Synopsis

One man has ignited the hearts of hundreds of thousands through his best-selling books. The other has touched the hearts of hundreds of thousands by washing the feet of men and women around the world. Now God chasers Tommy Tenney and Dave Cape have teamed up to call the Church to embark on an exciting journey that will change the way we live. Dismantling the long-held misconception of servanthood as drudgery, the authors proclaim that a servant's heart is not only the key to greatness, it is the key to experiencing true joy. In fact, servanthood is a dignity and delight! Even as the world asks, "What's in it for me?" imagine a revival of servanthood among the people of God and what it would mean to a hungry and hurting world.

About this title

From the Back Cover

"THE GREATEST AMONG YOU WILL BE YOUR SERVANT." Jesus (Matthew 23:11) God Chasers Tommy Tenney and David Cape send a resounding, core message to all Christians: God's primary weapon for winning on Earth lies in being a servant. So while it may seem a paradox, the towel is far mightier than the sword.

David Cape lives that truth by washing the feet of thousands on his servanthood treks throughout the world. On one trip across South Africa, Cape traveled a few thousand miles, carrying a cross and bowl weighing 45 pounds--and by the simple but hallowed act of washing and toweling their feet, he pointed thousands of men and women to Christ. Tommy Tenney is synonymous with pursuing the heart of God, striving for total unity among Christians of all denominations and working together as God's humble servants.

Tommy Tenney. David Cape. Together, they bring you some of the most touching, humorous stories you have ever read--with the happiest possible endings!
