Vol. XXIV, No. 5 is a new issue of Darkness to Light Newsletter. In Part Two of our series on biblical sexual ethics, we conclude our study of the “fornication” cognate set. We define the biblical terms for those who practice illicit sexual activity and explore the meaning of “flagrant fornication”—a term describing those who brazenly flout God’s moral order.

The Lord Stood By Me and Gave Me Strength

The Life and Legacy of Gary F. Zeolla;
Author, Bible Translator, Champion Powerlifter

      From powerlifting world records to forty books and a pioneering Bible translation, from battling chronic illness to weathering financial storms and singleness struggles, my life has been an unlikely testament to God’s sustaining grace. In this raw, revelatory autobiography, I pull back the curtain on:

✓ The Making of a Bible Translator – How I created the Analytical-Literal Translation despite health and financial obstacles

✓ Strength Through Struggle – My journey to 15 powerlifting all-time world records amid debilitating conditions

✓ Faith Under Fire – Spiritual practices that sustained me through singleness, dating disasters, and isolation

✓ Body as Temple – An overview of my diet and training regimen that keeps me productive against all odds

✓ Politics & Principles – Why I published controversial writings on fitness, politics, and Covid

      More than a memoir, this is a survival manual proving Paul’s words: “for whenever I am weak, then I am strong” (2Cor 12:10). Whether you’re wrestling with health limitations, vocational calling, or relational loneliness, my story shouts: God’s power thrives in broken vessels.

      I have only accomplished so much in my life despite the struggles because, “the Lord stood by me and gave me strength” (2Tim 4:17a). To Him be all the glory!

Available from Amazon in multiple formats for as little as $3.50.
