Surprise the World: The Five Habits of Highly Missional People Paperback - 2015

by Michael Frost


From the publisher

Sharing your faith doesn't have to be complicated.
Christians are called to be a witness for Christ in daily life, to surprise people around us with the good news of the gospel. Yet putting that mission into regular practice can seem overwhelming. Author Michael Frost, a renowned expert on evangelism, offers refreshingly simple tactics to make evangelism fulfilling, exciting, and effective.

Surprise the World teaches clear and practical tools for making evangelism part of your daily life. This short and easy read covers the BELLS method, along with thought-provoking questions and prompts for applying each habit. You'll learn about each of the five habits:

  • Bless others
  • Eat together
  • Listen to the Spirit
  • Learn Christ
  • Understand yourself as Sent by God into others' lives
Ideal for personal use or training groups on evangelism, the inspiring lessons in this book will transform your view of evangelism in daily life.

"A timely wake-up call for believers. A concise and helpful encouragement to those seeking to live on-mission in their communities." --Ed Stetzer, author and pastor

"Eminently doable, entirely practical, and exceptionally effective!" --Felicity Dale, author of An Army of Ordinary People

"If every believer developed a lifestyle that included these 5 habits, I'm convinced a great spiritual awakening would take place." --Al Engler, mission director of Nav Neighbor
