FEATURED EVENT
Before Jesus’s return to establish His Messianic Kingdom, the Bible describes a coming period of intense judgment.
It calls this period “the Day of the Lord.” On that day, God Himself will intervene in human history, displaying His displeasure with sin and rendering His judgment against the nations of the world. Join us for our online Look Up Conference as we explore what the Bible teaches about “the Day of the Lord,” and find out what this prophetic event holds in store for Israel, the nations, and believers in Jesus.

The Voice of Zvi Kalisher
(1941—2023) Apples of Gold audio stories were voiced by Mike Kellogg. Mike was in newspaper and radio news and production for almost 50 years, both in secular and Christian venues. In 2014 he retired from Moody Radio after 42 years. He narrated the first recorded version of the NLT version of the Bible. For nearly 30 years he taught at Moody Bible Institute as adjunct professor in communications. He and his wife, Nancy Smith Kellogg, were married in 1965 and enjoyed rearing their six children and 19 grandchildren together. We are thankful to the Lord for Mike’s years of ministry and the way he served The Friends of Israel as the voice of Zvi Kalisher.
Program Music
The Friends of Israel Today and Apples of Gold themes, as well as other music throughout our program were composed and performed by Jeremy Strong.
