This past Thursday, I was at a meeting with pastors and leaders in Massachussetts. During an interview regarding Warrior Material, the leader of our Catalyst group asked what I would consider success when it comes to the circulation of Warrior Material.
Here is the gist of what I said in response:
If one person living under limitation, unworthiness, and feelings of inadequacy reads the book and has his/her warrior spirit activated; if he/she recognizes the great value and assignment God has for him/her and the wonderful opportunity we all have to serve on the front lines of God’s vast army, then I will consider the book succesful.
A few months after I wrote my first book, Running to the Impossible, a man wrote to me, “Marios, I said the prayer; I said the prayer!” What he meant is that when he got to the part of the book where I gave people an opportunity to ask Jesus Christ to come into their hearts as Lord and Savior, he prayed in that regard.
This gentleman was not the only one who “prayed the prayer” as a result of reading the book; however, even if he had been the only one, I would have considered the book a success.
I expect many to pray that prayer as they come to the close of Warrior Material. May God be glorified and may His Kingdom advance as we co-labor with Him for the harvest of souls!
