\"The<\/a>I’ve also started on Felicity Dale’s ‘An Army of Ordinary People’<\/a>. I’ve only read the first two chapters, but it looks like being a great book already. It opens with Hank’s story. Hank is a man who used to say very little, but who dared to try starting a very simple church with some people he knew. Those people told others about their experiences, and Hank’s family got wind of it too, and Hank just kept on starting churches!
