You've never loved like this before
Everyone is trying to change the world. Whether it's bringing justice to Darfur, fighting global warming, building schools, or rebuilding cities, people are flocking to causes bigger than themselves. They are dissatisfied with the status quo and are sacrificing their time and money to change it. God's people should be at the forefront of this movement. But we're not.
Author and pastor Vince Antonucci challenges you to take part in changing the world, and shows you how to do it by adopting the strategy Jesus used: becoming a guerrilla lover. Just as a small group of people who deliver surprise attacks in close proximity can change the course of a war, you can change the course of this world with love. With engaging true stories of everyday guerrilla lovers, Antonucci will inspire you to wage war on complacency and surprise the people around you with acts of love.

Reviews
"
Guerrilla Lovers is a fun read. It is whimsical, conversational, and full of pop culture references--common and obscure--but it is also unforgettable. Using current events, personal experience, and biblical stories, Antonucci exposes readers to the Jesus revolution: Love God. Love People. This revolution starts small: showing mercy, throwing parties, simple acts of service. Then it explodes--both in Antonucci's engaging writing style and in his vision for a world changed by the Jesus revolution. This book will light people up and get them dreaming and moving . . . and maybe even starting their own revolutions for the Kingdom."--

"It may seem impossible, but this book can turn your life upside down and make you laugh at the same time. It inspires readers to do extraordinary things in everyday life in regard to radical witnessing, confrontational testifying, excessive giving, and personal disciplining. . . . Guerrilla Lovers conveys deep truths in a convicting and enthralling way. Stories and anecdotes relate the message to real life, and specific challenges at the ends of chapters prompt action. This book rejects the life of safety and complacency Antonucci sees as a problem for many Christians. Readers come away reeling with ideas and excited to reach others for Jesus. I recommend this book for every library; it could change patrons' lives."--Church Libraries
