Soul Winning and Visitation: The Believerâs Mission!
Churches look for all kinds of plans to increase attendance and grow. Most ignore the one that God gave to the Church: Soul Winning and Visitation. Jesus didn't just go about preaching, he preached the Gospel and personally invited people to join him. He told the fisherman to follow him and he would make them fishers of men. The result of giving out the Gospel and inviting people to follow him was that 'great multitudes of people' followed him. Wouldn't you like to see great multitudes of people get saved and join your church? There is no substitute for personally meeting with people, sharing the Gospel with them and inviting them to church.
The Last Days of Shea
Written in a personal, moving, and humorous style, The Last Days of Shea chronicles the New York Mets from October 2006, when the team lost the National League Championship Series, to October 2008, when the team began to dismantle its antiquated, inadequate, and dearly loved Shea Stadium. The book is about following a baseball team with one's heart, mind, and soul. It represents the experience of being in a crowd at a ballpark, following a pennant race, enduring an off season, experiencing streaks, slumps, triumph and heartbreak. All of this is represented against the imminent destruction of a stadium "that is not likely to be represented as well in the perfect and profitable little park that will replace it."
