Evangelical Scandal Prompts Young Missionary to Call for Transparency in New E-Book

Young American missionary to Central America declares that it's time for Christian leaders to come clean about real life. Paul Heier, a missionary to Central America, has been looking for a solid Christian mentor his whole life. He feels like many "established" Christian leaders are hiding behind their big church buildings and big ministries. He says in his new e-book, "I'm not mad about any leader's particular sin, I'm mad that they act like they don't have any."

Alajuela, Costa Rica (PRWEB) November 5, 2006 -- Young American missionary to Central America declares that it's time for Christian leaders to come clean about real life in a new e-book.

The book available on Lulu.com (http://www.lulu.com/content/500601) addresses some the following themes:

Looking for Honesty, Not Perfection

Power, Politics, and Money among Christian Leaders

Stop Using Me

My Generation is Looking for Someone to Follow

This hard-hitting book captures the essence of Heier's heart: that leaders need to depend on Christ, be real with people, admit their faults, and preach the message of the Bible. Heier believes in preaching against homosexuality, abortion, and other hot-button issues, but says the problem is the tone of the message. "Our tone must always be set by God. We work for him and not for our own benefit or prestige," Heier stated. Christian leaders are to be servants of God and the community instead of trying to procure fame, fortune, and fantasy.
