Rumors of God: Experience the Kind of Faith You've Only Heard About by Darren Whitehead and Jon Tyson



Rumors of God is reaching out to Christians and challenging them to let go of the ungodly world we live in and walk in blind faith with Christ. They echo the prayer of Habakkuk throughout the book, “LORD, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, LORD. Renew them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy.” They use this prayer to challenge us. They challenge that even though we may know of God, that doesn’t mean we know God, and they call us to a radical faith.
         
   This book was so good on so many levels. I was skeptical at first, realizing that both of these pastors worked in “mega-churches”, which reminded me of televangelism and then made me think, are they just writing this book for the money. That was before I read the first page, but once I opened it I couldn’t put it down. These men have an amazing insight, and though they poke and prod and ask us to give up our comfort to live radically for Christ, you never feel too uncomfortable. As I read I could feel God challenging the way I live my life. I knew that what these men spoke of was truth. I hope that all who read this feel the same call to action that I felt, and that they didn’t just make a temporary change, but a permanent one.
