A Must Read for Preachers!

In many modern day churches, the Gospel has been so diluted that we now ask the congregation to bow our heads and close our eyes so that the new convert can SLIP his hand up to be included in the sinner's prayer for the salvation of his soul, which is totally unbiblical. Angus has brought the Gospel truth back to life by not only asking converts to come forward but to insist that they tell the first three people they meet about their new faith in Jesus Christ. The bible says "whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven' Matthew 10:32. Every preacher should read this book if only just for this revelation, that the Gospel is Good News, not Embarassing News! Much more besides in this book that builds faith. Simple English. Easy read. But faith-building nevertheless.

Inspiring and life changing!

Down-to-earth, honest and real account of how God has changed a man, willing to risk everything to trust God. It will inspire and challenge you to experience God in your every-day life! A great book for people who are seeking God but turned off by hypocritical and religious "Christians" who believe they are better than everyone else.

Incredible and inspirational

This is the incredible story of the goodness and love of God and how by grace the Spirit of God can change us into intruments to do His work and display it in power. The book has a presence of the Spirit that draws you through gentle confiction towards the challenge of surrendering your life completely to God in cheerful obedience. The story will change your life forever. Read it together with a book written by Roland and Heidi Baker, called "Always Enough"

Life changing

The book Faith Like Potatoes was lifechanging to me. I used to do drugs untill when saw a program on grassroots about Angus Buchan. I bought this book and it gave me courage and hope which changed my life within 2 weeks. Today I am full of zeal for the Lord and God is as real as me and you. Either God is who he says He is or He is not. This book just relates how tangeble and real God is. All Glory to God. Martin Vivier
