You are invited into a constant, powerful, intimate relationship with God.
A Luminous Encounter elaborates on this invitation through inspiring biography, personal testimony, and biblical teachingwith practical tips to help you experience an ever-deeper relationship with God.
Follow Neville Jayaweera, a Buddhist until his unexpected encounter with Jesus Christ. Excerpts of his diaries and personal correspondence reveal how this encounter brought him from brokenness and betrayal into a life characterized by joy and peace.

This relationship was a sustaining and transformative force in not only his life but the lives of the many people he prayed for and taught.
Neville nurtured his relationship with God through prayer and Scripture, learning to fully embrace biblical truths about who he was as a new creation in Christ. A Luminous Encounter provides spiritual insights to help you do the same. Neville's disciple and editor, Ann Shakespeare, has distilled some of Neville's most powerful teachings in a way that is challenging yet accessible.

There are occasions in biblical history where we see a breaking in of the spirit of God. In addition, there is a command and a promise that indicates the possibility of revival in all generations after Christ, in all places. The area inhabited by the Naga tribes, (much of this area was set up as Nagaland, a state of India, on Dec. 1, 1963), experienced such a visit from God in a series of waves during the 2nd half of the 20th century.
God's recent visitation in Nagaland was one of the most significant anywhere in the world. Yet little is available telling about it. This book fills that void.
"In a whole region of India, almost every soul came to Christ. Reading the stories in this book was almost shocking to me. Could I believe for this kind of revival? We must not dial down the promises. Every revival is an invitation to invoke the God of impossibilities to act again." - from the Foreword by Lou Engle, founder of The Send
On more than a few occasions my jaw dropped while reading this manuscript While these occurrences may seem outrageous or even conflict with our contemporary image of revival, they are nevertheless clear manifestations of the glory of Godrevival! from the Afterword by Adam Narciso, founder of Jesus Movement Now

Blending rich small-church theology with corresponding practical outcomes, Maximize! convinces small-church pastors, elders, deacons, children's and youth workers, worship leaders, and members that small size is not a liability but a trait begging to be utilized for maximum benefit to all. Readers will see that their-size church is well-suited for fulfilling God's mission and in fact has advantages. Maximize! does not pit small against big; it is not about what size is best but about how to be the best at any given size.
Thirty years in the making, the lessons in Maximize! have been continually refined as author Ron Klassen has taught them in classes and dozens of seminars, counseled, encouraged, overseen, and mentored hundreds of pastors, and interacted with small-church attendees from every state in the US and most provinces of Canada. Too often, those in small churches are apologetic about their church's size, too quick to see weaknesses and limitations, too prone to compare their church with bigger churches and come away feeling inferior. Too often, those in small churches try to emulate big churches but come up short.
Rather than trying to imitate large churches, small churches do well to study themselves and their communities, and then prayerfully design ministries uniquely suited for their size, place, and time.
