In the summer of 1969, Buzz Aldrin had a mission. His goal was to fly 240 million miles from earth and, along with fellow astronaut Neil Armstrong, be the first to walk on the moon.

In this five-session study, bestselling author and pastor Levi Lusko journeys back in time and forward in hope, using the 1969 lunar mission as an analogy of the metamorphosis that was unleashed by the man from Galilee.

That's hardly the severe image many in the church project to the world. A Joyful Noise takes Psalm 100 phrase by phrase to discover the joy in true religious practice. In this study we discover a joyful ...

He prayed that it would not rain as a judgment for Israel’s sins, and it did not rain for three and a half years. He challenged Baal’s prophets to a contest to prove that ...

Quite simply, if God can love, choose, and accept a character like Jacob, then he will accept me, who has failed him continually for the past 60 years.
