Blessed Are Those Who Hunger and Thirst for Righteousness (Martin Luther) – Beatitudes Series
Martin was a tormented soul. He practiced self-harm for religious purposes because he thought he had to stop sinning to be acceptable to God. He punished his body by sleeping on the bare floor of his room, without blankets, even in the bone-chilling cold of German winter. And sometimes, he would lie out in the snow for long periods. He fasted to the point of emaciation, and he would beat himself with a whip. He began every day before 2am and prayed seven times a day. Martin was looking for something that all of us, even in our modern world, are looking for. Join me for Martin’s story in our program, “ Blessed are Those Who Hunger and Thirst After Righteousness.

White Island – Surviving a Volcanic Eruption
100% Pure New Zealand. Its unparalleled scenic beauty and unique outdoor activities make it one of the most desirable places to live. In fact, Auckland, the largest city in New Zealand, tops that world ranking. But Auckland has an ominous secret: it sits on over 50 volcanoes.
