Top Highlights
“It is not easy to be a Muslim today. If Christians can begin to engage Muslims beyond the headlines of burkas and bombs, we will discover hundreds of millions of disheartened and discouraged people. Muslims’ lives are too often bounded by desolation and broken walls, but today many of them are desperate to discover people who love them, a God who loves them, and hope for the future.” (Page 13)
“Do not teach or preach; instead, facilitate discovery and obedience.” (Page 106)
“In a nutshell, Disciple Making Movements spread the gospel by making disciples who learn to obey the Word of God and quickly make other disciples, who then repeat the process. This results in many new churches being planted, frequently in regions that were previously very hostile to Christianity.” (Page 16)
“It is important to understand that we train new Christians to pray, we don’t teach them. This process is done, not by seminars and training materials and lectures, but simply by doing it, and, more important, by seeing it done.” (Page 61)
“Don’t do mass evangelism, just focus on one family?’ Thomas asked incredulously, aloud. ‘Disciple people toward salvation? Don’t preach and teach, just help lost people discover God’s Word and obey it? Disciple people toward salvation?’ He had never heard so many backward or strange ideas in his whole life.” (Pages 33–34)

Now this is worthy reading. I listen frequently to TBN. (Trinity Broadcasting Network). These people are investing millions of dollars in Muslim lands. They help build small TV station with satellite technology for reception of the Gospel. According to one the Muslim leaders, there are so many Muslims coming to the faith and this, by direct revelation of Jesus. The Lord Himself, according to their own testimony, has revealed Himself to many of them. It stands to reason, that these people can only come by direct revelation when and after they hear the Gospel. I'm looking forward to reading this book. This is the next spiritual revolution in the Christian faith, when many of the enemy's camp are brought by the loving arms of the Savior! Indeed, Jesus is Coming Soon!
