Bombs Dropping Will Give You Some Perspective

JeffNovember 27, 2023

If you’re reading this newsletter, there’s a good chance your life is pretty good. That can be said for most people living in America. I am writing this article from a hotel room in Jordan where my wife and I, along with our tour group of 44 people, fled across the Israel border the day after Hamas started shooting rockets into Israel. We spent a day hunkered down in our hotel in Jerusalem before loading on a bus and heading north toward the Jordanian border to escape into safety. About an hour… read more

JeffNovember 27, 2023
