Street Crossers

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Rick Shrout's Street Crossers gets at the heart of what it means to be a missionary in today's postmodern culture. He reminds us that there are mission fields across the street from our homes, in our neighborhoods, just around the corner. We don't need to travel to a third-world country to be a missionary. Rick's passionate call to his readers calls us to realize that streets lead to connections but at the same time also to disconnections. We are challenged to 'cross the street' because that is where we will find Jesus.”
