C. Peter Wagner - 6 Secrets to Living a Fruitful Life: Wisdom for Thriving in Life

E NDORSEMENTS

One of my great honors in life and ministry was to meet C. Peter Wagner and work alongside him on many occasions. He was a man of deep integrity and revelatory wisdom, a true servant of the Lord. He has had an amazing impact on the church all around the world. His gifts were many, and his ability to lead and inspire was legendary. But Id like to suggest that Peter Wagners true mark of greatness was his unwavering faithfulness to the end. And now we are given this profound book, which he wrote together with his amazing wife, Doris: 6 Secrets to Living a Fruitful Life. They could write it because they lived it. This book comes with great wisdom and insight. But even more than that, it comes with an impartation of grace to live the same fruitful life they did. Read it and enjoy itand lets run together into this increased lifestyle of fruitfulness.

Peter Wagner was a pioneer of faith. The impact that his life left on mine was unparalleled, as a spiritual father, mentor, and apostolic leader in the Body of Christ. As part of his legacy, Peter wrote a multitude of books and invaluable teachings that have blessed the global Church in countless ways. True to his nature, this final book in his collection imparts keys of wisdom that he accumulated during his rich lifelong experience. I heartily recommend 6 Secrets to Living a Fruitful Life because it carries Peters heart to equip believers for the work of ministry, while adding one more layer to the indelible legacy of a man of God who truly finished well.

I counted Peter as a close personal friend and his wife, Doris, remains so today. Peter was a gift to the Body of Christ globally. He set a standard of excellence in life and leadership for each of us to emulate. Peter left us a wealth of wisdom in his books, and I am grateful to follow in his footsteps as we continue on the path he pioneered for us. In this, his last book, he gives us the sure and true road map for living life in the abundant fruitfulness of God. The pages are filled with reminders of his humor, wit, and profound wisdom gained by a life well lived. Peter, you are greatly missed. Live on in your writings. Thank you, Doris, for bringing this book to print.

Ive only had a few mentors in my life and the wisest, most generous of them was Dr. C. Peter Wagner. The first thing he told me was Just call me Peter, but now I can honor him properly as a father, scholar, pioneer, and a teachers teacher. This book is probably his most valuable, as when you come to the twilight of your years you have a fresh perspective on the most important lessons to pass on. The chapter Pick Your Battles could save you from a major trap. And Pursue Convergence is the chapter people need more than any other as it describes a phenomena only 20 percent of ministries experience, and the researcher, Dr. J. Robert (Bobby) Clinton, used Peter as his model. I read Dull a Sharp Tongue before, but realized I needed to read it again. Every chapter is a mine with gems hidden inside. Hebrews 11 lists the heroes of faith and Dr. C. Peter Wagner walks among them. As it was written of them, it can be said that through this book, Peter, being dead yet speaketh. Youll want to listen to what he says.

Wow! I loved reviewing this book. It is Peter through and through. Peter was a great man, brilliant, world renowned. He also was a gracious, loving, encouraging, gentle, embracing man. He was a true father, always seeing the best in us. He also was a very practical man and talked to those of us who were close to him about living successfully in practical matters. He talked about wills, successors, as well as cutting-edge thoughts about where the church was going and how we should be thinking. I loved being in his and Doris presence. This book reflects everything about Peter so well. I was so blessed to be one of those in his closer group and to have known him not only as a leader but as a friend. This book is C. Peter Wagner through and through! Its the man I knew and revere today and every day! This book explains not only how to finish well but how to live successfully daily! Every leader needs this book. This is genuine Peter Wagner!

C. Peter Wagner, a man of God who blessed the Body of Christ more than most Christian ministries. Peters driving passion was to use his influence and divine giftings to help others succeed in their callings and be and do their best for the Kingdom. Because of his spirit and attitude and special gifted abilities, he developed eight major Christian organizations that became worldwide in their ministries. At 80 years of age, Peter released those ministries to the men and women he had helped train and inspire to build successful works that blessed the Body of Christ.

Though I had worked with restoring apostles and prophets into the church since 1954, when Peter started the International Coalition of Apostles, I gladly joined with Peter to promote the modern-day apostles. Peter was a humble man with faith and vision to accept and advance in restored truth and dare to do the difficult challenges. Peter became a very close friend and wrote Forewords for several of my books. At 86 years of age and 67 years of ministry, I look forward to the day I will be joining with Peter and the great cloud of witnesses to fulfill Gods eternal purpose throughout eternity. Bless all whom Peter loved and labored with in Gods Kingdom. This book is full of wisdom like the book of Proverbs and the greatest New Testament truths. This book is a classic of Kingdom principles, practical sayings, and many other valuables that will help readers grow in grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.
