Synopsis

The Perfect Stranger Gift Set

What if a stranger knew you better than you know yourself?
In these novellas, experience first-person accounts of two young skeptics who encounter Jesus, and his answers to their most challenging and most personal life questions.
Dinner with a Perfect Stranger
A cynical young businessman, Nick Cominsky, accepts an invitation to dinner with a stranger, thinking it’s a prank. What results is a one-on-one encounter with Jesus–the opportunity of a lifetime–and a conversation that covers everything from world religions and the afterlife to the Bible and life’s purpose.

A Day with a Perfect Stranger
Already concerned about her shaky marriage to a workaholic, devoted mother Mattie Cominsky is dismayed by her husband’s sudden interest in religion. Then an unexpected conversation with a stranger leads her to forever change some of her deepest views about marriage, fulfillment, life, and God.

Review

Praise for Dinner with a Perfect Stranger

“The choice is yours: Enjoy a delicious meal of, say, veal fantarella with grilled vegetables. Or spend a quiet hour reading Gregory’s book. You may find an altogether different sort of hunger has been sated by the final page. Brilliant in its simplicity, fearless in its presentation of the truth, Dinner with a Perfect Stranger is one invitation you'll want to RSVP.”
–Liz Curtis Higgs, author, Thorn in My Heart

Praise for A Day with a Perfect Stranger

“Don’t let David Gregory’s simple writing style fool you: the message shared throughout A Day with a Perfect Stranger is profound and the questions he raises are life changing.” –Liz Curtis Higgs, best-selling author of Bad Girls of the Bible

“Fasten your seatbelt for another marvelously divine encounter with the Perfect Stranger! Once again, Gregory masterfully demonstrates just how passionately and intimately our God loves each one of us. If you are looking for an encouraging faith encounter, the Perfect Stranger books are the most palatable and powerful tools of our day.”
–Shannon Ethridge, best-selling author of Every Woman’s Battle and Every Woman’s Marriage

“While I liked Dinner with a Perfect Stranger very much, I loved A Day with a Perfect Stranger. This book has the potential to make people think about what drives them, what keeps them from God, and what will ultimately fulfill them. In a feelings-based and satisfaction-driven society, this is an invaluable tool. People are hungering for the answers to questions Mattie gets to ask. I can't wait to hand it out to friends who do not yet know the Stranger in their midst.”
–Lisa Tawn Bergren, best-selling author of The Begotten

“Sometimes the simplest books can have the most profound influence, and David Gregory has done such a wonderful job capturing my imagination. Over and over as I read A Day with a Perfect Stranger I kept asking myself, what would I say if I ever sipped lattes with Jesus? And at the end of the book, I realized I have that opportunity every day. He’s not only listening, but He’s speaking, too. Anyone who enjoyed Dinner with a Perfect Stranger will love the sequel.”
–Rene Gutteridge, best-selling author of BOO and The Splitting Storm
