About the Author. About the Author Wallace E. Smith Wallace E. Smith (Wally) was born in Los Angeles, California and moved to Las Vegas, Nevada at the age of 8. He gave his life in the service of YHVH at the age of 25. In preparation for pastoral ministry, Wally began teaching Junior and Senior youth at Grapevine Fellowship under the mentorship of the late Bud Higginbotham. In 1994 Wally received his first appointment as Senior Pastor by the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel. September 1996, on the Feast of Tabernacles, Pastor Wally and his wife Kathy and a few faithful Bible students pioneered, what has come to be known as, the House of Israel Fellowship in Las Vegas, Nevada. The House of Israel Fellowship is a free congregation of Messianic Believers recognizing that the sovereignty of the church belongs to King Yeshua, and to Him alone, as guaranteed by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. Pastor Wally and Kathy have both been recognized and Ordained with the Messianic Israel Alliance. Today, Pastor Wally is actively engaged in his continued study of Yeshua s Word, and pastoral duties with the House of Israel Fellowship. Wally also has compiled and edited two previous books: Are Christian Holidays... Holy Days? and, The Revelation of Yeshua, A First Century Look at a First Century Book. His wife, Kathy, recently retired from a rewarding career as a school administrator with the Clark County School District. She now works hand in hand with her husband at the House of Israel. Kathy now has the time to lovingly spoil her grandchildren and to volunteer as a counselor at one of the busiest crisis pregnancy centers in the country. Wally and Kathy will soon happily celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. Batya Ruth Wootten Batya Wootten and her husband, Angus, were early pioneers in the Messianic movement. Decades ago they began publishing the first Messianic Materials Catalogue, created to serve a fledgling new interest in Israel and the Jewish people. Batya read countless books about these subjects so she could write descriptions of them for the catalogue. She discovered the great diversity of opinions about Israel s role and identity. Hungering to truly know the truth of the matter, she began to cry out in desperation to her Heavenly Father and asked Him to show her His truth. As promised, He answered: Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know (Jer 33:3). The Holy One began to open up the Scriptures to her. His answers led to the writing of many books about Israel and her full restoration. Batya s challenging books represent decades of study on the crucial issues of identifying Israel, celebrating her feasts, honoring Torah, and the role of women, and now books about the role of the Holy Spirit, the Ruach haKodesh. Many have given testimony about having been transformed by her writings. Lives are changed as they see the truth about Judah and Ephraim, their broken brotherhood and coming restoration. Batya s emphasis on the need to show mercy and grace to both houses is helping to heal the wounds that began with Israel s division into two Kingdoms. Her book, Israel s Feasts and Their Fullness: Expanded Edition, represents years of meticulous research, study, and prayerful writing. It is a book that is helping Believers to be liberated into glorious celebrations of the feasts. Several people have said of it, This is the best book about the feasts that I have ever read. Her book, Mama s Torah: The Role of Women, has likewise received high acclaim from both men and women. She now offers the book you have in your hands, plus its companion work, The Voice... Hearing the Almighty. Weight: 12.8 ounces, 256 pages, size: 8.9 x 6 0.8 inches
