This is our Mandate!

A very select number of books in my library are categorised as "Life-changing" and this book is up there with the few of them. This is every Christian believer's mandate. Nothing more, nothing less. We've discussed this extensively with my discipleship group and it has given us a clear vision on how to build and lay solid foundations in disciple making. In Matthew 28:18-20, Jesus' command to "Go and make disciples" was never optional nor reserved to an elite few. It is imperative that all of us obey. Rather than getting worried on being "Left Behind", let's go out there and don't be "Left out".

Oh For Fire To Burn in the Church Again!

Remember the words of William Booth, John Wesley, George Whitfield, Jonathan Edwards, or Hudson Taylor? Probably not. That is because most "modern" Christians are caught up in the "How To's" of Church Growth professors and not truly seeking the presence of a holy and awesome God. Thankfully God has raised up Rice Broocks. Rice leads Morningstar International Ministries out of Nashville, TN and his heart burns for God to be exalted among the nations in the spirit of Booth, Wesley, and Taylor. With this book he gives the Church a blueprint for radical evangelism of the nations. We must not lose the dream of seeing the nations won to Christ. We must not grow cold in our walks with God. We must love Jesus, burn with a fire for Him, and we must long for all nations to hear the gospel of our Lord.This book will challange your prayer life, your walk with God, your hunger for revival, your love for the Word, and most of all it will challange you to make an impact in this generation for Jesus Christ. The world has yet to see what God can do with one man who is completely yielded unto Him.

A Blueprint For Discipling the Nations

Read this book and then read Douglas Layton's My Father's Kingdom. These two books go hand in hand with one another.Rice Broocks presents a compelling argument on why and howthe saints should go into places that no one has ever gonebefore. Rice presents a modern *Acts* story of how nationsare being changed today and thus provides a sort of a telescopic view of what has happened where Acts closes andwhat has been continuing to happen NOW. Although this is bookconcentrates on the movement that Rice is involved in, it stillpresents a great challenge to those would like to follow inthe footsteps of the Apostle Paul. Considering what ApostlePaul accomplished in an era without satellites, email or jettravel, Rice provides an answer (and also possibilities) to the questionat the back of peoples' minds : "What would the Apostle Paul accomplishif he was living today". The last paragraph sums it all up for the would-be reader - the end-time army is not going to be composed of wannabe spiritual superstars but a multitude of facelessunknowns who are anointed and apointed. Read this at your own risk. This could ruin your life for the better.Readers of Rice first book "Change the Campus, Change the World"will be familiar with his thesis : the campus is where it's at!This books is a good summary of what has happened since he wrotethe first book and how valid his original thesis was.Every CP should have this as a handy reference of what can bepossible.

Exactly what we should be doing!

Rice Brooks lays out what all generations of Christians have been mandated to do. His challenge will we do in this generation, what past generations have not? It is my prayer that if you read this entry you would catch the vision of what has been wrote in this book.
