## Resource

It's the conclusion of a two-part interview we recorded in 2005, our first discussion with the late Dr. Michael S. Heiser, a Bible scholar with a Ph.D. in Biblical Hebrew and Ancient Semitic Languages. This is P.I.D. 101, a primer in the nature of the spiritual war in which we find ourselves. To wit: What is the Divine Council? What implications does the Divine Council model have for Christian theology? Why should we care? In addition to his biblical studies, Mike is the author of The Facade , a mind-blowing novel about the UFO phenomenon that includes his research in great detail. It's a great read, and he includes a bibliography with some great sources for further study.
