God spoke the world into existence in only 6 days with a few words. Jesus saved the world uttering only a few things. Can we change the world with six words or less? Dave DeVries gives it a try. Learning to speak in a concise and yet meaningful manner is a developing art form. In the day of twitter and facebook we are all learning how to say something important in 140 characters or less. The wisdom shared in this book took a whole lot longer to learn than it takes to read, so take advantage of this book!
-Neil Cole, author of Organic Church, Organic Leadership, and Church 3.0 as well as Founder and Director of Church Multiplication Associates
Dave’s translation of kingdom principles into missional application is necessary for any disciple or disciplemaker who wants a ministry rooted in theological thinking that matches harvest-oriented practice. In keeping his ideas and format simple, he gives us no excuse but to get to work being “doers of the Word, not merely hearers only.”
-Paul Kaak, Co-founder of The Organic Church Planters’ Greenhouse and Associate Professor of Leadership, Azusa Pacific University (Read his Forward for the Book)
