Drum roll, please … I’m finally launching my first eBook! After weeks of writing, editing, and formatting, I’m excited to share with you: Created for Community: On Mission to Mend.
“In just a few short pages of sharp, witty, Biblical truths, Susanne Maynes points us to God’s created need in every human: other humans! By design, God made us needy for community, and Susanne shares insightful wisdom that will minister into the craving of every human heart.” — Clem Ferris, ThD // Grace Churches International
The Powerful Message in this Little Book
Based on my experiences growing up in the Church and wrestling with flawed human nature, this short mission statement is a call for Christians to see the Church as Jesus does. No matter how painful relationships can be, we are wired for connection.
“In Created for Community, Susanne Maynes lays out a powerful manifesto that lobbies for your participation in restoring and unifying God’s flock. You’ll be provoked to pondering, stirred within your soul and inspired to engage – to humbly and genuinely connect with others for the sake of others and God.” – Chad Gramling // Blogger & Author
