Harvey Cox
Thomas Professor of Divinity
Harvard Divinity School This collection of sermons steadfastly invokes the responsibility of ordinary Christians to work for justice and spread love throughout a world dying for lack of both. This is a message that is badly needed today, and Gary deserves our high praise for articulating it with such care and conviction.
R. Marie Griffith
Associate Professor
Princeton Theological Seminary This excellent book, Out From The Ordinary, is certainly not an ordinary book. It is well written and laden with pithy insights into life and faith. You will be challenged as you read to step out of the ordinary and experience the fullness of God's grace and love.
Millard Fuller
Founder, Habitat for Humanity International Jesus, the Master Storyteller, has a sterling student in Gary Carver. Stories of truth, in the words of Carver, are like the gentle caresses of a parent lovingly stroking the soul of a beloved child. Great storytellers, in the tradition of Jesus, are rare. Gary Carver is one, and deserves to be pondered as well as perused. His stories make me want to preach.

by Gary L. Carver (Author), Fred Craddock (Foreword by)
Packed with personal stories of warmth and family, these sermons show how God takes a frightened group of disciples and sends them out to be the most constructive force for good in the history of the world. They demonstrate that God can move ordinary people to extraordinary heights, and that our success is more dependent upon our availability to God than on our own ability.
Just try to read only one of these lively, pithy sermons in everyday language! You cannot. I tried. They are like potato chips. You want to nibble on another and another. But unlike chips they contain the requisite vitamins and proteins of the Christian life. Gary Carver's words can provide a daily dose of what we all need. I recommend this book highly, even if you don't feel hungry.Harvey Cox
