Getting “It”

Craig’s latest book, It, is already in its second printing—only two weeks after the initial release! I’m so excited that so many leaders are being challenged by “It“. Thanks to those of you who have been spreading the word and sharing your feedback like here and here and here and here and through Amazon reviews.

Out of the four books Craig has written, I think that It best captures many of the leadership learnings we’ve had so far at LifeChurch.tv.

If you missed the Willow Summit last week, here’s a quick video of Craig answering some questions about It.

Also, many of you have asked about the prayer Craig mentioned in his talk at Willow. It’s adapted from a Franciscan Blessing, it’s the closing prayer at the end of the book…Craig talked about it in this post.

It is currently out of stock again on Amazon, but you can order it now and it should be available on August 28th. If you’d like to work through this book with your team, we can save you some money! For orders of 12 or more, Sarah can get them to you for 50% off the cover price.

Thanks again for helping spread the word about It.

“IT” - Now Available on Amazon… Sort Of

My new book, It, is now available on Amazon today. Unfortunately, they sold out of their stock.

My publishers said it is available today here and on Amazon next week some time.

If you’d like to order twelve or more copies at half price, you can contact Sarah.

Here is the first chapter of It.

Chazown has been translated into French, Spanish, Korean, and recently Portuguese. You can order Chazown (or Confessions of a Pastor) in other languages here.

I have three copies in French and three copies in Portuguese I’d love to give away for free. Please email Sarah if you’d like one of those.

Books, Books, Books!

I just received about 4000 pounds of books. If you are interested in bulk orders at big discounts for your church or staff, please email my assistant, Sarah.

I am excited that many churches have used Confessions of a Pastor and Chazown for sermon series.  Several churches are using Going All the Way for premarital counseling.

At the end of July or beginning of August, I’ll have a new book coming out called It. We will officially release the book at the Willow Creek Leadership Summit this year when I speak on “It.”

Here is a link so you can download the first chapter.

I hope you enjoy It!
