CCN Kicks Off "Just Walk Across the Room" Campaign Building on the foundation laid by the award-winning and best-selling training series, Becoming A Contagious Christian, Christian Communication Network (CCN) is offering a new 90-minute broadcast with fresh perspectives from Willow Creek's Bill Hybels on "the next era of personal evangelism."

Based on his own reflections and experiences collected during his most recent decade of ministry, Hybels has discovered that, rather than fancy formulas or memorized scripts, the absolute highest value in personal evangelism is staying attuned to and cooperative with the movement of the Holy Spirit--and proving to every Christ follower that they can do it.

Be part of the nationwide satellite kick-off of "Just Walk Across the Room" on either Sunday, October 15 or Tuesday, October 17 via satellite and only on CCN.

Developing the Attitude Behind an Externally Focused Church Pastor Rick Rusaw, an active client in Leadership Network events, and Eric Swanson, Director of Externally Focused Churches Leadership Communities, have co-authored their second book, Living a Life on Loan: Finding Grace at the Intersections. "When we come to the realization that our life is on loan from God and that what we do with it matters a great deal to Him, we begin a journey that transforms the church from internally driven to externally focused," the authors say. Their first book, The Externally Focused Church, provides a call to action for church leadership. This second book helps individuals explore a life where serving others provides an opportunity for their story to intersect others--and for lives to be forever changed.
