Twelve Influential Influencers
While writing this book over the span of two months, 265,000 (primarily young) people attended three music events in my Nashville neighborhood. Two hundred thousand were at Bonnaroo and the CMA Music Festival, while 65,000 filled LP Field for the ageless Rolling Stones. What counters the values transmitted at these mega-events? Whos standing on point to reach the generations being so heavily influenced by todays pop culture?
The following twelve people, whom Ive personally known as friends (most for 40 years or more), have helped lead the way. Theyve impacted my life by their authenticity and dedication to shape informed influencers in these turbulent times. There are many others, but these incredible servants are worthy of honor to the glory of God:
Che Ahn
Ron Luce
Frances Anfuso
Winkey Pratney
Mike Bickle
Chris Rogers
Mike Brown
Mat Staver
Chuck Colson
Steve Strang
Lou Engle

One bullet to the back of my head and Im done.
Standing in an inner-city alleyway as a college senior, those words flashed in my head. Picked up hitchhiking by some Cleveland thugs, it appeared that my life would be over in an instant. Yet God miraculously spared me to serve Him, and His people, for forty-five years.
I want my life to count. I believe that you do too. Thats why youre holding this book and are about to embark on a journey to make yourself an informed influencer in todays rapidly changing culture. By investing 15 minutes daily for 30 days, your life will be changed as you apply yourself faithfully.
If youre a parent, this tool will train your family.
If youre a pastor, this is your secret weapon.
I pastored and planted churches for decades, so I know its hard work. Barna Research revealed in 2015 that although ninety percent of Christian leaders believed that the Bible addresses most of todays controversial issues, only ten percent were bold enough to address them lest they lose people and tithes. If thats you, heres your resource to supply your adults and youth with what they need if youve been holding back.
So lets begin our journey. Lets enter the conversation. May the experience give you motivation, stimulation, and reflection til you cross the finish line!
Unity
Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand.
Jesus Christ (Matt. 12:25)
Community
To go fast, go alone. To go far, go together.
African Proverb
Authenticity
Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Opportunity
The optimist sees opportunity in every calamity. A pessimist, calamity in every opportunity.
Winston Churchill
Simplicity
Make everything as simple as possible, but no simpler.
Albert Einstein
