We are not meant to live safe, happy, successful Christian lives.
Jesus calls us to something more. Don't settle for a life that will
soon be forgotten. Mission is not just something for "them,"
somewhere over "there." Mission is for us, here and now. Don Everts
invites you to get caught up in God's mission in this world. He
shows what it means to be a missional Christian, to have eyes that
see, hands that serve and feet that go. Bringing together personal
evangelism, urban witness and global crosscultural mission, Everts
shows how you can live your life on mission--whoever you are,
whatever you do, wherever you go. Get a glimpse of the vision. See
what Jesus is doing. And go and do likewise.
Everyday Practices for a World Gone Mad
We live in soul-scorching times. The 24-7 onslaught of contemporary
life--with its never-ending feed of global tragedies and shrieking
demands for our attention, to say nothing of the ordinary pressures of
work, family, friends, and community--has left us ragged, wrung-out,
and emptied.
In his life-changing new book, John Eldredge distills a lifetime's
wisdom about healing into a series of practical, ready-to-implement
practices for putting yourself back together. These simple steps will
enable you to begin recovery, help you focus on what matters most,
disengage from the tragedies of this broken world, and discover the
restorative power of beauty. The practices include:
- the one-minute pause
- benevolent detachment
- practicing kindness,
- getting outside, and
- stepping back from technology
The practices explained here are ready for the taking. You don't need
abandon your life to get it back. You can restore it here and now. And
you will never be the same.
John Eldredge is a bestselling author, a counselor, and a teacher. He
is also president of Ransomed Heart, a ministry devoted to helping
people discover the heart of God, recover their own hearts in God's
love, and learn to live in God's kingdom. John and his wife, Stasi,
live near Colorado Springs, Colorado.

We are living in the Business Age. The historic role of nation states is rapidly being replaced by the corporation. Like never before, Christian business leaders have the chance to play a pivotal role in transforming society and spreading the gospel. But seizing this opportunity requires thinking differently about God, about his kingdom, about his purposes in the world, and about business.
While some Christian professionals dream of being “freed from business” to go into the ministry or see business as enemy territory to be invaded for Christ, others are convinced that Christian principles simply don’t work in the “real world.” In Business as Mission, Michael Baer challenges each of these positions.
He rejects the unbiblical thinking that ministry and business are by definition separate activities — that our lives can be compartmentalized into the sacred and secular. Instead he guides business leaders in developing the vital characteristics of a kingdom business — the kind of business that will free them to live fully integrated lives and lead organizations that significantly impact the world.
In the 1970s Hennie Keyter was an angry young man, fresh out of
military service for the apartheid government of South Africa,
unsure of his path in life and deeply uneasy about his faith. When
God revealed to him that He had a purpose for him and a calling on
his life, at first Hennie was not ready to hear it. When he finally
accepted and understood his mission, a flame was lit in his heart
that nothing could have extinguished. But nothing could have
prepared him either for the extraordinary spiritual journey he was
about to embark on which would take him wherever God wanted him to
go: from Malawi, ‘the warm heart of Africa’, to Mozambique at the
height of its civil war, where he was sentenced to death and faced
a firing squad, from a less than welcoming beginning in Zanzibar,
to the United Nations base at Lokichokio on the border between
Kenya and Sudan (where on one trip he discovered that he had a
price of US 10 000 on his head). Desiring only to do the will of
God and to spread the Gospel, Hennie took up the challenge of
taking the Gospel to many of the countries on the African continent
and in the Middle East, building up leaders and planting churches
in poverty stricken areas, lands devastated by years of conflict
and deprivation, and war zones where soldiers seemed to have lost
everything, even hope. Through the bushfire of mass evangelism and
his dedicated teams of volunteers, supported by the love and faith
of his wife Rita and his children Anton and Mari, in His Call, My
All: An African Drumbeat – A Missionary’s Heartbeat Hennie Keyter
looks back at his life in the service of the Lord and forward to
continuing His work for as long as God requires it of him.
