What happens when a boy grows up in the crossfire of Lebanon’s civil war, trains in Israel’s military camps, and survives a bomb blast by a miracle? Pastor Pierre Altunia’s life is a tapestry of danger, loss, and unexpected grace.

From being kidnapped by the PLO to fighting Hezbollah, his story is filled with moments where death seemed certain - until God intervened.

But this is more than a soldier’s memoir. It’s the journey of a man who knew “Christian” only as a label - until relentless love from his wife and a persistent pastor led him to surrender to Yeshua. 

Now leading a vibrant Messianic congregation in northern Israel, Pierre stands as both shepherd and protector, guiding his flock through rockets, war, and the hope of reconciliation between Jew and Gentile.

This is faith forged in fire, hope born in the shadow of conflict, and a call to stand with Israel for the sake of God’s Kingdom.
