    October 7th: Interview w/ Yair Pinto.

    A Special Art of Heaven Interview with Yair Pinto on October 7, 2026, 3-years since Israel experienced one of the darkest days in its history when Hamas terrorists launched a devastating attack, killing approximately 1,200 people and taking hundreds hostage. Yair Pinto is a TV host, journalist, and Director of Operations at TBN Israel — one of the world's leading Christian broadcasting networks. Yair Pinto is also a war correspondent, IDF reservist, and author reporting faith, courage, and the real story from Israel's front lines and leads groundbreaking coverage of the Holy Land. As one of TBN Israel's leading voices, he delivers engaging stories that highlight the beauty and complexity of life in Israel. With a background in media and communication, Yair Pinto is a trusted voice in bringing Israeli culture, history, and spirituality to the forefront of Christian broadcasting. As a Jewish follower of Jesus broadcasting from Jerusalem, Yair offers unique insights into the region's complex dynamics. In addition to his media expertise at TBN Israel, Yair has a distinguished military background as a Captain (Res.) in the Israel Defense Forces' Armored Corps. Yair grew up in Jerusalem and came of age during the Second Intifada. He served roughly five years in the IDF, becoming a tank officer with deployments on the northern and Gaza borders. He joined TBN Israel as Director of Operations four months before October 7, 2023 — and when war broke out, he began filming reflections from the front on his phone. After he was drafted on October 8, 2023, he saw how quickly the media shifted against Israel and wanted to do something to spread the truth. Serving on the front lines enabled him to share the truth directly with believers around the world, so they can pray and support Israel. His perspective is enriched by his upbringing in Jerusalem, near Bethlehem, where he developed a deep understanding of both Israeli and Palestinian communities. He is author of Boots on the Ground: A War Journal of an IDF Reservist. A gripping firsthand account of war, faith, and truth from the front lines of modern Israel — from emergency mobilization on the northern border to combat operations in Gaza, and the spiritual battles that accompany the physical ones. Host: JONNY Brumit

    25th Anniversary of 911 with Kamal Saleem.

    This episode covers 25th Anniversary of the 911 attacks on the United States of America with special interview with Kamal Saleem who was born to a large Sunni Muslim family in the heart of the Middle East. Kamal was recruited by the Muslim Brotherhood at an early age and completed his first mission to Israel at the age of seven. Kamal was also recruited by the Palestinian Liberation Organization (The PLO) and other radical Muslim groups. The many years of his radical Islamist training resulted in Kamal mastering every form of divisive extremist tactics. Kamal left his family and home in the Middle East as a young man to enter his mission field: The United States. He brought with him a tremendous passion to convert as many Christians and Jews as possible for the glory of Allah. He implemented his plan and worked effectively in what we now know as “Stealth” cultural Jihad (Al-Kitmen). In 1985, Kamal’s world turned upside down when he was seriously injured in an automobile accident. A Christian man tended to Kamal at the accident scene, making sure he got the medical treatment he needed. Kamal’s orthopedic surgeon and physical therapist were also Christian men whom over a period of several months ministered the unconditional love of Jesus Christ to him as he recovered. The love and sacrificial giving of these men caused Kamal to cry out to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob acknowledging his need for the Savior. Kamal has since become a man on a new mission, as an Ambassador for Christ, the one true and living God. Kamal having come from among them is uniquely equipped with tremendous insight into today’s world situation with a wealth of knowledge concerning the true culture and agenda of Radical Islam. He is well versed in the Holy Bible, Koran, Hadith and Sira (Shariah Law).  He believes radical Islam is the most broadly disguised present danger to Christians, Jews and all non-Muslim people of the world. Kamal carries a message from God to awaken the Church through the truth, education, and relationship. Host: JONNY Brumit Co-hosts: Manny Fernandez, Kamal Saleem
