About this ebook
We are not meant to live safe, happy, successful Christian lives. Jesus calls us to something more. Don't settle for a life that will soon be forgotten. Mission is not just something for "them," somewhere over "there." Mission is for us, here and now. Don Everts invites you to get caught up in God's mission in this world. He shows what it means to be a missional Christian, to have eyes that see, hands that serve and feet that go. Bringing together personal evangelism, urban witness and global crosscultural mission, Everts shows how you can live your life on mission—whoever you are, whatever you do, wherever you go. Get a glimpse of the vision. See what Jesus is doing. And go and do likewise.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Clever and practical, Everts' work offers a simple and clear explanation and introduction to becoming a "missional Christian." This work unpacks both the anatomy of a missional Christian (e.g. sober eyes, rather than the fearful eyes of a safe Christian, or the eager eyes of a successful Christian, or the recreational eyes of a happy Christian) and the geography of mission (e.g. family, relationships, church, the city, and the world). Although at times bordering on cutesy (the anatomy metaphors are somewhat helpful, but get a bit tired and predictable after five chapters), I would not hesitate to put this book in the hands of a high school student interested in living out their faith more fully. B-
