Brian Sanders has long sought to express his view on why one should stand with Israel. Given the current reality of such division on this tiny nation, if one does not understand the relevance of Israel, I would strongly encourage you to listen to a man who has focused intensely on the topic and documented his views and why he stands with Israel. Thank you, Brian for gracing us with your time and knowledge.

We have observed that sometimes the most positive feedback we have received has been for those brief episodes which were totally unplanned and spontaneous. This happens to be one of those times. We were obviously having some audio issues at the beginning a few times where we were not hearing each other and talking at the same time. Glad that it ceased doing that pretty quickly once Rosalee had her microphone turned up. You can tell that we were not in official mode when we did this! Yikes! Rosalee and Pam are just hanging loose in this episode, as it started out as another unintentional recording and then morphed into something else. Those seem to be the most fun!

Wow. What an experience it has been to get here at the end of this topic. It has not been an easy journey to share this book and the experience of Michael. I can only wonder how difficult it must have been for him to come forward and share his story at the time this was taking place. A special thanks to our friend Archbishop Ken McNatt for agreeing to come back for this episode and share what scripture says on this topic.

We held off for almost a full year after recording the first two episodes before we are releasing all three episodes, one a week. In some instances, this story is not for the faint of heart.

The title of the book is so misleading and causes some people to jump to conclusions. This book is a beautiful testimony, but to be clear, this happened in the 1980's. So, a few things may have changed over the decades, but some things never change.

In the summer of 2023, we recorded two of a three part discussion of the book "Michelle Danielle is Dead." We finally got to record Part 3 of the discussion earlier this year. You will notice that we referenced some events which were taking place then. This story is based on the real life of a man named Michael. We can't give away how it ends. But, tune in and you will hear the good, the bad, the heartache and the finale of the book over the three recordings. They don't write them like this anymore. The book was written in 1986 by my friend Marie Rice.

I respect the work of Dr. Barri Cae Seif and her husband Jeffrey. Whatever your opinions are about the Middle East, and we know there is a broad range of varying opinions, she is someone who is connected to many of the people working in the land.

It's been one heck of a ride this season of podcasting! We never thought we would get past the first season, but somehow, we have made it through two seasons. Believe it or not, we have a third season in the works. Listen in as we reflect on our guests this season and some of those who will be in our forthcoming season.
