I actually was traveling when I became aware of the release of <i>It</i> and went to the closest Borders and Barnes & Noble and neither had it, so it's on my list of books to order from amazon.com. With your excerpts I am now more-excited to read what Pastor Craig writes on how God makes "It" happen. Thanks again! Jon, thanks for the comment and the video links!

The illusive "it" is what attracts people and makes ministries effective. Craig says "it" can't be taught, but "it" can be caught. God gives "it." "It" has a lot to do with the Holy Spirit. Churches that have "it" are incredibly focused, willing to fail, led by people who have "it," and those people see potential when others see problems. Craig says "the spark of passion ignites the fuel for innovation." And he says "it" follows big vision. God makes "it" happen. "It" is from him, by him, and for his glory.
