    About this ebook

    The politics of the Middle East can be murky and confusing. But one thing is increasingly certain: The eyes of the nations are riveted upon Israel and her neighbors, the epicenter of the momentous events shaking our world and shaping our future. What does the future hold? How will it affect your world? The Epicenter Study Guide can be used along with Joel Rosenberg's best-selling book Epicenter as well as the Epicenter DVD to help de mystify the events happening around the world. This study guide is designed to facilitate group discussion but can also be used for individual study. The study guide is divided into chapters to correlate with the chapters in Epicenter. You'll find helpful excerpts and Scripture references. The guide provides an easy-to-use workbook format that allows you to write directly in the book plus offers additional space for study notes.

      WELCOME TO THE EPICENTER

      Wars and rumors of war. Jihadists in Jerusalem. Chaos in Gaza. Missiles in Lebanon. Suicide bombers in Iraq. Genocide in Sudan. An Iranian president vowing to wipe Israel off the map. Millions convinced the Messiah is coming. Poverty. Illiteracy. Hardship and suffering. Yet always a fervent prayer for peace.

      No wonder the eyes of the nations are riveted on Israel and her Islamic neighbors, the epicenter of the momentous events that are shaking our world and shaping our future.

      What will tomorrow bring? How will the rumblings in the Middle East affect your world and change your future? Does the Bible actually give us advance intelligence as to what is coming, what it means, and how we can be ready?

      WHY USE THIS STUDY GUIDE?

      As you embark on a journey to find the answers to these important and increasingly urgent questions, I hope that you will find this Epicenter Study Guide helpful. I wrote it for several reasons:

      1. To help readers of my nonfiction book Epicenter continue and even accelerate their own personal quest to understand the Middle East’s past, present, and future.

      2. To help pastors and other religious leaders better explain God’s plans for the people of the epicenter.

      3. To create a resource that would encourage small group studies and discussions of the epicenter.

      4. To inspire a new generation of evangelical Christians with a passion for compassion, a burning desire to bless Israel and her neighbors in real and practical ways.

      5. To mobilize a global movement of millions of people praying daily, knowledgeably, and faithfully for the peace of Jerusalem and the entire region, according to Psalm 122:6.

      What are your goals for reading using this guide? What do you hope to learn? to achieve? Knowledge is important. So is faith. But the Bible says, faith without works is dead (James
