What is an exile? An exile is a person who has been broken, regarded as useless, and cast away. It's clear our world is full of exiles in need of assistance. Maybe you know some of them. Maybe you are one. But where is the Church God designed to care for them? For too long we have been an instrument of hurt rather than healing. Should we be so surprised a generation is leaving the Faith? The Church again needs to become a powerful force for good in this world. The Church must be the light of Christ to lead the exiles back home.
"Have you ever felt like you just didn't fit in? Have you ever thought everyone around you seems to have their act together, but you didn't? Has church brought more hurt than healing? Then 'The Exiles Next Door' will speak to your heart. Every pastor and church leader who desires to reach out to more than the 'cookie-cutter' Christians needs to consider what Sam shares in this book." -Dr. Cal Bodeutsch, Author of "Sometimes We Suffer," "Touching Heaven in Prayer," & "The Grace Way."
