In his book, Why I Stand With Israel, Marshall lays out seven core reasons why supporting the Jewish state matters. The book, however, is less a political treatise and more a personal testimony rooted in biblical conviction, historical awareness, and firsthand experience.
Raised in a Christian home and later embracing his Jewish heritage on his father’s side, Marshall’s connection to Israel has long been part of his identity. His travels through Auschwitz and the Holy Land—guided by Holocaust survivors like Irving Roth—cemented that connection. “Steel was made in my bones the day I stood at Auschwitz,” he says. “I will never waiver in my support for the Jewish people having the biblical, legal, and spiritual right to their homeland.”
Marshall argues that standing with Israel isn’t about partisanship—it’s about understanding history, faith, and humanity. Citing Romans 11, he views the Jewish people as spiritually foundational to Christianity. But his case extends beyond theology: he calls attention to geopolitical alliances, global antisemitism, and the resilience of a people who have survived millennia of persecution.
A best-selling author with four published books, two more on the way, and his first screenplay in development, Marshall is a creative force. He’s also an actor, producer, and business consultant. Yet, his pro-Israel advocacy stands out as his most impassioned mission.
Marshall’s ambitions reach beyond publishing. He envisions producing films and even stepping into politics to influence legislation that supports Israel. “People need hope and encouragement,” he says. “As a Christian, I use my faith to offer that peace and hope that this world simply cannot give.”
For now, though, his focus is on getting the book into readers’ hands. “Book sales, book sales, book sales,” he says with a smile. “If everyone around the world had a Coca-Cola in one hand and one of my books in the other, that would be a dream come true.”
Why I Stand With Israel is available now on Amazon. Whether readers share his faith or not, Marshall invites them to examine the deeper “why” behind one of the most debated topics of our time.
“I love all people,” he adds. “I just also love the truth—even if I’m the only person in the room standing who agrees with it.”
