Lord, Make My Life a Miracle

Ray Ortlund was tired of being an ordinary pastor at an ordinary church. In a scene that seems right out of a Charles Sheldon book, Ortlund stood in front of his congregation and asked them to make a commitment—a commitment to God, to the church, and to the work. He called this little ragtag band of Christians the Company of the Committed, something happened—a spark set fire to an ember. A few years later there was no small group with a catchy name because the entire church had become a Company of the Committed. Like Ray, many Christians desire to be more than ordinary; they wish their lives to be a miracle. In their classic book, Ray and Anne tell how one band of Christians transformed their lives, their church, and their community.
