This Ordinary Adventure: Settling Down Without Settling
"I love how Christine and Adam Jeske retell their adventures, together, with honesty, humor, and humble wisdom.This Ordinary Adventureis a rich and engaging story that all of us, regardless of our narratives, dreams and circumstances, can relate to in some way. And that's what makes this book a must read, because Christine and Adam's 'ordinary' story opens our eyes and hearts to all of the possibilities, wonder and beauty that can be found in our own stories. And there's nothing ordinary about that." (Matthew Paul Turner, author, speaker and blogger)"Adam and Christine Jeske are completely serious that they can have an 'amazing day' regardless of what's thrown at them via background, culture, environment or relationships. The best part is that their invitation to this way of thinking extends to everyone!This Ordinary Adventureis strong stuff for those seeking to experience life in all of its fullness . . . no matter where they happen to be." (Steve Haas, vice president/chief catalyst, World Vision United States)"Get ready to laugh and cry while being inspired through the Jeskes' global trailblazing.They challenge North Americans not to settle for the mundane but to get off our couches and ride on a faith adventure in our everyday lives.This Ordinary Adventureis a must-read for anyone wanting to get unstuck from the ordinary, and to make courageous faith choices at every life stage." (Tom Lin, vice president, director of missions and director of the Urbana Student Missions Conference, InterVarsity Christian Fellowship/USA)"As a former missionary who was plagued with the thoughtI've become everything I made fun of,I foundThis Ordinary Adventurea delight. Adam and Chrissy unpack in touching and humorous ways that a missional life and an ordinary life is not either/or but rather both/and." (Shayne Moore, activist and author of Global Soccer Mom)
