In Hurricane Lizards and Plastic Squid, biologist Thor Hanson tells the remarkable story of how plants and animals are responding to climate change: adjusting, evolving, and sometimes dying out.

"The climate crisis may at times appear to be happening slowly, but in fact it is happening very quickly - and has become a true planetary emergency....[I]nconvenient truths do not go away just because they are not seen.

Multitudes of people know the Word but they don’t have a revelation of how to apply it to change situations and circumstances. In other words, they have the logos but do not know how to convert it into rhema which pierces through the realm of the spirit to change life circumstances. As a consequence, many run around looking for someone to deliver them yet God made it clear that deliverance comes from the Word. This is due to the fact that too many Christians have never been taught about their inheritance and identity in Christ encapsulated in the Word. Hence, whenever they face challenges...
