Jesus Manifesto-- I Signed Up Today

The JESUS MANIFESTO book came highly recommended by my friend Chuck Harris and my friend John Voelz wrote a song inspired and commissioned for the book.

I can't tell you what an impact that this book has had on me.  I'm a little over half way through it and it is as if I've put on a new pair of glasses and I see things in such a different way.

It's coming out in my thoughts and in my speaking (message preparation and worship leadership).  It's even coming out in my counseling (as I tell people to live with the knowledge that this mystery is "Christ in you the hope of glory".

To live with the knowledge of the "presence" of Christ living in you makes you very conscious of what you do, think and go.  It's for me like the Father Lawrence phrase of "practicing the presence of God"

Have you every read a book that has had this impact on you?
