Insight From a Book

For the one person who reads this, I just finished the book Communicating For a Change by Andy Stanley and Lane Jones. I must admit, I got more than I expected from it. Not only did it address areas where I fail, or, at least do poorly, but it also gave me a glimpse of what the goal of a good communicator should look like.

Surprisingly, Stanley began by saying that he never felt called to preach, he just volunteered. Wow! I'm not dissing the call, I believe it is important. However, I wonder how many people sit in the pews or chairs every Sunday wanting to do something but they are waiting for "the call". I'll be thinking on this for quite some time.
