Today on Point of View, Kerby talks with Pastor Kip Jacob about his BeUnDivided initiative, and his involvement in the documentary, Undivided. Undivided documents the true story of how a suburban church unites with at-risk Roosevelt High School—once Portland, Oregon’s most outstanding but now failing and slated for closure—to create a beautiful transformation for students, the school and the volunteers serving it.It explores the startling possibilities for reconciliation and restoration. In the second hour, we hear from Joel Richardson, author of the book, When a Jew Rules the World:What the Bible Really says about Israel in the Plan of God.
In 2008, Pastor Jacob led SouthLake Church to join with area leaders in a commitment to organize efforts with Roosevelt High School and eventually make a difference in the city of Portland. The work that was done with SouthLake and Roosevelt formed a bond that would inspire a new vision for churches around the world.
Never one to shy away from innovation and inspiration, Pastor Jacob co-founded BeUndivided, a movement filled with stories and lessons from the Roosevelt/Southlake relationship. As chairman of the organization, his vision, theological discipline, and oversight of the team have remained consistent throughout the life of BeUndivided.

Richardson is a husband and a father committed to the pro-life and adoption movements. His books include New York Times bestselling The Islamic Antichrist and Mideast Beast, both published by WND Books.
In his new book, When a Jew Rules the World, Richardson paints a picture of what that one-thousand-year reign will be like, along the way blow-torching the notion that gentile Christians have "replaced" the Jews and Israel as the people of promise. Richardson lays out the tragic history of anti-Semitism within the church from the very beginning in what may be the most thorough repudiation of what has become known as “Replacement Theology,” or, as Richardson calls it, “Supersessionism.”
