"The Unchurched Next Door" by Thom S. Rainer
We all know someone who does not attend church. They may be a family member, a neighbor, or even a coworker. But what keeps them from attending church? Filled with lots of statistics, graphs and data, The Unchurched Next Door takes a hard look at the reasons people give for not attending church. Dr. Rainer compiles data gathered from surveys and categorizes the unchurched into five areas from the totally resistant to the highly receptive. Then he gives suggestions on how to reach those people -- share your faith in Christ.

If you enjoy data, statistics, seeing the lost come to Christ, or are looking for another way to share your faith, I would recommend reading The Unchurched Next Door by Thom S. Rainer (R.Shaver)

"The Listener " by Terri Blaylock (Originally published as The Heart Reader)
A novella about a man who was given the gift of being able to read/hear people's deepest desires. He's able to use that gift to bring many people to the Lord. The impact of this gift expands to his church & his entire community. When the gift is taken away, he finally realizes that everyone's deepest desire is a close relationship with Jesus. This is a great book for witness-motivation! (jyb)
