Continuing where their previous book, The Hungry Always Get Fed, left off, this narrative encompasses five years in the life of IRIS Ministries - a rollercoaster of highs and lows, amazing miracles and overwhelming need. Woven into the story is teaching from Heidi Baker that communicates the distilled wisdom of all the Bakers have learned about the heart of the gospel in 30 years of mission and church planting. More than any of their previous books, this book communicates the heart of what Rolland and Heidi have learned from the Holy Spirit and then applied. They share their core values - simple, controversial and non-optional - tested and adopted over time, which must apply to any missions context if it is to be successful. Read and be inspired. About the authors: ROLLAND & HEIDI BAKER are the founders and directors of IRIS Ministries and have been missionaries for 30 years. They have taken deliberate steps to associate themselves with the world's poorest people and have become known for "stopping for the one". After spending many years ministering exclusively in Mozambique, Rolland and Heidi now travel internationally, teaching others about the simplicity of "passion and compassion" in the ministry of the Gospel.
Revival is about the Reviver. Nothing More and Nothing LessThe evidence of revival in Africa through IRIS Global is clear to see: tens of thousands of churches have been planted and hundreds of thousands of lives have been surrendered to Christ. But what have been the keys to seeing such a revival sustained over so many years?Rather than offering a transferable model - because everyone's context is different - Rolland Baker shares the five core principles that have become the bedrock of IRIS Global's ministry. They reveal how revival can be sustained by supernatural love. These five principles fuel a cooperation with the Holy Spirit that leads to a Kingdom outpouring. Rolland writes, "We don't impose these values on our ministry - the Spirit of God has imposed them on us. We simply recognize and adopt them." Readers will grasp both a deep longing for authentic relationship with the Lord and see how His love and power might be released in their own lives and ministry."The core values for Iris ministries are not just ideals and theories. They are the way of life for Rolland, Heidi and their staff. The stories that Rolland shares are very real--sacrificial, miraculous, hard, hopeful, and joyous. I don't know any two people who have faced more devastating, and even life threatening circumstances than these two. Neither do I know any who have experienced more unexplainable miracles. I've watched as time and time again, in impossible situations, they have abandoned themselves in full surrender to Love, held out empty hands, and God has showed up in power to fill them to overflowing. Rolland beautifully highlights that the key to sustained revival is a revived heart and that only happens in a love relationship with Jesus. That is the key to the life they live. Do you want revival? Love Jesus with all your heart. Do you want to see your family, your church, your city transformed. Love Jesus with all your heart. Do you want to experience more of the supernatural? Love Jesus with all your heart. Take the time to prayerfully read this book, and then watch your heart burn with a greater love for Jesus."-Bill Johnson, Bethel Church, ReddingAbout the authorRolland Baker is a third generation missionary who has devoted his life to serving the poor and proclaiming the name of Jesus for over thirty years. Rolland and Heidi Baker lead Iris Global, a missions organization that exists to participate in bringing the Kingdom of God to earth in all its aspects, but most especially through their calling to serve the very poor in Mozambique. Rolland's passion is to share a message of love and childlike faith.
BILL JOHNSON, Senior Leader, Bethel Church, Redding, California: "The impact of Unwrapping Lazarus will be powerful and long lasting. It needs to be read by people from a great variety of backgrounds and occupations. We were born for the freedom described on these pages. Be ready to be inspired, instructed, and encouraged." DANNY SILK, Director of Global Transformation Institute: "In these pages is enough courage, risk and revelation to spark a personal revival for the reader and a corporate revival for those who hear the testimonies ... I highly recommend that you read this book and that you prepare yourself for an encounter with the Living God." Pete Carter helps us to understand with greater clarity how to participate in the amazing works of God and enrich the lives of those around us with His love and power. He uses the story of Lazarus, brought back from the dead, as a parallel for our spiritual lives. Though Lazarus was raised up, he wasn't truly "free" until his restrictive grave clothes were removed. One of our main tasks in serving Jesus is to "unwrap Lazarus" - to help people become all they were created to be. We were all born to be fully "unwrapped" - to love God more, trust Him more, and do all that Jesus did and more! About the authorPete Carter is a medical doctor and church leader. He is part of the senior leadership team of North Kent Community Church and part of the teaching staff of NKCC's School of Supernatural Ministry.
