We had a great time in England (London & Preston), Wales, and Northern Ireland! I will have more stories and pictures to share soon. For those of you I met over there, so sorry we sold out of copies of Not Like Me. Below are the chapters and resources I promised:
Not Like Me: A Field Guide for Influencing a Diverse World helps people of faith effectively love, serve, and reach people overlooked by the church. We are called to move past the barriers that stand between us and those who may be different from us morally, spiritually, ethnically, or socio-economically. Published by Zondervan, Not Like Me is a revised, re-titled, and updated version of Peppermint-Filled Pinatas.
Not Like Me includes a brief article after each chapter with practical ways to apply the principles presented in that chapter. The contributors include: Ed Stetzer, Amena Brown, Margaret Feinberg, Kevin Harney, Dr. Gerardo Marti, Kim Martinez, Lon Wong, Mark DeYmaz, Princess Zulu, Dan Kimball, and Erwin McManus (Foreword).
