How far would you go to experience an exceptional spiritual life?
Kevin Springer was only 18 years old, reeling from disappointment and humiliation, when he discovered God was a dream wrecker.
He did everything required for success. That’s when God monkey-wrenched his life. His plans evaporated, leaving him in a vacuum of despair, isolation, and self-pity. Kevin decided to run. He packed his car and headed as far away from God as he could.
Then, when things couldn’t get any worse, God spoke; softly, deeply, gently. “If you enter the freeway, your life will never be the same. You will change the direction of your life, and it will not be for the better.” Kevin listened to the Big Word and discovered God’s plans were far better than anything he could ever imagine.
Kevin took a U-turn back into God’s will and onto A Road of Unimagined Adventure. This is his story.
Big Words are God's voice,
rooted in an intimate relationship with him—the Spirit of Christ speaking to you, guiding and shaping your life. They usually come at life’s crossroads, those moments that define your future.
These words are the roadmap to an adventure that matters for eternity.

Big Words are God’s voice, rooted in an intimate relationship with him—the Spirit of Christ speaking to you, guiding and shaping your life. They usually come at life’s crossroads, those moments that define your future. These words are the roadmap to an adventure that matters for eternity.
Kevin Springer was only 18 years old, reeling from disappointment and humiliation, when he discovered God was a dream wrecker. At age 15 he believed in God and thought he was his friend, but now God was silent when Kevin needed him most.
Kevin carefully planned and worked hard for his future—his college choice, his career, even where he’d live. He did everything required for success. That’s when God monkey-wrenched his life. His plans evaporated, leaving him in a vacuum of despair, isolation, and self-pity. Kevin decided to run. He packed his car and headed as far away from God as he could.

Power Evangelism by Kevin Noble Springer
The message of Power Evangelism has been embraced around the world, and the book that started it all has become a classic, with more than one million sold. In 2006, Christianity Today named it one of the fifty most significant Christian books published in the past fifty years.
This revised and updated edition describes the releasing of God’s power through signs and wonders to refresh, renew, heal, and equip His people. Drawing from the teaching of the New Testament and with illustrations from his own experience, Vineyard leader John Wimber persuades the reader to “yield control of our lives to the Holy Spirit.”
Though Wimber died in 1997, his teaching continues to spread throughout the Vineyard movement, through the broader renewal movement, and to Christians across the globe, even those who do not consider themselves charismatic. Coauthor Kevin Springer has found that since its first publication, the influenceof Power Evangelism has been explosive.
This edition includes a chapter-by-chapter study guide and reflects changes Springer and other power evangelism practitioners have made in presentation–not in content–for readers in the new millennium.

The Garage
When the Apostle Paul was detained by the Emperor Nero in Rome in AD 60, he had to wonder what God was doing. For the next two years he was under house arrest, but he continued ministering to visitors and encouraging churches through letters.
I’m no Paul, but I identify with him. I too have a Type-A personality. And I love starting things—ministries, magazines, books—to meet new challenges and influence people to live for God.
My own activism came to an abrupt halt in March of 2020 when California went on COVID-19 pandemic lockdown. I sheltered in place, turning our guest house into an office, feeling like God put me under house arrest.
You could say this book is a story inspired by minimalism—discarding the superfluous. As I sorted through decades of photos, I came to see a clearer sense of my life. But this is not about my life so much as God’s life in me, because the patterns and principles that make my life meaningful are available to anyone. This is the story of how God works in all of us when we allow him access.

Word of Truth, Word of Life
How a Psalm redeemed a mom, and saved a little boy’s life. There were only a few days left in the second semester of my junior year in college when Beth (not her true name) sat down across from me over breakfast in an empty dining hall. We had become friends during the semester because we preferred early breakfasts, when most students were still sleeping.
