Beggars Can Be Chosen probes the encounters of Christ and those He
invited to follow Him. The book, while providing expository
comment, is fundamentally designed as a source of practical
application for our daily Christian walk. There is a dual objective
in Beggars Can Be Chosen: How is Jesus inviting us to follow Him?
How does Jesus invite others to Himself through us? Traveling
chronologically through the life of Christ, the text takes the
reader on a stirring journey. The stories vary in pace and
emphasis, but the focus stays true to the objective. Beggars Can Be
Chosen draws from a wealth of classic and contemporary sources of
insight and information. Anecdotes, textual explanations, and
stinging discourse provide moving meditations. Examples of
ministries following Christ's example are displayed. Readers will
know they have turned their attention to the Master Inviter.Chris
