Publisher's summary

Following Jesus is a journey none of the people in this book ever expected to take. Why did they? What difference did it make? This book is dangerous. If you listen to it, you’ll see that God is still active in saving even the most unexpected people: An atheist woman who viewed Christians as “idiots.” A married couple high in the leadership ranks of the Mormon church. An African-American man who became a Black Muslim out of hatred for white Christians. You’ll be amazed, moved, and encouraged as you read their compelling stories and the stories of nine others who made The Unexpected Journey from non-Christian beliefs to faith in Jesus Christ. You’ll rediscover the power of the gospel. You might even be emboldened to tell others about Christ yourself. Unexpected journeys beyond:

  • Mormonism
  • Judaism
  • Hinduism
  • Atheism
  • Jehovah’s Witness
  • Agnosticism
  • Wiccan Paganism
  • Buddhism
  • Unitarianism
  • Astrology

  • Satanism

Capture the Heart of Christianity

I was moved to tears hearing the first chapter. The love of God is real — an encounter we can't live without — and certainly will want to share after hearing these stories.

First seek to understand

Differences in Religion often separates people who are afraid of what they don’t understand. This book provides understanding and has the potential to bring people together across religions.
I first purchased this as an audio book. Now that I have listened I purchase it to add to my personal library to continue to read and understand. My thanks to the authors who took the time to seek, listen and understand.

Insightful

I wasn’t sure what to expect but was not disappointed. As Christians so many lack real knowledge of what the Bible actually teaches. True Christians need to do better at knowing what they believe and sharing that with a lost world with unconditional love.
There are so many hurting people that are looking for Jesus. We need to be able to share Him.
