Welcome to The Tipping Point Show. I'm Jimmy Evans. I have a great show for you today. I'm joined by Lee Cummings.

We're going to be talking about his new book on why Israel matters. It is a great book and critical issue to understand in the times that we're living in.

In the subscriber-only portion of the show, we're going to be talking about current events in Israel.

Prime Minister Netanyahu has told President Biden how and when

Israel will attack Iran, an incredible development in the Gog-Megod coalition that just took place,

and the governor of Michigan brazenly mocked Christianity and then denies it. All this is coming up,

but right now I want to introduce Lee Cummings. Lee has been one of my closest friends

for the past 30 years. He pastors one of the great churches in America, Radiant Church in Kalamazoo,

Michigan. He's an author and popular conference and church speaker. He's also a regular contributor

on endtimes.com, and he's joining me today to talk about his important new book about why Israel matters.

Lee, thank for joining me today.

It's a pleasure.

Good to have you here.

That's great to be there.

I love your book, Why Israel Matters.

You know, I know that I've heard pastors and preachers talk about why Israel matters in bits and pieces.

Right.

But your book is the first book that really addresses head on why Israel matters in bits and pieces. Right. But your book is the first book that really addresses

head on why Israel matters in your book. It's not a huge book. It's very readable for people,

but it contains everything important that a person needs to know about why Israel matters. And you

start in your book talking about why Israel matters to you. Why does Israel matter to you? Yeah. My point in writing the book was to make it really attainable because it's such an important message right now, especially in the day we're living in for the church. And I wanted to make it something that anybody can pick up and read. And the title, why Israel matters really starts with why it matters to me, and it matters

to me.
