This is not a theological treatise on why you should live incarnationally or why cities matter. This is just a raw truth-telling book written by a practitioner who lives out what the Gospel commands him to do the best way that he can. The premise is that we may be living our lives in too safe a way and need to intentionally plant ourselves with deep roots in a community (with its goods and bads) to see the gospel grow. Stories from Alan's family's adventures to those of his friends around the city and the country who are making impacts in their neighborhoods one new friend at a time are what litters this book. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to be inspired to make the Great Commission "GO" happen in their own neighborhood.
