Robert Lewis wrote a book recently, entitled: The Church of Irresistible Influence. It's a great book because it talks about how churches can make a difference in their communities and around the world.

The church, first of all, is you, me and all other believers who call themselves followers of Christ. We are the church. So how can we - you and me - be an irresistible influence in the world we live in?
Here's some thoughts on how we can be an INFLUENCE:
Implement an innovative strategy to meet needs in your community
Never say "I can't do that" or "that won't work."
Freshen your faith and get serious about your purpose
Love and accept all people as God loves and accepts them
Understand that your responsibility includes those whom God places in your path
Elevate your passion for Christ and His work
Now is the time - don't wait!
Challenge those around you to get involved with you
Evangelize wherever you go
