NINETY MINUTES OF BREATHING: Gaza and the World Cup
Maybe it’s just a game to you — ninety minutes of football, the quest for yet another victory and a trophy that will soon fade from memory. But few will experience it as fiercely, as desperately, as the people of Gaza. For them, each match is ninety minutes of breathing — a brief return to normality in the midst of unrelenting hardship. Have a look how the World Cup is celebrated in Gaza
WORLD HUNGER DAY: a world of empty stomachs, a church with full hands
For those who may not read the article all the way through, allow me to begin with an urgent conclusion. 28 May is World Hunger Day. And the call is simple, tender, and deeply Christian: feed at least one hungry person TODAY. Make it more than a thought. Make it personal. As if it was…
The Christian Faith in the Context of Gaza
Rev. Katanacho: The reason why I used the title “The Christian Faith in the Context of Gaza” is a deep personal conviction. I do not want to live out my faith in isolation from my political reality, nor do I want to face my political reality in isolation from my Christian faith.
DEATH BY DESIGN: A starving Christ in a hungry Gaza
Take a moment to let that sink in: Two months of war in Iran equals eight years of food supplies for 2 million starving people in Gaza.
GAZA: unexpected voices rising from the rubble
This is the story of Gaza’s unsung heroes. These are names you have most likely never heard before and may never hear again, because Gaza’s life is usually reduced to headlines — verdicts of guilt or innocence, images of ruin and loss. Yet the truest portrait of Gaza is painted in small, stubborn acts of human survival: a clown bringing smiles to faces of children, a musician playing his guitar in a refugee camp, a doctor weeping with patients, students finishing an exam between shifts, children playing hopscotch in empty spaces, a soccer match in the rubble, and a church lifting prayers for those who heal.
MIND HOARDING AND THE GAZA WAR: how mental clutter distorts our moral clarity
Mind hoarding is a spiritual condition. It keeps us trapped in theological archives while real bodies bleed. To confront the Gaza war with integrity, we must declutter our minds—releasing what no longer serves love, justice, or truth.
MORE THAN 71,000 DEAD IN GAZA: Israel’s monumental admission
In a monumental confession, after more than two years of relentless bombing in Gaza, Israel’s military has now, for the first time, acknowledged that the death toll figures long compiled by the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the enclave, is correct and verifiable.
COATHANGER CHRISTIANITY: Gaza as case study
The pressing question today is this: how can the relentless cycle of conflict and war in the world be broken? Strangely enough, the solution is not found in the pursuit of “truth”—despite what many Christians might assume. History itself bears witness that “truth” has often been the spark that ignited division and war. The answer lies elsewhere. And Jesus insists it hangs, like a garment, suspended on a coathanger.
37 NGO’s BANNED IN GAZA: seeing Gaza through the eyes of scripture
Israel formally announced the ban on 37 NGOs in Gaza at the end of December 2025. In response to the ban, pro-Israel voices were quick to downplay the decision, insisting that these groups represent barely 15% of the International NGOs in Gaza and account for less than 1% of all the aid provided to its people. Here are the facts
COMPASSION WITHOUT APOLOGY: a Christian response to Gaza
This past week was the final straw. Yet again, a message from a fellow believer landed in my inbox, questioning why I weep for the people of Gaza. So, I am tired. Not fatigued but fed up… Tired of having to explain why I care for the wounded. Tired of the arguments that twist my compassion into betrayal. Tired of the accusations that equate my empathy with the wounded as support for Hamas. So, to all of us who are asked this question: “How do you justify your empathy for the enemies of Israel?” I say this…
