now amid tensions with Iran
His greatest concerns—and deepest hopes—for the future
This is a deep conversation about theology, current events in Israel and the Jewish world, and the future of Jewish–Christian partnership—one that challenges assumptions and invites deeper understanding.
