 a must read for all professing christians and anyone looking for truth May 16, 2007

A very well written book that helps us get back to the roots of christianity. Relationship and kingdom dynamics not religion but relationship with God on a personal level.

I read this book and will be reading it a few more times.
I believe that the Lord will use Bill Johnson and many other ministers like him to prepare the Church to be used mightily as the Lord has always intended.
I highly encourage everyone who wants to be used of the Lord to read this book with an open heart and mind and with much prayer. Lord Bless
This book was a blessing before I even read it! January 2, 2007

One of the ongoing prayers I've always had is for the Lord to give me more faith. I found out about Bethel Church and Pastor Bill one day when watching Christian World News a few weeks ago. I went on the web shortly after the program to find out more about Pastor Bill and his church. Its at that point that I found out about his book, "When Heaven Invades Earth." I liked what I had read from the reviews on Amazon so I made it a point to check out the book next time I was in Barnes and Noble.
A week or two later my wife and I were sitting in Barnes and Noble reading in the cafe. I had just finished reading a few chapters in the bible when I got up and told her that I was going to check and see if they had a copy of the book. I checked the Christian section and lo and behold, they had one copy. "Great!" I thought and brought the book back to the cafe to look through. Upon opening, I discovered that something was written on the back of the front cover:
"From: The Clancy's
We love you Bono!!
Thank you
I hope this book blesses you!!"
I thought to myself "that was strange," and showed it to my wife. What could that mean? The only Bono that I could think of was the one from U2, but that didn't make too much sense. At that point I had a feeling. I just KNEW that the Lord wanted me to have that book. I tested that feeling and went back upstairs to the nearest customer service desk. I asked if they had any other copies of the book in stock, because the one I found there had been written in... knowing that they probably didn't have any other copies in stock. They thought it was strange that it was written in like that. They looked up the book in the computer and told me that they shouldn't even have THAT copy! The two people at the customer service desk told me that they had never seen anything like that happen before. I asked them that since the book was written in and it apparently shouldn't even be there, could I just take it home? They looked at each other and told me to go downstairs to talk to the manager.
At this point I was getting more and more excited. I got my wife and we both went downstairs to the other customer service desk where the manager and others were. Interestingly enough, the woman right in front of me was asking where she could find "The Purpose Driven Life." Incredible! I told the customer service rep that the people from the other desk told me to come look for the manager. I told her the same story. She told me that someone else probably put it on the shelf and that she had never heard of that happening before either. I then asked her as well, if this book isn't Barnes and Noble's and its been written in, can I just take it? She told me that in a situation like that, they would normally put it in the lost and found, but she'd ask her manager (who was right next to her, busy with another customer). She summarized the whole story to her manager, who briefly glanced at the book. The manager motioned in my direction and said "just give it to him." The other customer service rep shrugged and then handed the book over to me and told me that it was mine! Free!
I then made some small talk with her, wondering what the Bono reference that was written in the book could mean. I knew of only two Bono's... Sonny Bono and the Bono from U2. She then let me know that U2 had a book signing in the store about a month earlier for a book they just released! The mystery was solved. Based on hearing that, "the Clancy's" that were mentioned on the front cover must've brought "When Heaven Invades Earth" to give to Bono during the book signing. After the book signing, one of two things must've happened. A bunch of things that people brought in to give Bono were left behind and one of the people working at Barnes and Noble put the book meant for Bono on the shelf... or possibly that BONO HIMSELF put the book on the shelf!
The most amazing thing is that this book was an answer to my prayer to God to give me more faith before I even read it! It was a book on faith and how we need to have more of it, and it was by faith that I got that book from Barnes and Noble for free!
I echo everyone's positive comments about this book and would give it 10 stars if I could. It's rare that I consider a book life changing, but this is one of them! Do yourself a favor and pick this book up
Word of Faith accusations are silly and kneejerk.... December 17, 2006

look, i understand the concerns and have grown up in such crowds my whole life but i have listened to Johnson and read 2 of his books now. The guy is solid. People will be scared and start screaming that this is word of faith but what it is is the Word of God lived out. Jesus and the Apostles acted out the Word of God and the result was signs and wonders. This is what Bill Johnson is calling us to. He can be sloppy with his etymology (he gets confused about the roots of words at times) but if this is the worst thing that can be said about him then who cares? I love his heart and I love the fact that he is humble and teaching others to walk in the power of God. We could use more such people in the Kingdom.......
