Louie Giglio is one of America’s best-known pastors, leading the Atlanta, Georgia-based Passion City Church.

Giglio spent years inspiring church communities, families, and the youth to live with courage, joy, and purpose through his work as a speaker and preacher. He has often said that his life is shaped by a desire to help others grow in the faith and his deep love for God.

In his work, Louie Giglio usually speaks with energy and warmth as he connects with listeners using personal reflections, everyday stories, and big ideas about meaning, hope, and life.

Outside of his work as a pastor, he founded the world Christian movement known as the “Passion Movement”, which calls upon college-aged people to live better lives. Since its founding, it has brought together thousands of students to serve, learn, and worship.

“Passion Movement” events are known for their strong community spirit, heartfelt teaching, and lively atmosphere.

With a passion for connecting everyday life to faith, he listens to people’s joys and struggles and asks them to think deeply about their beliefs and choices. In church and online, he often speaks on themes of courage, love, generosity, and the power of community.

In his 2003 published work The Air I Breathe, Louie Giglio shows why worship is at the heart of being human rather than being some singing on Sunday.

From the moment Adam and Eve were created, humans have always had the gift of worship. As such, true worship usually flows naturally, touching every breath, action, and word as it connects humans to God. It helps them appreciate the holiness of God and the deep love he has for us.

Giglio shows how just about anyone can have communion with God through making worship an essential part of their everyday lives.

In 2011, Louie Giglio teamed up with Matt Redman to publish Indescribable, in which they explore the many wonders of the universe and point readers back to God.

The work combines images of nature and space with devotional reflections and scientific ideas to show how planets, galaxies, stars, and even tiny elements of creation point to God's creativity and power.

It encourages worship and awe by tying the beauty of the universe to God's majesty, love, and personal care for humanity. Through scripture and science, the work helps people deeply loved and known by God despite how small they are in the vastness of the world.

In Indescribable: 100 Devotions About God and Science, which he published in 2017, he shows children how the universe and the world point to God's creativity and power.

Coming with 100 devotions, it combines prayers, Bible verses, and science facts to help young readers learn about the human body, stars, weather, planets, animals, and oceans.

Every section includes a prayer to help readers reflect on all creation and the care God has for it, hands-on activities, and cool facts.
