A step-by-step guide to developing your idea from the first spark to the finished product. Is the prototype half built? Is the book half written? Is the project not finished? My Idea comes alongside you as a whimsical companion and prods you with questions that help flesh out your idea until it is finally finished and ready to go out into the world. Start by answering big questions that build the foundation of your idea, such as “What is my idea?” and “Whom and how does my idea help?”Next, zoom in closer to shape and feed your idea more specifically—“When do I want my idea to be finished?” and “Whom do I trust with my rough draft?”Exquisite and whimsical hand-drawn illustrations This book will spark your imagination and creativity, helping you dream and create again with the childlike fearlessness that has been hiding deep inside you all along. The more you process and prepare with the help of My Idea, the more confidence and strength you’ll find to finally finish your idea and release it into the wild.

Greg was homeless. As he walked through the park one day, he was surrounded by people. Good people. Caring people. Christian people. People doing ministry. But people totally oblivious to Greg. No one saw him, talked to him, noticed him, or tried to minister to him. The Christians were preoccupied—working hard on the ministry they were putting together—a ministry intended to provide help and healing to the most vulnerable in their city, a ministry designed to reach . . . the homeless!How do Christians, benefactors of the overwhelming grace of an immeasurably generous God, fail so miserably at showing and distributing—of all things—grace?In voice and style evocative of Donald Miller and Scot McKnight, yet with a message all his own, Rod Tucker explores how we Christians have become masters of self-deceptive and fake moral living. Just like Adam and Eve, we don''t want anyone to know we are spiritually naked. But covering up around God denies us the freedom of his grace. Until we can be honest with ourselves, honest with God, and honest with others, daily grace will continue to elude us, either as gift received or as gift given. We remain trapped in our Botox spirituality until we come to grips with exactly who we are.
