How to Double Your Number of Volunteers
By Nelson Searcy with Jennifer Dykes Henson (© 2012. Baker)

“God has never operated solely through those who profess faith in him. He used unbelievers for his purposes throughout Scripture and often revealed himself to them in the process. As you think through the stages of faith, I implore you to stay open-minded. Question your point of view and have the courage to shift it if you see fit. You could greatly increase both your ministry system and your evangelism potential by allowing unchurched people to belong to the church and begin becoming more like Jesus before they believe.” —Nelson Searcy, from the book
