Special media: 10-minute video clip from the film, “Abraham” near end of the first session, and 14-minute video clip from “Ee-Taow!” at the end of the second session

Presenting Scripture from Genesis to Revelation as a single story, Operation WorldView begins with The Story of His Glory, a thrilling overview of the Bible.

“I was deeply moved in a brand new way by this God-centered teaching,” says Werner Mischke. “I believe The Story of His Glory, by Steven Hawthorne, is the best single overview of Scripture in article form that exists in Christian literature today.”

In The Story of His Glory, Steven Hawthorne says, “Worship fulfills the love of God. God loves people so vastly that He…wants to bring them into an honored nearness to Him.” Werner Mischke and Bob Schindler are teaching this drama of worship and love, The Story of His Glory, as part one of Operation WorldView.

Key ideas taught:

"The Bible is the astounding drama of God’s love drawing the worship of the nations."

"Jesus Christ is the crescendo of the story of God’s glory.
He will have bought and brought people from every tribe and tongue to honor the Father."

"God reveals His glory to all peoples in order to receive glory from all creation.”

Ancient Abraham is our "grandfather;" we are in The Story!
