A Hopeful Direction

Foster said what being said with increasing frequency throughout Christendom... change in our approach to evangelism is vital. I sensed some residual “Church-inanity” in his writing but I am confident that I still have some as well. This book challenges a seemingly granite paradigm but gives hope to those who want to see Jesus reign in the lives of both the hopeless and the hopeful.

[Gary Desrosiers]

I actually did not finish this book. It is too close to main stream modern Christianity for me. Foster's use of "R4G" to represent renegade for God was just too much.
