"This man welcomes sinners and eats with them." Luke 15:2
In Jesus' day, eating with someone was a way to acknowledge that person as an equal. Religious leaders considered it unthinkable for a Jewish teacher to eat with people who were common, even unclean. But Jesus cared more about saving souls than saving face.
So, who are you eating with? Eats with Sinners introduces a biblical model for evangelism--building relationships like Jesus did one meal (or cup of coffee) at a time. Each chapter concludes with a "Meal Plan," which contains questions designed to give individual readers or small group members the opportunity for personal reflection and practical application of the principles outlined in each chapter. Fun sidebars scattered throughout the book feature recipes, meal traditions in Jesus' day, and case studies.

“If you are serious about reaching people for Christ, then Eats With Sinners is a must-read. This book will change how you look at evangelism and equip you to reach even more people for Christ.”
Mark Batterson, Lead Pastor of National Community Church, Author of "In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day"
"We've spent the last 30 years preaching to the choir through "Christian" publishing, radio, TV, and recording industries, and in the process we've actually forgotten how to engage the non-believing culture around us. Eats With Sinners is a wakeup call. It's time to pop the Christian bubble and start re-connecting with the world."
Phil Cooke, Television Producer and Author of Branding Faith
“It’s time for a change. Pre-packaged evangelism programs just aren’t working. Eats With Sinners helps Christians understand how to reach their friends for Christ, where they are.”
Pete Wilson, Lead Pastor, CrossPoint Church – www.Crosspoint.tv
"Eats with Sinners is wonderfully disturbing, to say the least. It’s a summons from God to have the life of Christ flow out from us to a lost world through relationship. If you want to get beyond churchianity, this book is a butt-kicker."
Ron Block, Grammy and Dove Award winning member of Alison Krauss and Union Station

I have just finished your book and I have to say, Thank you. God really spoke to me through this book. Each chapter in your book (I felt), was written in sync with what I am going through right now. —Bill N.
I find myself reaching for your books for that "just right story illustration or quote" I need when I am teaching.—Grace G.
"Arron's writing is first, biblical, but not only so...it's also relevant and appealing! He is able to make things funny, yet serious and also profound, yet simple. I would say it's the kind of writing that reaches both adult and teens alike, and keeps the interest of both while still managing to stir the heart on towards a better relationship with Christ. What more could you ask for?! Keep the books coming Arron, I haven't found one that I haven't been entertained and touched by yet!" —Kristi P.
