Synopsis

A thermometer follows the dictates of its environment, but a thermostat dictates the conditions of its surroundings. In this book, Gregory Lan Ijiwola, explores the Christian call to be like thermostats to the world, exerting godly influence on it, rather than being influenced by it. No matter your background, vocation or location, God’s plan is for you to be a person of influence; someone whose life greatly impacts others, creating positive changes around you, making a notable difference. Through fascinating examples, amusing personal anecdotes, and refreshing biblical insights, Gregory analyzes the Church's ongoing battle with irrelevance. He unravels the causes of the growing trend of Christian insignificance in the secular world and offers believers the weapons needed to win this battle. You will learn, • What true influence is • Why it is essential for you to be a person of influence • How to multiply the influence of God in and through your life • How to tap into your unique calling, placement and potentials in God to make a difference in the world, and much more. Irresistible Influence will motivate you, empowering you to rise as a formidable force of influence for the Kingdom of God. You will be empowered to be one of the change agents your family, city, nation and generation may have been waiting for. If you have ever dreamed of making a mark on your world like some of the people you read about and admire, then this book is the right one to start you off on that journey.
