Hey everybody, Erica here with Team Lucado.

Wanted to share some exciting news with you all, Max's brand new book you were made for this moment.

Inspired by the timeless and timely story of Esther is available now wherever books are sold. Hi everybody. Max Lakato here from my home to yours.

whoever believes in him will not perish, but have everlasting life. Would you like to talk about

the wonderful simplicity of belief?

A young girl was holding the high end of the rope and she said this to me,

Trust me, translated into this backward leap off a, yes, 500-foot cliff, wearing a belay harness.

And what in the world did I get myself into expression on my face?

Now, some people love repelling. I've talked to them.

They relished that stomach in the throat sensation.
