Tony Perkins to Travel to Israel on Christians in Solidarity with Israel Trip - FRC Family Research Council President Tony Perkins will travel to Israel August 17-22 as a part of the Christians in Solidarity with Israel trip, hosted by the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB). Perkins made the following comments about his upcoming trip: This trip will emphasize American Christians steadfast support for Israel. It will also underscore our need to continue to pray for and work for the peace of Jerusalem so that all the people of that region, Jewish and Palestinian, can live without fear. For a large number of Christians, there are two primary reasons to support Israel. We have the Jewish people to thank for our faith and we are instructed in Scripture not only to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, but are told that those who bless Israel will be blessed. Secondly, it is in the national security interest of the United States to support Israel. To abridge our commitment to the State of Israel would be an act of hostility not just to the Jewish state but would do damage to our own vital interests.
