From the book:
Do you believe that your own neighborhood is a mission-field assignment by a sovereign God?
Going Around The Corner is a mission strategy for your own backyard. Using a simple format of reading scripture and answering questions, you will begin to see your neighborhood and workplace as your mission field. You will learn to explore your neighborhood and workplace by accepting the mission and praying for believing partners. You will engage your neighbors and co-workers, first by praying, followed by listening to the prompts of the Spirit, then acting by serving them through biblical good works. You will learn to evangelize through conversations and simply sharing your story. As God begins to use you to lead individuals to Christ, you will learn how to establish them in their faith through personal discipleship, and equip them by bringing them into your own church body.
Acts 17:26 tells us that God determines our appointed times and the boundaries of our habitation. God divinely puts us where we live because He has work for us to do as His ambassadors and ministers of reconciliation. Going Around The Corner teaches a simple, practical, biblical strategy of disciple-making. Building on a solid foundation, the goal is to encourage, motivate and equip believers to carry out the Great Commission in their own backyard.
