From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Relationship Goals . . . Will you be remembered as a person who claimed to follow God but liked to play it safe? Or as a person who lived your life out on the limb and trusted God enough to live in crazy faith?
 
Noah looked crazy when he started building the ark . . . until it started raining. It was crazy for Moses to lead a nation of people into the desert away from Egypt . . . until the Red Sea parted. It was crazy to believe that a fourteen-year-old virgin would give birth to the Son of God . . . until Mary held Jesus in her arms.
 
There are many things that seem normal or average today that at one point in time seemed absolutely crazy. Smartphones, Wi-Fi, and even the electric light bulb were all groundbreaking, history-making inventions that started out as crazy ideas. Our see-it-to-believe-it generation tends to have a hard time exercising true faith—one that steps out, takes action, and sees mountain-moving results. Many of us would rather play it safe and stand on the sidelines, but it’s crazy faith that helps us see God move and reveals His promises.
 
In Crazy Faith, Pastor Michael Todd shows us how to step out in faith and dive into the purposeful life of trusting God for the impossible. Even if you have to start with baby faith or maybe faith, you can become empowered to let go of your lazy faith, trust God through your hazy faith, and learn to live a lifestyle of crazy faith. With powerful stories of modern-day faith warriors who take their cues from biblical heroes, Michael Todd equips you to
 
• believe for the impossible
• choose hope over fear
• be alert to the voice of God
• cope with loss and doubt
• develop a deeper level of trust in God
• speak faith-filled declarations
• inspire crazy faith in others
 
God’s not looking for somebody to give Him all the reasons why His plans can’t happen. He’s looking for somebody to believe they will happen. In fact, He has so much He wants to do through you. The question is, Are you crazy enough to believe it?

*Includes a downloadable PDF containing a worksheet from the book

Stay far away from normal when it comes to matters of faith.

Will you be remembered as a person who claimed to follow God but liked to play it safe? Or as a person who lived your life out on the limb and trusted God enough to act with crazy faith?

In this audio Bible study, bestselling author and pastor Michael Todd reveals how to step out in faith and dive into the purposeful life of trusting God for the impossible.

There are many things that seem normal today that at one point in time seemed crazy. History-making inventions that started out as crazy ideas. People who risked everything to stand up for what they believed. But our see-it-to-believe-it generation tends to have a hard time exercising true faith–one that steps out, takes action, and sees mountain-moving results. Many of us would rather play it safe and stand on the sidelines. But it’s crazy faith that helps us see God move and reveals his promises.

Even if we have to start with baby faith or maybe faith, we can become empowered to let go of our lazy faith, trust God through our hazy faith, and learn to live a lifestyle of crazy faith.

Still in New York, Katie is working on creating an additional base for herself and her team as Pandora contemplates how she can mess up Calvin’s love life. What will happen when Katie meets the woman who means the most to her? And what is Calvin going to do, since the gang in Mexico is not giving up? Dark is the night when the heroes come out to play.

Katie has the ability and desire to see Brock again and show him and his guys a good time.

Will that include any special time for the two of them? (Pandora hopes so).

That stranger left a message about a sword and armor…but is Pandora willing to help or does she even know what he was talking about?

Someone is stalking Calvin’s girlfriend. He has to ask a couple of humans he respects for a little help–even if they won’t remember who he is.

Even in the middle of a war, humans will always want some hope for the future.

Born from the fertile imagination of bestselling author Michael Anderle . . .
There is a group engaging four new mercenaries, prepping them with simulated operations in the ZOO.
How come?
Courtney has approved a new member of her team in California and Sal isn’t sure it was a good idea.
This time, there is another group learning what it takes to plunder the ZOO. Can they live through it?
Salinger Jacobs is working to build his company as fast as possible. Will he make mistakes he can’t think his way out of?
Sometimes, you find that your best relationships have your back.

Fountain of Youth, or Valley of Death?
While eating his supper of microwave popcorn, PhD student-genius Salinger Jacobs is grabbed from his apartment in California, stuck on a C-130 military plane, and sent to the Sahara Desert to witness the reality of the ZOO for himself.
With the life expectancy of untrained scientists working inside the ZOO measured in hours, he has a lot to learn. Fast.
First order of business? How do you shoot a gun, and just how much is that plant worth?
The government needs the best of the best military and scientific minds working out how to pull the secrets from the ZOO, while keeping the deadly fauna and flora in check.
There is one major problem, Salinger doesn’t even have a PhD.
If he can stay alive long enough, he might be able to afford something besides packaged microwave popcorn to eat. That is a big if.

Lieutenant Gregor Popov is on trial for his efforts along with Heavy Metal to save the Russian Scientists.
Will they go after Sal, Madigan, and Courtney next?
Will Popov get a light sentence, or something worse?
Savage has been tasked with an operation, hidden from everyone. Unfortunately, the operation requires him to work with Molina.
To make a deal, Courtney must request help.
This time, nothing is taken for granted except the ZOO will do what it always does, kill people.

The team has to come to grips with a killer being allowed to live. The alien has to deal with the threat of paperwork. Will this effort to allow Juntto to redeem himself work? Or will Katie need to figure out how to kill him for good, when even the angels from above could only place him on ice before?

Juntto is used to getting his way, but has he met his match with Angie?

He wants to be Emperor of his own country. How can she convince him being an Emperor isn’t all it is cracked up to be?

Pandora doesn’t play by the rules, nor will Katie. When Moloch attacks, the General asks Katie and Pandora to kick the gates of Hell in. Can they do it and live?

Sometimes the good guys win and the bad guys end up dead.
But that isn’t how it always goes down. In the ZOO, you are either fast and lucky or you are dead.
Heavy Metal has a few videos that are out gaining attention in parts of the world, and that doesn’t bode well for them.
Some people are noticing that Sal and his team have someone extra-special working with them, and they want a piece of her . . . or all of her.
This time, it’s back to basics for Heavy Metal with just Sal, Madigan, and Courtney. Are they enough to save their friend?
When the enemy is better than you, move to a fighting ground you have more experience in. The ZOO is agnostic-it will kill everyone it can.

The rules have changed. Now the Damned can go on vacation and even hook up. Without Pandora near him, can Calvin get a little action in Cabo?

Unfortunately, the general has a different demand for Katie, and it’s coming from the whole industry.

Requested in New York to work with the NYPD, Katie is working a side job or two. Her mercenary skills are useful, and profitable, for other types of hard jobs. And this time, the Damned can help a child.

There will be hell to pay when Katie and Pandora come calling, with no quarter for the demons.

The War of the DAMNED is coming to a close, and Moloch has been tasked with winning by Lucifer. Juntto is in frozen storage as Katie and her team try to figure out if he can be saved, and, if so, how? With the war heating up and other demons getting into the action to garner acclaim, the DAMNED have their work cut out for them. In the end, Moloch stops trying to get others to do the hard work and takes Katie on himself. Can she and Pandora beat the Archdemon?

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A candid, inspiring guide to finding lasting love and sustaining a healthy relationship by getting real about your goals—based on the viral, multi-million-view sermon series about dating, marriage, and sex

“No matter where you are and no matter what stage of life you are in, Relationship Goals will be a game changer.”—Levi Lusko

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY COSMOPOLITAN

You scroll through photo after photo of happy couples and think, I want a relationship like that! The thing is, those intimate relationships are a mirage—the closer you get to them, the more you realize they aren’t real at all. So what does a real relationship look like? And how do you get there?

In Relationship Goals, Pastor Michael Todd digs deep to give you good news and real-life ideas for making the most of your most important relationships. Take a look at

• what it means to choose intentional dating over recreational dating
• how to move on from mistakes you’ve made in the past 
• why love gets stronger after marriage
• what the Bible has to say about sex (hot take: it’s more sizzling than you think)
• why the best friendships have God at the center

Whether you are married, single, or it’s complicated, aiming for the right targets will make all the difference in finding true satisfaction. As it turns out, God’s got the best relationship goals of all for your life. Why settle for less?

ECPA BESTSELLER • Based on the #1 New York Times bestseller Relationship Goals and the author’s wildly popular sermon series, this 30-day challenge helps you take your relationship from good to great!

Feeling tired of romantic relationships with no purpose—or looking to put more spark in your long-term love? Pastor Michael Todd draws on the themes of Relationship Goals to give you a month of biblically rich “let’s go deeper” challenges designed just for couples.

We’re not talking simple date ideas or tips on what flowers to buy. We’re talking daily Scripture, intentional questions, and victorious outcomes as you get real about seeking God’s goals for you individually and together.

As Michael looks at three key values of romantic relationships—purpose, healing, and oneness—he helps you find answers to questions like these:

• How can we communicate with greater intentionality?
• How does our relationship affect who we’re becoming as individuals?
• How are we going to fight well, with our greater purpose in mind?
• How do we find healing for deep-seated issues?
• How do our spiritual lives affect our life as a couple?

Take the next thirty days to create new habits that will set you down solidly on the road to meeting your relationship goals. At the end of this month-long challenge, you can look back on the goals you’ve already met and set new ones to look forward to. So get ready to win in relationship . . . together. Do you accept the challenge?

Can you get your PhD in the ZOO?
Salinger Jacobs treats others as he is treated. Screw him over, and he might hold stuff back. You have his back? He will have yours.
When a fellow scientist is screwed over by her company, she seeks out his fledgling Mercenary company to see if they can use another smart mind. Since he obviously didn’t want her body.
With opportunities coming at him and his partner Madigan faster than they can handle, another mind might be just what Heavy Metal needs. But will it come with too many complications?
In the ZOO you always expect the unexpected. Will this be true for relationships? Can he trust his partner with his secret?
Salinger Jacobs is working to build his company as fast as possible. Will he make a few mistakes he can’t think his way out of?
Sometimes, it isn’t what you know from reading books that helps you succeed.

No time like the present to figure out one’s future. That’s a nice platitude, but what if you are a demon? And the former Queen of Hell? Pandora saved an angel, Katie, when she could have stayed in hell and all but assured Earth would fall to Moloch. But now she has a conundrum. Further complicating things, Katie is acting very out of character, and Pandora needs to help her friend find her bearings once more.

Moloch and Baal have put multiple plans into action, and when they finally find where the humans are manufacturing the special weapons, they have a new plan to use them against the Damned.

Will this plan be the one that puts an end to Katie and Pandora?

But Katie has other things to worry about when a large creature awakens–and knows how to speak demon. This time, the Navy gets involved. The challenge? Their missiles aren’t all that helpful.
