Just reviewed “Off-Road Disciplines of Missional Leaders” in Amazon as part of the deal that I had with the publishers. I got the book for free if only I wrote a review at amazon. The folowing were my thoughts on the book:
The cure for the irrelevance of the gospel to today’s culture requires a little more than making us look cooler. It requires more than spiky hair tattoos and piercing.
In Off-road disciplines, there is a breaking down of the walls of distinction between sacred and secular settings for the gospel and provides a framework for the secular to be come sacred in all walks of life. There is a genuineness in being sensitive to God changing US in order for us to be missional.
The outward mission is preceded by an inward mission; from a journey in the world to a journey within your own heart.
Do not read this book if you are happy with your “me” focused Christianity within the four walls of your church.
The supernatural did not figure in this book as much as I would have liked it to, but the book does form a framework and a context for the work of the supernatural in society.
