straight foward and in your face

this is very blunt and in your face type of book. It was a excellant book, and they authors do not leave out their own struggles and sin. They will let you know how it is. This book will help you realize the need to share your faith with out being preachy. I would recommend Share jesus without fear also. It is by William Fay.

life changing

This book changed my life!!! It forced me to look at the fact that I am a lazy Christian and its not okay. It is written in a really exciting way and it keeps you interested throughout the whole book. I noticed someone complained about how the authors didn't seem very loving towards lazy Christians, but the authors were honest about that. And, just because they didn't like their lifestyle doesn't mean they didn't love them! Loving someone means wanting the most Holy thing for them, and being a lazy Christian isn't Holy! And about the fasting, yeah they did not give very good advice on that. A 40 day fast is the longest fast in the Bible, and its probably a very bad idea to do one for your first fast. So, if you were inspired to fast by this book (which I was) do some more research. I recommend this book to absolutely EVERYONE, because it is truly, truly life changing.

Fact........

This is a wake-up call to the church in America? So are we gonna ignore this and just keep on doing the same old same old; or are we finally gonna wake up and DO SOMETHING????? This man is taking action. Thanks Craig and JR-thanks for waking me up!!!!!

CONVICTING

This is a heart-tugging book - it really is. It will make you rethink your role in the Church. It will make you think what you are doing to misrepresent Jesus. It will upset and concern you. But it is all good. Thanks Craig & JR for this!
