(Building) Bridges for Peace… A Conversation with Peter Fast
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In a time when the relationship between Jews and Christians is being tested, debated, and sometimes misunderstood, thoughtful leadership and meaningful relationships matter more than ever.
In this episode of the Bridge Builders Forum, Ryan Lambert sits down with Rev. Peter Fast, International President and CEO of Bridges for Peace, an organization that has spent more than 50 years building relationships between Christians and Jews around the world.
Peter joins the conversation from Israel to share his personal journey, the mission behind Bridges for Peace, and why fostering healthy Christian–Jewish relationships is so important in this moment. Together, Ryan and Peter discuss the rise of antisemitism, the challenges surrounding Christian Zionism, and why Christians who care about the Bible should also care deeply about the Jewish people and the land of Israel.
The conversation also explores practical ways Christians can move beyond good intentions and take meaningful action—supporting Jewish communities, learning from the biblical roots of their faith, and standing with clarity and compassion in a complicated world.
Peter also introduces a unique Bridges for Peace initiative called Ignite the Truth, a year-long Bible study journey filmed in the Land of Israel that helps Christians reconnect their faith to the biblical story and its Jewish context.
If you care about the future of Jewish–Christian relationships, the fight against antisemitism, and what faithful Christian support for Israel can look like today, this conversation will both challenge and encourage you.
