How can Christians Support a Just Peace in the Holy Land?
This July, Palestinian Christians in Australia invites you to a profound and deeply necessary conversation. We are privileged to host Dr. Yousef Khoury for a national speaking tour titled "Bearing Witness: Palestinian Christian Voices. How can Christians Support a Just Peace in the Holy Land?"
Meet Dr. Yousef Khoury
Dr. Khoury is a Christian Palestinian theologian who was raised in Gaza, where his family still remains. He brings a vital, lived perspective to the intersection of faith, justice, and peacebuilding.
He currently serves as:
Academic Dean & Assistant Professor of Biblical Studies at Bethlehem Bible College.
Steering Committee Member for Christ at the Checkpoint.
Board Member of Kairos Palestine.
Through his unique lens as both a leading scholar and a son of Gaza, Dr. Khoury will guide us through the complex realities on the ground, offering a powerful perspective on what true solidarity, justice, and peace look like today.
