Over the past decade and a half, HCEF has been active in promoting scholarship, publications, and creative works tied to inhabitants of the Holy Land, particularly the Christians among them, and the Middle East. Organized by the HCEF Research and Publication Committee, which is headed by Dr. Saliba Sarsar, Professor of Political Science at Monmouth University, this committee has put forth three edited books, an edited monograph, a select bibliography, a book of poems, and a few PowerPoints.
In addition, in 2014-15, the committee presented a special series, “Palestinian Christians: In Their Own Words,” which highlighted the views and vision of Christians who have experienced the Holy Land. Among them especially are the Palestinian Christians who are often overlooked, even though they matter historically, religiously, theologically, socially, economically, and politically.
