Hey Shalom everyone. I'm Amir Salfati and we're back from Connect here in the Jezrael Valley in Galilee Israel.

And together with me today in Arthur's Corner, Pastor Steve Yon, Shalom Steve. You are at the

land of the frozen and chosen. You're in Parker, Colorado. How are you, my friend? Doing well,

and we are a little frozen here today. It was about 20 degrees Fahrenheit when I got up this morning and drove in.

We have snow on the grass and ice on the road, so a little bit slippery, but made it okay

and excited to be here in the office this morning talking to you.

You know, I envy you. Although I posted a few days ago a photo of the most magnificent rainbow that we just had outside of Kinect,

I still, I must confess, I envy you guys when it comes to snow in January.

However, I would love to see the snow, enjoy it for a couple hours, and then give it back to you because the rest is a big mess and a headache. Don't you think so?

Well, it was wonderful. I know for you to see the rainbow up where you were. I don't think it was quite as fun to see the rainbow down in Ashdod,

judging by what you post on telegram. It'll look like they maybe got a little too much water

down that direction. That's true. So today, both of us are super excited because we're going to talk about my very first book,

which basically brought you into my life as someone who helped me with a book writing.

Because we've known each other before that, but you were tourists that I had.

You were the son of the pastor that I led the tours of his church,

and you were a good friend, and I've got to know you,

and also Jason Elyle, because you guys both co-authored fiction books before, but that's it.

That was Steve Yon, and then something happened.

Yeah.

Yeah, and then you, I was working at the church one day and got a call, and it was my dad saying, hey, if you got some time, can you run down to H.T. Novak's house.

Amir is here and would like to talk with you.

And I said, definitely, get some time with Amir.
