I wish I would have found out about this man about 2 years ago. But, I didn't... so now I am trying to quickly make up for lost time and catch up on what he said that I have missed.

The ideas he presents are dangerous to The Church. I like his style.

From the Back Cover
WARNING: This is not just another book on evangelism. This book contains fresh, encouraging, challenging, groundbreaking, and doable ideas you’ll want to share with your pastor, your small group or class, your board, or your parachurch organization.

OUT: Evangelism as sales pitch, as conquest, as warfare, as ultimatum, as threat, as proof, as argument, as entertainment, as show, as monologue, as something you have to do.

IN: Disciple-making as conversation, as friendship, as influence, as invitation, as companionship, as challenge, as opportunity, as conversation, as dance, as something you get to do.

You’re more ready for this than you realize, and so are your friends!

More Ready Than You Realize

I hope it changes your life. I'm off to bed, its been a great 10 days. Training at International Teams was fun, challenging, and has helped me grow. I met so many cool people who are serving the Lord in dynamic and fresh ways all around the world.

More on that tomorrow...
