Q. What is "Night Shift" about?

A. Night Shift is about the Christian mandate and how we live it out, especially when the world we live in appears indifferent or even hostile to our message.  We do so, the book says, by embracing biblical cross-cultural models, being shrewd as snakes and innocent as doves in tough times and hard places, becoming agents of blessing in a world desperately in need of good news.  

In this book, I share how we as believers are all on a mission to cross cultural lines or borders for the kingdom, even in the darkest night.  In its three parts, I talk about 1) what our mission is all about; 2) how we do that mission cross-culturally; and 3) how we do all that on what I call the "night shift." 

This book is not just for people doing ministry in obvious cross-cultural ways, like in a foreign country.  It is for every believer, because as I explain in the book, the ministry of communicating the gospel is essentially cross-cultural no matter where we are.
