Today was a very special day for me.

I had the privilege of being a guest on Dr. Chuck Swindoll’s podcast. I have known this giant of the faith for several decades through my years as his tour guide and as CEO of Sar-El Tours & Conferences. But this time, it was different.

I wasn’t hosting him in Israel. Instead, he hosted me at the headquarters of Insight for Living in Frisco, Texas. In years past, he would give me a signed copy of one of his books. This time, I had the privilege of giving him a signed copy of one of mine - _The Elijah Mandate_.

We recorded an hour-long podcast discussing my childhood, my journey to finding Yeshua, my military service, my years as a tour guide, current events, and so much more. How blessed I am to live in the same generation as such a great man of faith!

After the podcast, our team continued on to Maranatha Acres, the home of Lamb & Lion Ministries. There, Tim Moore and Nathan Jones hosted me for several programs about _Until He Comes_, _Exploring Ezekiel_, and _The Elijah Mandate_.

Then, upon returning to my hotel and thinking the day could not possibly get any better, I received wonderful news from Harvest House Publishers: _The Elijah Mandate_ is No. 1 on the New York Times Best Sellers list!

For all His benefits toward me?”
