I don't believe in positive thinking as a replacement for God but as a response to God. My goal isn't that you would see your metaphorical cup as half full: I want you to see it as constantly overflowing!

Levi Lusko
Levi Lusko ist ein US-amerikanischer evangelikaler Pastor und Autor, der 2007 die Fresh Life Church im Bundesstaat Montana gründete. Er wurde vor allem durch Bücher und Predigten bekannt, die Themen wie persönliche Trauer, psychische Gesundheit und christliche Lebensführung in einer modernen Alltagssprache behandeln. Heutigen Bibellesern vermittelt er praxisorientierte und seelsorgliche Zugänge zur Schrift, wobei Kritiker mitunter eine Überbetonung motivationaler Elemente gegenüber theologischer Tiefe bemängeln.
