He drove a Ford Falcon with a Kenwood stereo and lived in the kind of leafy suburb where the biggest neighbourhood drama was someone parking a trailer on the verge.Then a letter arrived from Nigeria.What followed was a three-country adventure spanning leaky caravans, burning cars, gang members, midnight knocks, a Mongrel Mob neighbour fresh from prison, a six-foot-four man in a white robe, a woman who arrived at his door at midnight bleeding and desperate, and a man named Brian who was one Sunday night away from giving up on life entirely.Don't Open the Door is the true story of what happens when ordinary, comfort-loving people say yes to God before they feel ready.In these pages you will find: - A church planted from twelve hundred dollars, a leaking caravan, and a restaurant phone number- What to do when your neighbours include a Mongrel Mob member and a Black Power sergeant-at-arms- The midnight knock that changed everything-and why Kathi said "Don't open it"- The man sitting on an abandoned car who was one conversation away from a new beginning- Why the house wouldn't sell-and what God was waiting for- A letter to yourself for when life gets too comfortable- Ten lessons from the adventure that anyone willing to step out in faith needs to hearThis is not a book about spiritual superstars.

Jonathan Oastler was twenty-six years old, single, employed as a management consultant in Sydney, and living in the same house he’d grown up in. He drove a Ford Falcon with a Kenwood stereo and lived in the kind of leafy suburb where the biggest neighbourhood drama was someone parking a trailer on the verge.
Then a letter arrived from Nigeria.
What followed was a three-country adventure spanning leaky caravans, burning cars, gang members, midnight knocks, a Mongrel Mob neighbour fresh from prison, a six-foot-four man in a white robe, a woman who arrived at his door at midnight bleeding and desperate, and a man named Brian who was one Sunday night away from giving up on life entirely.
Don’t Open the Door is the true story of what happens when ordinary, comfort-loving people say yes to God before they feel ready.
In these pages you will find:
• A church planted from twelve hundred dollars, a leaking caravan, and a restaurant phone number
• What to do when your neighbours include a Mongrel Mob member and a Black Power sergeant-at-arms
• The midnight knock that changed everything—and why Kathi said “Don’t open it”
• The man sitting on an abandoned car who was one conversation away from a new beginning
• Why the house wouldn’t sell—and what God was waiting for
• A letter to yourself for when life gets too comfortable
• Ten lessons from the adventure that anyone willing to step out in faith needs to hear
This is not a book about spiritual superstars. It is a book about a hobbit from the Shire who stepped out the door and discovered that God was already there—in the caravan park, on the midnight doorstep, in the neighbourhood that wouldn’t let them go.
The adventure doesn’t require you to be ready. It requires you to be willing.
If this book starts something in you, that’s the whole point.
