Wondering about Brian’s books

Before Brian’s next books comes out, would love to hear if you have read any of Brian’s previous books, and if so, which ones, and which has been your favorite, and why?

Global crises

In Brian’s new book, Everything Must Change, he talks about global crises and what Jesus’ response would be to them today. If you were to list the top five global crises – as you see them – what would they be?

Everything Changes From This Point Forward

Steve Knight — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 17:07:19 +0000

Rick Stilwell from Columbia, SC, has been reading Brian’s new book Everything Must Change, and he’s written some great reflections on it today over on his blog. Rick writes, “I can’t escape the reality that my spirituality has needed for some time to grow into something more than my own personal fire insurance. Making a difference in the world, in the real lives of real people around me—that’s something different. And if the claims of Christ are to be taken seriously, minus all the stuff we’ve added onto them over the course of human history, then everything changes from this point forward.”

He concludes, “Instead of being paralyzed with fear and worry over where I might be losing faith, I’m feeling energized this morning to hold onto the faithfulness of God to keep me in Him.”

Wow. Brian’s book is having that kind of impact on people around the Southeast and beyond, and the “Everything Must Change” tour will have a similar impact on many more lives. Don’t miss it! Be a part of it here in Charlotte at Area 15, February 1-2, 2008. Register online now, and remember: you can get a $20 off discount code just by joining the Charlotte Emergent Village cohort group.
