Rhiannon tells Tim how the events of 7 October, and the war that has followed, have impacted her on both a personal and professional level: “I will never forget the morning of 7 October”.

She explains why she is concerned about the international response to the terrible events of the past 10 months and shares her thoughts on what it takes to work for peace.

Rhiannon also speaks about what she has learned from working with Christians in the Middle East for the past six years, and discusses what it means to support those who are bringing the love of Jesus to their communities.

This conversation was recorded on 10 July 2024.
