Terry Meeuwsen, cohost of The 700 Club and Living the Life, issues a challenge to believers everywhere to exchange their safe, status quo existence for the eternal impact of a lifelong "God adventure." This book was born out of an unexpected detour late in Meeuwsen's life that led her and her husband to adopt three sisters from the Ukraine. A testimony to God's provision and faithfulness, hers is an adoption story reminiscent of God's choosing us to be a part of His family and extending the invitation to join Him in unexpected, uncertain, unpredictable God adventures. But this is much more than one family's story. It is the call of God to His people--to set aside our plans, sacrifice our comforts, share our blessings, and walk where the path is not always clear. God Wants You Out of Control When God says, "Follow Me," He doesn't usually provide a road map. And that's the beauty of The God Adventure. It's an open invitation to a lifetime off the beaten path. Terry Meeuwsen, cohost of The 700 Club, beckons the tentative to experience the thrill of saying yes to God and "So long!" to their comfort zones. For Terry and her husband, in their fifties, living the God adventure would mean adopting three Ukrainian sisters--in addition to the four children they already had! But the Meeuwsens have never regretted telling the Lord they would be risk-takers for Him. And you won't, either. So say goodbye to the familiar rut. Set aside your plans. Beautiful surprises abound when you embark on the God adventure! Inspiration/Motivation/General ISBN 1-59052-250-8 Story Behind the Book Terry Meeuwsen is one of America's most successful Christian broadcasters--known and loved by many who watch her every day on CBN's The 700 Club. With her husband, Andy Friedrich, she was already a busy 50-something mother of four when she sensed the Lord calling her--quietly but insistently--into a stunning God adventure: to open her heart and her home to three orphaned Ukrainian sisters she had never met. Through daily steps of faith and surrender, what seemed impossible became a reality. Now the Friedrich children number seven. And at every turn, Terry sees more evidence that the extraordinary life God wants for each of us is always only one step away.

For many people, Christianity has become an institution of rules, duty, and potlucks. But for filmmaker Darren Wilson, his life of cultural Christianity changed radically when a powerful encounter with God led him to begin making films that attempted to display the God of the Bible in living color. What happened over the next ten years has affected millions around the world, and has set fires ablaze in hearts that have long sat dormant. God Adventures is an honest and compelling book about the events surrounding the making of these powerful films (Finger of God, Furious Love, Father of Lights, Holy Ghost, and Holy Ghost Reborn), and is designed to take you into a deeper, more fulfilling and, yes, riskier relationship with God. Like Darren’s films, this book focuses on:God’s miraculous power and overpowering love.A Father desperately pursuing His children.The often misunderstood third Person of the Trinity and His relationship to the modern believer.God’s dominance over other gods and supernatural powers.How the Holy Spirit wants to use everyone to bring change and healing to the world, not just professional ministers.Christianity was never meant to be a social club—it was meant to change the world. God Adventures provides biblical insight for the supernatural occurrences documented in Darren’s films, along with behind-the-scenes stories that will inspire, engage, and challenge you to not settle for less than experiencing all of God.
