Miraculous Movements: How Hundreds of Thousands of Muslims Are Falling in Love with Jesus by Jerry Trousdale is one of the best books I have ever read on how to reach the lost for Jesus Christ. This book is specifically how to reach out to Muslims, but it can be used as a tool to reach out to any unsaved person. How they reach the Muslims is patterned after how Jesus went after the lost. The emphasis was placed on “Disciple people toward salvation” (p. 33). This concept may sound hard to understand, but once one reads this book in its entirety, one can see that this was and is Jesus’ way of bringing people to the hope of salvation. It was pointed out that, “Jesus chose some ordinary men and had them walk with Him as He revealed truths of God and asked them to live their lives according to those values. Eventually, they began to do what He did, and they also began to experience God’s power and blessings in their own lives” (p. 43). The other emphasis was placed on showing those around you what a life of obedience to Christ looks like, and ultimately the power of intercessory prayer.
I am a power reader, but this book took me several days to read because I had so much to ponder upon. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who wants to bring people to the salvation of Jesus Christ and is looking for how to do it. Please get this book; this book may change your life and those you are trying to bring to Jesus!
