What if we're living within a decade of Jesus's return? Followers of Jesus have awaited that day since Jesus ascended into the clouds forty days after his resurrection. Whether he comes in the next ten years or 150 years, there will be a generation of Christ followers tasked with bearing witness to his light through the perilous times that precede his coming. They will need a love stronger than their own self-interest, a light greater than the lies of darkness, a resilient faith that is only strengthened in adverse circumstances, and an undeniable hope in a future of God's choosing. And if that will serve them well in those days, wouldn't it be worth living that way today. As an author and speaker, Wayne travels the world, helping people find freedom from performance-based religion to embrace a relationship with God that is deeply rooted in his affection for them. A former pastor and contributing editor to Leadership Journal, his most popular titles include He Loves Me: Learning to Live in the Father's Affection, So You Don't Want to Go to Church Anymore, Finding Church, In Season, and A Man Like No Other. He was also co-writer and publisher of The Shack, which sold over thirty million copies worldwide. In 2018, he published 'A Language of Healing for a Polarized Nation: Creating Safe Environments for Conversations about Race, Politics, Sexuality, and Religion' along with co-authors Arnita Taylor and Bob Prater. His latest book is It's Time: Letters to the Bride of Christ at the End of the Age. A former pastor, Wayne now hosts Lifestream.org, which provides resources for spiritual growth, and a podcast at TheGodJourney.com, encouraging people to think outside the box of organized religion. Both have inspired countless people to a more vibrant faith and a greater understanding of living in the church Jesus is building in the world. He has been married to Sara for 50 years and lives in Southern California, where they enjoy their adult children and grandchildren.
