Thank you for the Pule, Mamie.

Folks, we've got an important announcement.

Welcome to the Eric Mettaxas show with your host, Eric Mettaxas. Folks, we've got an important announcement. The announcement is John Zmirak is alive and well, and he is my guest right now. John Zmirak, my friend, welcome. Thank you, Eric. It's great to talk to you again. It's been a while. I've been finishing a book. You've been finishing a book. I mean, so it's the first time you and I have read books in a while. And it's good. We were both finishing the same book, The Sound of the Fury by William Faulkner. It's incomprehensible modernist sludge. And John and I read it so that you don't have to. Ladies and gentlemen, please avoid Faulkner at all costs. That's the book that John and I

were finishing. Just kidding. I was writing a book and John, you were writing books. And one of your

saying we're finishing books. We're we're finishing writing books. John, can you tell us what is the

book that you have just been finishing? Yeah. It's called Standing Watch, God, Guns, and the Government, from the founders to Kyle

Rittance.

And it comes up.

I can tell the audience, I read most of that book that you've been working on because

you sent it to me.

And the least you can do, ladies and

gentlemen, is buy our books. John's books, I got to tell you, John, when I read it, you know,

I want everybody in America to read it. So I just want to, even though it's not available

for sale yet, I want people to understand that

it's a very important book, very, very important book. I'll give you a brief thumbnail.

It explains the connection between our First Amendment religious freedom and our Second Amendment

gun rights. It turns out they were intertwined,

not just from the very founding of America, but for hundreds of years before that. And that,

in fact, the Christian vision of the human person implies the right of self-defense against criminals,

against terrorists, against terrorists.

It is absolutely amazing.
