Do you lament the fact that the body of Christ seems to spend more time fighting about its differences than it does in ministering to the poor and needy? Do you dream about a day when Christians from all denominations work together to reach the lost? Do you wonder how you personally might be able to make a difference? If you answered affirmatively to these questions, and if you are looking for a little inspiration to get involved yourself, then look no further. Doers of the Word gives you a small glimpse behind the scenes at twelve ministries in the Long Island, New York, area that started with limited resources and a big vision to serve Christ by helping those in need. In a sense, this book is about modern day Noahs-people who heard from God and then dared to listen to him, in spite of what the world might think. As they acted in faith by opening food pantries, clothing distribution centers, and other types of outreaches, people heard the gospel for the first time and they responded. "The people you will meet in this book understand that a selfless lifestyle far outweighs financial wealth and fame. By reading their stories, you too will be inspired to serve Jesus " -Lynne F. Albers, "Jesus Alive" Executive Board "The Long Island Story will give you confidence to step out in faith as the Lord drops dreams and what ifs into your spirit. It will stir up your confidence and reliance on the faithfulness of God." -John and Barbara Curcio "The people in this book are wonderful examples of walking saints " -Frank Rendo
