    In 2015 I was in a very dark place in my life. I was angry with God and then my job as a security officer directed me to Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, CA. Many staff there attempted to speak to me about Christ and I’d avoid all of them. Then one day Pastor Levi Lusko was at Harvest as a guest speaker. His book Through The Eyes of Lion was just released. I asked what the deal with this book was and someone told me a very short story. Then I heard his sermon and it softened my heart. Soon after that and through the prayer of many great people, I converted Christian and accepted the Lord. I thought I was hurting and here was this pastor speaking uplifting words to others. The Lord is in this family’s hearts truly. 🙏🏼

    Loosing their 5 year old daughter, days before Christmas, yet going on to continue serving others, when many understandably expected cancelled Christmas services: Pastor Levi did not cancel, nor let satan have his way. I have never watched a sermon show the depth of human suffering, amidst personal tradgedy while simultaneously exemplifying the power/strength God gives an obviously broken/willing heart. Pastor Levi chose to serve and glorify God. "When we are weak, He is strong." Pray4 Luskos

    I lost my son this year through an asthma attack. and being a Christian I felt like I needed to be strong in the lord , yet I couldn’t. I have just read your book Levi ( Through the eyes of a Lion) and it has really encouraged me to keep surrendering to our lord, he is our only hope, Psalm 91 was my refuge throughout all of this experience, Make the lord your refuge, he will rescue us and hold us up. He will send his angels to protect us. There is no hope that this world can offer us in our grief. Yes that verse in Hebrews He is an anchor to our soul “ God Bless you and your family. Thank you Our hope is built on nothing less than Jesus blood.

    This is my pastor and his wife. I’m new to their Portland church. I am currently reading his book, Take Back Your Life. In it, he describes this very service where they honor little Lenya. I love these two people and am thankful to have found them and Fresh Life Church. God bless my whole BIG Fresh Life family! It feels so good to belong and have people to worship with again!🙏💖

    pastor Levi, you're one of my Favorite Preacher, Started when I saw you the first time preaching at elevation, I followed your sermons online. And I watched today one of Pastor Steven Furtick's sermon , and he mentioned about you and Your daughter Lenya , I immediately visit this and i found this moment. This is like many years ago, But Pastor, Lenya is helping me with my Faith right now. She's like telling me that
    " Hey Faith works" "Keep believing and Christ is alive"
    Thank you for your Family, you are a Living Testimony of Christ Love ❤️
    I love your family Pastor, You touches lives around the world. You're helping me , my Faith. I am grateful for you!
    I am blessed I've watched this. My Soul is blessed ❤️

    I have 5 children 8 years old and under. So many days it is hard to get up and take care of life. Now that I have come to know your family through online, I can conquer any day. If you can rise after the suffering your are experiencing so will I. I wish we had a Fresh Life in Phoenix but online is wonderful. Thank you for everything and sharing with all!

    May God continue to bless you and hold you up through your Saturday--we're in it together... 👼

    What an amazing testimony of faith, truth, love and eternal perspective. In the wake of suffering and loss, there is hope and strength in Christ. This brought tears and how I ached for them and the families of Newtown, CT. Their tribute to Lenya's life of 5 years and testimony of God's love is bringing God glory. Isn't that what life is about? True joy comes in loving God with "all your heart, soul, strength, and mind". He is the anchor of our soul, firm and secure. Hebrews 6:19

    Praying for all of you! Lenya will live on in the hearts of all who had the privilege of seeing this! Her big sister, Olivia, needs lots of love and hugs. God is with her and she is a beautiful tribute to Him.
    By now she is much older and hopefully doing so well. With your love and guidance, surely she is. Clover will be light to the world as well as are both of you! Thank you for all you do for our world in Jesus name! We love you all!

    I can’t even imagine what it feels like to lose a child. Your faith is encouraging and I know Christ holds your daughter close to Him. It’s pretty amazing that your little lion now walks along with the Great Lion of Judah. May God bless you and give you strength everyday until you reunite.

    I can't imagine. I am watching you and knowing you have to be in shock when you posted this. Having lost a brother at a young age from asthma and losing an adult grandson almost 2 years ago this Monday, I still couldn't have done what you're doing here. The grace from Jesus in this moment, all glory to God.

    Your faith through such a tragedy is simply inspirational! If you can go through this, which in most people's opinion (including mine) is the worst thing possible, but come out stronger in your faith that speaks volumes :) I'm sorry for your loss but celebrating what this loss has done for strengthening your family and faith and leading others to Christ. Without him there is no hope and without hope we have NOTHING! Bless you Lusko Family
