For decades, the PCUSA General Assembly has taken up resolutions on Israel and Palestine. Too often these resolutions have lacked nuance, sowing discord rather than peace and straining the church’s relationship with the Jewish community.
As commissioners gather in Milwaukee to weigh this year’s overtures, we believe every voice deserves to be heard before the vote.
In the newest episode of Voices 4 Peace, Pastor Todd Stavrakos and Rev. Dr. Peter Pettit ask a hard question: are our churches truly engaged in peacemaking, or are we mostly signaling virtue? Drawing on their own work in Israel and Palestine, they talk honestly about trauma, solidarity, accountability, and what it looks like to address this conflict without simply taking sides.
However you are weighing the overtures before you, we hope this conversation offers something worth considering- as you discern, debate, and vote.
