By: Jeannie Marie

Narrated by: Jeannie Marie

God can use you to change the world…right where you are.

Join Jeannie Marie, bestselling author and advocate for global outreach, as she teaches you how to follow Jesus to the nations in your neighborhood and around the world.

In the middle of diapers, dishes, papers, or presentations, deep down, we all long to live a life of purpose. In Across the Street and Around the World, Jeannie Marie shows you how you can change the world right where we already live, work, play, and study--by learning to grow genuine, spiritually deep friendships with people from other countries, cultures, and faiths.

In her refreshing "you-can-do-this-too" style, Marie leads you by the hand with clear steps, try-it sections, and beautifully crafted prayers. She gently guides you away from common cultural missteps so you can offer Jesus in a winsome way, while honoring culture, faith, and family.

Across the Street and Around the World will give you the tools you need to:

• Engage the world at your doorstep--specifically refugees and international students in your community
• Intentionally cultivate discipleship relationships so that you're encouraging our cross-cultural friends to follow Jesus Christ
• Gain global experience, education, and exposure while building a bridge from the nations in your neighborhood to the ends of the earth

With Jennie's guidance, you will be ready to start small, start soon, and start somewhere you already are. Across the Street and Around the World will give you confidence, courage, and compassion to make an impact in the world.

Global perspective

this book gave me a new global perspective on the task. this book is a must to hear.

Best missions book I’ve read

When you read this book, I expect three things to happen: you will be deeply challenged, you will develop a clearer sense of direction, and you will feel more equipped.
Part of what makes this work is the author’s authenticity. You come to understand that the lessons in this book are ones that she had learn. To that end, she lights a path for you.
I could not recommend this book more highly!

God’s plan for the nations, and your place in it!

This book is so confronting of our western presumptions and tendencies, when it comes to the great commission. As a long term overseas worker, I wish I could have had this book earlier in my walk with Jesus! This book exhorts believers just like Jesus does, by both humbling and encouraging! It is written with humility and on strong, stated Biblical principles.
If you want to explore God’s heart for the nations and your place in it, this is a fantastic place to start!
