More than "another preacher," York has given his life to fight for the voiceless, marginalized, and build bridges to bring glimpses of God's Kingdom to earth. Do Something Beautiful is more than a book. It's an invitation into the story of God, who is making all things new. Spending time with York has enriched, and changed my life, and I believe this book can change yours to see a God who is bigger, better, and more beautiful than your wildest dreams. And the best part... He wants to use you! In a world full of division, pain, and brokenness, let's do something beautiful.?Nick HallEvangelist, Founder of PULSE and CEO of the US Lausanne CommitteeIn a world of despair, injustice, and hopelessness, Moore reminds us of the beauty of the cross and challenges us to reflect that beauty in our everyday lives and in our everyday relationships. Do Something Beautiful is a must-read guide to finding your place in God?s story.Tom LinPresident/CEO of InterVarsity Christian FellowshipYork's book Do Something Beautiful has been a joy to read! He offers great perspective for our current generation?s longing to be a part of the bigger story. Using honest and transparent personal stories, York beautifully portrays the gospel as the foundation to that inner longing for true beauty. Personally, I love how he did not try to avoid the pain in his own life or those around him, but rather embraced it in order to find God in the midst of pain-that we must be willing to embrace the cost, however high, to do something truly beautiful. The stories he tells will stir your heart to do something beautiful as you walk with Jesus! There is a longing for true revival and awakening all across the earth and its stories and books like these that will provide tools for how to walk in the radical love of Jesus and see revival and awakening!Lindy and The Circuit Riders From the Back Cover There has to be more than this, right?You want to love and be loved in a way that changes the world.
