The Bible from 30,000 Feet, Part 1
Having grown up in a Catholic home, Skip Heitzig wasn’t aware he could have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. So, when he sat down to watch Rev. Billy Graham preach on TV in 1973, God convicted him of his sin and he became a follower of the Lord. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson interviews Pastor Heitzig of Calvary Church in Albuquerque, New Mexico about his testimony and book entitled The Bible From 30,000 Feet. Taking the acronym FLIGHT, Skip’s book explores the Facts, Landmarks, Itinerary, Gospel, History, and Travel Tips of all 66 books in 52 chapters. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 says, “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
