Think Outside the Boat

This book and the stories are there to lead and to guide us into a better more long-lasting relationship with God. Not the back-and-forth we have experienced so often in our lives. But rather one of faith every single day of our lives so that we can be of use to God when He needs us. These stories are there to help us all look at the lives of others so we will let our lives become what God is asking of You and Me as He is asking it. In other words these stories are being presented so your life and your faith will grow as you read each story. Grow so that your faith will be ready when the stories are presented to you that will test your faith. Stories that will help get you ready so that when we get to the stories of the men in the boat you will be ready to listen and learn what God has for you. You will be ready to put your faith on the line with God. You will be ready to step out of the boat (the things that you are holding onto in your life) and step into a whole new life of faith. This is a reminder that a life in Christ can be evaluated by no greater barometer than ... Faith!The book takes the reader into the very heart of everyday life of the modern American Christian to a place where faith is the benchmark of their relationship with God/Christ/Holy Spirit. Some aspects of the book will rattle you to your very spiritual core! While others share the intimate personal relationship of a lifetime "In Christ." In addition, the book explores the relatively new phenomenon of Pastor Worship-the real and explosive reason many are attending church and why fewer are understanding God and Christ.
