Hope for This Present Crisis - Part 1

Michael Youssef was born in Egypt and lived in Lebanon and Australia before coming to the United States. He fulfilled a childhood dream by becoming an American citizen. Dr. Youssef earned degrees from Moore College in Sydney, Australia, and Fuller Theological Seminary in California, along with a Ph.D. in social anthropology from Emory University. He founded The Church of The Apostles in 1987 with fewer than 40 members, which has since grown to a congregation of 3,000. Their church launched “Leading the Way,” an international tele-evangelistic ministry, which is now broadcast over 13,000 times per week on 6 continents and in 25 languages. Dr. Youssef has authored 40 books, including Saving Christianity?: The Danger in Undermining Our Faith—And What You Can Do about It, Life-Changing Prayers, and The Third Jihad: Overcoming Radical Islam’s Plan for the West. His most current title is Hope for This Present Crisis: The Seven-Step Path to Restoring a World Gone Mad. Michael and his wife, Elizabeth, reside in Atlanta, Georgia, and they have four grown children and 10 grandchildren.
