In this heartfelt conversation, host Joel Rosenberg is joined by Gal Lavie, Director of the Founder’s Office at the Joshua Fund and an IDF reservist, to address a devastating tragedy that has shaken both Israel and the United States: the recent murder of two young Israeli diplomats, Yaron Leshinsky and his soon-to-be fiancée, Sarah Milgram, in Washington, DC.
