audience.
Thanks to Carrie and Zeke and also to Stephanie Reis—you are dear friends, and I appreciate your prayers and wise counsel. Thanks also to Carrie for her insights into Israel’s security situation.
To all the voices for freedom in the Middle East, especially the region’s persecuted Christians: thank you for your boldness, courage, and resilience. You are an inspiration.
To all of my friends in Fox Chase: I was forged in the iron of Philadelphia, and no matter where I go, I never forget. Thank you as always.
To the reader: if you are a bit down after taking in the very heavy subject matter in this book, don’t be. Here’s the good news: as the world feels like it is going to hell and evil is on the march, God still sits on the Throne.
Check out this passage from Psalm 37, which I kept reminding myself of while writing this book:
“The wicked plot against the righteous and gnash their teeth at them; but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for He knows their day is coming. The wicked draw the sword and bend the bow to bring down the poor and needy, to slay those whose ways are righteous. But their swords will pierce their own hearts, and their bows will be broken.”
One day, hopefully soon, ISIS will be defeated. And goodness will prevail. You can take it to the bank.
God keeps His promises and is always faithful. Thank you, Lord. For everything.
