Holy Available by Gary Thomas is a wonderful book on an important part of the Christian life.  The basic premise, which is fleshed out in the first part of the book, is that Jesus our ascended Lord is still active today through his people.  We must go beyond merely avoiding evil and seek to be available for his use.  Part two gets specific, looking at what it might mean for us to make ourselves available to God: our eyes, our mouths, our ears, our minds, our hands, our feet, and our hearts.  Part three addresses being available for God’s glory, making progress, perseverance, and the context of the church.  This is a book to read slowly and ponder and apply.  Challenging and highly recommended.
