Joel C. Rosenberg
Joel C. Rosenberg is a New York Times bestselling author of 15 novels and five nonfiction books with nearly five million copies in print.
He has marked his place among today's top fact-based fiction authors, and U.S. News and World Report hailed him as a "modern-day Nostradamus."
Joel regularly speaks with leaders around the world about geopolitical and religious freedom issues. In the last two years alone, he has met face-to-face with President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pence, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Jordanian King Abdullah II, Egyptian president el-Sisi, the crown prince of Abu Dhabi, and the crown prince of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
His novels have been read by Vice President Pence, Secretary of State Pompeo, former President George W. Bush, former CIA director Porter Goss, former senior White House foreign policy advisor Jason Greenblatt, former Delta Force commander Jerry Boykin, Jordanian King Abdullah II, and dozens of members of the U.S. House and Senate, among other national and world leaders, generals and intelligence officials.
He has appeared on hundreds of radio and TV programs in the U.S., Canada and around the world, and has been profiled by the New York Times, the Washington Times and the Jerusalem Post.
A well-known evangelical in the U.S., he is the founder and chairman of The Joshua Fund, a nonprofit educational and humanitarian relief organization dedicated to educating and mobilizing Christians to "bless Israel and her neighbors in the name of Jesus, according to Genesis 12:1-3." New York Times Magazine recently called Joel "a powerful force in the evangelical movement."
Rosenberg is the grandson of Orthodox Jews who escaped czarist Russia in the early 1900s and comes from a Jewish background on his father's side and a Gentile background on his mother's side. He and his wife, Lynn, are dual U.S.-Israeli citizens. They made aliyah in 2014 and live with their sons in Jerusalem, Israel.
