Because if the tomb is empty—then anything is possible.
In his first book, Joby Martin, Lead Pastor of The Church of Eleven22, dives deep into scripture and traces the story of salvation by highlighting the seven mountains throughout scripture where God manifests himself. As he describes each encounter with God, Martin shows us how the interaction on each mountain laid the groundwork for the sacrifice of Christ on Calvary, and shows what God revealed about Himself in the process. He illuminates seven familiar passages, unveiling how God's plan for Christ's sacrifice is threaded throughout scripture, and shows why Christ's resurrection—impossible, unbelievable—means that nothing is too hard for our God. Ultimately, he asks readers, Do you live every day of your life as if the tomb is empty—or as though Jesus is still hanging on that cross?
Over the years of ministry, Karl has coached a multi-racial track team in South Africa, launched two college/career ministries that grew rapidly and thrived spiritually, spoke nationally at marriage conferences with Family Life for 11 years, and led a dynamic church that grew to be the largest in the state of Alaska. This church was featured on the front page of the New York Times (Nov. 23rd, 2007) for its strategic outreach and innovation.
Karl is currently the weekday morning host on Moody Radio's "Karl & Crew Mornings," WMBI 90.1 FM, Chicago (5 am – 9 am), and is also the Lead Pastor of 180 Chicago – believing God that "greater things are yet to come." He is married to Junanne (1987), and they have two adult children.
