Monthly radio reflections on the Middle East

A reminder that Ekklesia associate, international lawyer and church consultant Dr Harry Hagopian features in a regular Premier Christian Radio broadcast on the Thursday of the last week of every month.

Together with Premier’s Marcus Jones he unpacks developments in the MENA (Middle East North Africa) region.

Whether it’s the conflict in Syria, the plight of Christians in Egypt, ISIS, Iraq, the situation in Israel and Palestine, or much else, each month with the help of an extra guest, the programme looks behind the headlines to explore what is going on and how Christians and others can respond.

Past episodes are available for listening and download at: http://www.premierchristianradio.com/mena The 30 October broadcast should be up shortly.
