Book Reviews of Starving Jesus: Off the Pew, Into the World
Book Review: This is a must-read!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just got my new copy of Starving Jesus yesterday. Craig Gross & JR Mahon have re-released the book just about one year after the 40 day tour and the release of the book originally. They have added two chapters talking about the tour, the 40 day fast, and all that transpired as they traveled across the country in an RV chained to a pew.
If you have not read the book, you definitely should. It is a great read and while you won't agree with everything they say, if you are like me you will be happy that someone is saying it. If you read the book already, I think the last two chapters are worth the $10 from Amazon.com . In many respects, the book felt incomplete without it.
In the last two chapters, both JR & Craig are very honest and real. In many respects the tour did not turn out the way they hoped. But there is a humbleness--a brokenness--that comes through those last two chapters that, for me, makes the rest of the book more powerful.
I found myself re-energized and excited about giving, fasting, and praying after re-reading the book. It also made me happy that we played a small part as one of the host churches for the tour.
Again, if you haven't read this book... read it.
Summary of Starving Jesus: Off the Pew, Into the World
I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you have me no drink?
It?s time to STOP STARVING JESUS.
In other words?it?s time for Christians to get off their comfortable seats near the back of the sanctuary get out in the world. Authors Craig Gross and JR Mahon challenge fellow Christ-followers to stop talking about being spiritual, and start being spiritual?by rolling up their sleeves and serving a world desperate for the hope Christ offers.
You can make a difference.
