Join Dominique as she speaks with people on the ground during the recent Philos Leadership Institute’s solidarity trip to the Holy Land.

In the second episode of this miniseries, Dominique is joined by Ronen Gurievsky. Ronen has led the Philos Leadership Institute in Israel since 2017.

Not only does he have a vast knowledge of the three Abrahamic faiths, regional history, and geopolitics but his service in the IDF provides our audience with context to complex regional actors and a region on the brink of large-scale conflict.
