This book tells the story of how thousands of believers, from suburban America to the jungles of the subcontinent of India, Pakistan, and beyond were brought together in a phenomenal work of God. No Christian was more ordinary than John Heerema, but he was obedient. God took him on an extraordinary, emotional, and often painful journey, shaping him to be a new kind of missionary on a new kind of mission. It was a simple strategy, a strategy not new after all, but ancient, because He had first shown it to us two thousand years ago. Over the next nine years, hundreds of obedient believers were grafted into an unbelievable ministry that has brought the salvation to tens of thousands. The book of Acts has been put into action once again in the ministry of Big Life. A Big Life is a must for everyone who wishes to see how God responds today to the obedience of his people.
