Love Stains
The definition of an evangelist is "one who brings good news." That's pretty
uncomplicated which is how Bob likes to keep
it. Let's be real: Most of us have heard an
evangelist bring a condemning message to the
Church instead of one that is empowering.
The purpose of this book is to show a different
picture of evangelism altogether.
That's right. No tracts. No door-to-door.
Evangelism is not about closing a sale it's
about loving people.
Imagine God using us just the way we are to
touch people in everyday life What would
that look like?
A simple smile, a gentle word of encouragement, a prophetic statement, a gift given in
due season, the courage to hold the heartbroken, the ability to love the unlovable, heal
the sick, and deliver the oppressed all because of Jesus in us.
Love is messy. Jesus' love was messy. His garments were stained when blood poured
from his side as His love was displayed on that unforgettable day. But in the midst of
that mess, love left a mark. Love stains are imprinted on people's hearts forever

'Love Stains'by Bob Johnson gives us the premise: we 'Treat hell's trash as Heaven's Treasures" We Choose Love people Unconditionally; we change and transform into a compassionate friend who can help and encourage one person at a time... Bob gives fun stories of people who were changed for the Better because of the Heaven's Treasure philosophy.
Thank you Bob Johnson We Are Changed because Jesus in You.
Amazon Books Review Below:
instead encourages simply “leaking” Jesus everywhere you go. Through incredible stories of Bob’s years doing street ministry in San Francisco and Redding, with testimonies from Burning Man in Nevada, and the brothels of Brazil, Bob shares his practical tools of how to follow the Holy Spirit versus methods. The result is a reader who not only knows how loved he is by God, but also understands how to pour out that love on others in a powerful, life–changing, and Jesus–like way.
