Asleep at the Wheel will jolt you, trouble you, and trample your senses and sensibilities from start to finish. With the Pentagon and World Trade Center tragedies as horrible reminders, John R. Hanny describes the evil forces that plague the United States today. He then dares to take the next frightening steps that fear prevents most readers to even think about.Corrupt political power, greed, and religious fanaticism are aligned against the virtuous honor and unswerving allegiance to respect the dignity of all humankind. This is a consuming tale that clearly distinguishes the good guys from the bad N for the most part.Hanny's prescient insights about worldwide terrorism are unnerving in both scope and intensity, but his tale is bolstered by hope, determination, and resolve. After being frightened by extraordinarily heinous events and lifted by heroic deeds, the reader will not easily forget the emotional maelstrom that is Asleep at the Wheel.

A six-foot-seven-inch Jewish hippie from Philadelphia starts a Western swing band in 1970, when country fans hate hippies and Western swing. It sounds like a joke but—more than forty years, twenty-five albums, and nine Grammy Awards later—Asleep at the Wheel is still drawing crowds around the world. The roster of musicians who’ve shared a stage with the Wheel is a who’s who of American popular music—Van Morrison, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, George Strait, Vince Gill, Lyle Lovett, and so many more. And the bandleader who’s brought them all together is the hippie that claimed Bob Wills’s boots: Ray Benson. In this hugely entertaining memoir, Benson looks back over his life and wild ride with Asleep at the Wheel from the band’s beginning in Paw Paw, West Virginia, through its many years as a Texas institution. He vividly recalls spending decades in a touring band, with all the inevitable ups and downs and changes in personnel, and describes the making of classic albums such as Willie and the Wheel and Tribute to the Music of Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys. The ultimate music industry insider, Benson explains better than anyone else how the Wheel got rock hipsters and die-hard country fans to love groovy new-old Western swing. Decades later, they still do.

I believe the word to the American Church in this hour could be summed up in the scripture, "For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God"---a judgment that must first begin, individually. And, since we know, or should know from Scripture, that the unsaved Jew will be unprepared for what is looming on the horizon and referred to in Scripture as "The Time of Jacob's Trouble," it is incumbent upon the Church to be prepared, not only theologically, but in true spiritual maturity, and not only for her own sake, but for the sake of the Jew, and ultimately, for the sake of God's Testimony to His faithfulness to the Everlasting Covenant according to the Eternal Purpose.
