Book/Study: Joining Jesus on His mission

Joining Jesus on His Mission - being an everyday missionary will alter the way you see your life as a follower of Jesus and take you beyond living your life for Jesus to living life with Jesus. 
Simple, powerful and applicable insights show you how to be on mission and recognize where Jesus is already at work in your neighborhoods, workplaces and schools. You will feel both relief and hope. You may even hear yourself say, “I can do this!” as you start responding to the everyday opportunities Jesus is placing in your path.
