You Want Me To Do What?: Get Off Your Blessed Assurance and Do Something! by Michael Youssef, PhD

When individuals feel God telling them to do something that is out of their comfort zone, what is the instinctive reaction? To run for the hills? To pretend they didn't hear? To argue? Dr. Michael Youssef explains that God challenges every Christian to fulfill the call He has placed on their lives. Dr. Youssef walks readers through the story of Joshua and leads them to discover how to take on what seems to be impossible, learn from failure, complete the victory, claim their inheritance, and share their story. By the end of this journey they will be inspired to put the lessons of this book into practice and claim the promises that accompany God's calling.


Dr. Michael Youssef is the founding pastor of The Church of the Apostles in Atlanta. Dr. Youssef was born in Egypt and lived in Lebanon and Australia before becoming an American citizen in 1984. He holds degrees from Moore College in Sydney, Australia, and from Fuller University in California, as well as a PhD in social anthropology from Emory University. He and his wife reside in Atlanta and have four grown children and several grandchildren. You can learn more about him at http://www.apostles.org/.
