Synopsis

How is your church fulfilling the two great commandments of loving God and loving your neighbors?

"Laura's love and passion for Jesus and for people shines through in the pages of this Isaiah 58 Community Outreach Training Manual. Her desire to impact this world through the good news of Jesus inspires me to do the same, and I believe anyone who invests themselves in this curriculum will be blessed by her efforts. The guidance and instruction that she provides is not only thorough and well-researched, but it is rooted deeply in Scripture

providing a wide-ranging look at the full and complete life that Jesus has called each of us to experience in Him."

-Brian Nelsen, youth pastor at Anacortes Community Church

"If you are only interested in learning how to use a 'Four Spiritual Laws' pamphlet, this book may be a bit overwhelming. However, if you're wanting to respond to God's call to impact your community for Jesus Christ with a broader perspective, this can be a valuable resource. I appreciate the statement Laura makes, i.e., 'One must recognize who God is in order to consciously serve Him.' I felt that principle emerging throughout as she offers insight to various theological topics and assurances of relationship, with God and with others. This can be a good addition to your library."

-Dave Love, retired Foursquare Church pastor and community prayer leader

This manual prepares adults and youth group leaders (including lessons for youth) to engage others in a caring way, connect with the other's stories, and share their testimonies. Isaiah 58 is a God-inspired outreach facilitated by fasting and prayer. The manual has organized lessons for four weeks of training or a one-week intensive, including a schedule with flexible ways and ideas for outreach:

• Holy Spirit-led and biblically guided
• Following the example of Jesus
• Learning to be genuine in your care
• Winning those that may have a negative response
• Seeing your neighbors through God's eyes
• Listening to the other.
