Hey, Shalom everyone. I'm Amir Sarfati and with me today here in Southern California, Pastor Barry Stagner.

Shalom Barry. Shalom, Amir, good to see you this morning.

Good to see you. Pastor Barry, would you do us the honor and start with a prayer?

Absolutely. Lord, we are so grateful for your word.

We thank you that we can look to it and find not just answers, but also hope,

direction.

We thank you for the promise to order our steps.

And God, we pray that this time would be productive and fruitful for your namesake and kingdom

as we examine the events happening in our world

that tell us of the living and powerful Word of God and how its accuracy is important to us

and how we can know the lateness of the hour. And God, we just ask for your blessing on the word spoken

and the ears of the hear.

In Jesus' name.

Amen.

Amen.

So Pastor Barry, we haven't done this for quite a while because of the traveling and things

that are related to our cruise in Alaska, which we will talk about later.

But a lot of things have been happening lately.

Yeah, they have, and Amir, I was thinking it's interesting that we've seen the development of the 12-day war,

all the things that happened there, much talk about Bible prophecy, and then things in some facets

cooled down as far as the military exchanges,

though there's still activity obviously going on in Iran.
