There is a deep longing in our hearts for people to know they are deeply loved by Jesus, and as a result, walk consistently in a fresh intimacy with Him.

  1. “Living beyond the Borders” is both an encouragement and a gentle challenge to all those who feel themselves restricted in their quest to know God. The restrictions may have many causes – religious uppbringing, imposed secular and pseudo-intellectual anti-God biases or even just “plain old me” that just cannot get my head around the God I cannot see. This booklet, through simply and cleverly written heart felt and thought provoking picture stories, leads you into the revelation that God can be known and experienced through the person of Jesus. John Langford shows us that this knowing of Jesus is not restricted by the boxes that church and society put on him. Indeed, there are no boxes, restrictions if you like, to knowing Jesus. Instead, there is an ever increasing landscape where you walk and commune with him and still want more. The amazing thing is you discover that God, in the face of Jesus Christ, has been pursuing you and wanting this relationship with you more than you did! There begins the adventure, with new vistas to be discovered of life in Him.

    A book to read, meditate on, apply and recommend to those who are longing to be “Living Beyond the Borders.”

    1. Thank you Charles for commenting. I love the thought that God lovingly pursues us. He wants us to hear that Good News. May we, as His people be among those who shout out the really Good News of His incredible, life giving love for people.

  2. “I have just spent an enjoyable hour reading this little book. I love the illustration of the framed watercolour. It brought home to me how we should never see our experience of God as being confined within the borders and the frame of a small picture. He longs constantly to bring us out into a much bigger place – a place where the picture is much larger as He gives us more and more revelation and experience of Himself and thus life beyond the borders. Isn’t it amazing that in His ongoing love He wants to draw us increasingly to where the picture can no longer be contained within a frame. This is because, like the illustration in the book, the landscape and His life spill out from under the painted border. I found that “Living beyond the borders” encouraged my desire to be continually finding and experiencing more of Jesus. “ – LH

    1. Thank you for taking the time to comment. It is truly our hearts desire for many to experience the expansive God who loves us so deeply and cares for us so well.

  3. John brings a practicality and realism to walking with God. By opening up and sharing his walk with the Lord he has penned a book that is both a guide and a detailed description of how to engage with a loving and caring God!

    1. Thank you Jono for taking the time to comment. It has been a wonderful process which I have enjoyed in so many ways. The ‘Story behind the Story’ gives some background of that process. Thanks again!

  4. As with any book, be it the Bible or otherwise, the crucial thing is the author and the author’s heart. John’s passion for Jesus overflows and his desire for us to know God, beyond the limitations of our own understanding, is plainly evident in this enlightening book. This is a challenge to me and to anyone on the God journey. There is always more ‘beyond the borders’ of our perceptions.

    1. Thank you Mark for taking the time to comment. It is true that Jesus has so much for each of us to enter into! May our hearts yearn for that as we take each step in walking in His will and purpose.

  5. This book is for everyone who longs to experience more of the reality of continually walking with God. The author shows that there is more to this Christian life, if we are willing to trust Him and allow Him to lead us into His plans and purposes.
    Well worth reading if you are willing to be challenged to break out of your comfort zones and complacency!

  6. Beyond the Borders shares a journey into the wonderful and exciting walk with Jesus. Our lives have been so structured and for comfort reasons made as predictable as possible. Living outside of the borders creates a level of unpredictability and that’s when the Lord can use us most effectively. It’s an exciting journey. I have known John for the better part of 30 years, and know that John’s sole purpose and heart is to encourage all who are desirous to want to experience more of Jesus to let go and trust Jesus wholeheartedly.
    Beyond the Borders reminds us that Jesus is calling us to live a life that is determined by Him and not based on our human standards and preconceived ideas. He constantly challenges us in our daily walk to remain fresh and aware of his presence as he continues to love us. An excellent read and I encourage anyone who is still living within the borders to venture beyond.
