The Fall of Bashar al-Assad: A Turning Point in Syria and the Middle East

The Assad regime in Syria has fallen after decades of brutal rule, leaving the region and the world watching closely. What does this mean for Israel, for the Middle East, and for God’s timeline? In this episode of The Jewish Road Podcast, we explore the implications of this seismic shift. From Iran’s crumbling “Shiite corridor” to Israel’s strategic moves in the Golan Heights, we unpack the geopolitical and spiritual consequences of this historic event.

But this isn’t just about politics - it’s about the unfolding of biblical prophecy. As the Middle East shifts, what role do Christians play in standing with Israel? And how can we be watchful, prayerful, and active in these critical times? Join us as we dig deep into what this moment means for the nations and for God's ultimate plan.
