Bill Hybels: Just a Walk across the room (Simple steps to pointing people to faith)

I will start with an opening statement to this book.
Bill Hybel's books are amazing to comprehend. The one i am reading at the moment is a book that gives insightful and easy tips on how to lead people to christ. What if redirecting a person's forever really is as simple as walking across the room?

When i attend the empowering conference tomorrow the conference is about leadership and tips and stratages on how to come up with fun groups in your own school I want to be the leader of this group that I'm thinking about and I want to see people lead to christ if I step outside my circle of comfort and walk a simple step across the room I could change someones forever.

Please pray that God will guide me into this group I am doing and will give me the strength to do what I need to do.

Commitment to Conquer: Chapter1: Hemet Calls

Chapter 1 was a bit scary I thought at first but when I contiued reading it turned out to be good. Chapter 1 is about a guy Called Bob Beckett he is called to a job at a juvenille dentention in Hemet when he gets there he discovers a mountain called San Jacinto Mountains and in it is the devil they call him Tahquitz they believe and think of him as the evil one.

Bob continues to look further into this mountain and is called to a meeting with Peter Wagner and he shows him a map that he has been keeping track of and thinks where all these things that are bad having being happening one by one he marks a red dot where he wants to find out more and wants to change. Peter the proffessor says that this is great and believes that Bob will do amazing things in this city with God's help.

Bob grabbed a few men that were christians and they went on a journey up to the mountain in san Jancinto to pray and fast, when it was late at night they all woke from a deep sleep of quacking through their cabins, they believed it what the evil spirit trying to stop them from overcoming him and seeing good things happen for the glory of God, so they got up immediately and began to pray and praised God they got louder and louder and the shaking became more intense but they continued to pray and it eventually settled down and they felt the presense of God.

When they returned they wondered and they continued to pray, eventually Bob opened up a church in San Jacinto Mountains. they continued praying and they opened up a prayer group in the church where everyone could attend, about 100 people attended. They continued for 5 years they saw changes and miracles in the church but the community remained as it was. They still don't know why this is but they will continue praying and seeking God no what the circumstance. Yes it will be challenging but God will be with us all, all the way through.

We will see what God is going to do  in that community in chapter 2 and how we can gain the power to do the same in our community as well.

Commitment to Conquer: Redeeming Your City By Strategic Intercession

A Young Woman After God's Own Heart: Review

This book is about being and becoming the young woman God created us girls to be. Elizabeth Gorge gives some examples of how we can search for God in order to find out what we were created to be. Elizabeth is a great author she is very insightful. I believe that as I read this book God is going to talk to me and show me what my destiny and future yet to be is and show what I am going to for and to him.
