“THE RIVER FLOWS DOWN” A Call to Missions for Ordinary Christians  

IF YOU HAVE A HEART FOR MISSIONS BUT FEEL TOTALLY UNQUALIFIED AND UNEQUIPPED, JUST FOLLOW MY FRIENDS AND I TO AFRICA AS WE LEARN THAT GOD CAN USE WEAK AND BROKEN VESSELS FOR HIS GLORY.

    I’m just a regular guy with a wife and two kids. I work a regular job and attend a local church, but when I made Friends with Kato, from Entebbe, Uganda, my ordinary life went off in a different direction. Soon my home group and I were making plans to send Kato back home to visit his family. Before long, the entire group was packing to accompany Kato on this mission trip. Could God really use a group of ordinary, non-pastor-type people to bring hope to Uganda?
     Jesus said rivers of living water would flow from the bellies of those who follow Him. If it seems that your river is more of a trickle, then be encouraged by my story of what happens when ordinary Christians take a plunge into God’s mighty river. You can tap into the River of God and it will flow down from Heaven through you to earth, just as it did through me.
    The Theme of this book is “If I can, anyone can.” WHAT HE DID THROUGH ME, HE IS WILLING TO DO THROUGH YOU.

    John Gross is a man of prayer and simplicity. I love his heart for the poor of the earth. This book is a must read for those who want to be touched by God’s heart for the nations. Come breakout of the mundane as ordinary Christians, say yes to the call of Jesus and experience the rivers of living water as they find thirsty ground.
Mike Bickle, Director, International House of Prayer of Kansas City, MO

    John is a man exemplary in godly character, who passionately loves Jesus and missions. His book is brilliantly simple and profoundly real while providing a healthy kingdom perspective of short-term missions and what it means to go as a disciple of Jesus to another nation.
Dr. Wes Adams, Associate Director, Fusion Ministries, Kansas City, MO

    Where would God call you to let the river flow? If you are a seriously mission-minded believer, read this book with an open heart and be challenged to be an agent of change by letting “The River Flow Down” through you.
Don Richter, Director, Harvest Preparation International Ministries, Sarasota , Fl.

    I highly recommend this book. It’s filled with testimony to the supernatural power of God manifested through ordinary men and women and will pull at your heart to take the gospel to the poor, broken, the lame, the orphan, the window and the ones bound by satan throughout the world.
Regina Shank, Apostolic Leader, Missouri Prayer Global Mission, Carthage, MO.
