» Frequently Asked Questions

1. Who is this book for?
It’s for any student (or student aged person) or faculty who wants to be challenged to live for Christ in some radical ways.

2. What’s up with the title?
Absolutely nothing. It’s totally random. Some think it’s a spoof, but not really. We’re just trying to have some fun. Is that ok?

3. Why two covers?
Neither cover has anything at all to do with the title or purpose of the book. We just thought they were cool covers. So, it’s obvious wer’re confused. But you benefit. Americans like choice. So, choose away!

4. Why not share your real name?
I don’t think students like “self-promotion”, do you? I have enough pride without putting my name on the book. Besides, what if you don’t like the book? I don’t feel I could handle the rejection! A little mystery never hurt anyone, right?

5. Why is everything in lists?
It’s a real problem. I can’t seem to write anything without putting it in a list. Maybe I’m addicted, I don’t know. It’s weird, because I’m a fairly disorganized person.

6. Do you have any real experience with college students?
Besides the six years it took me to get my college degree I have been involved in college ministry for almost 30 years. I have several college age kids of my own and have had students living with us for over 20 years.

7. Are you really giving away all the profits?
Every bit of profit is going to mission efforts to take the gospel around the world. I promise I will not pocket one penny. So, thanks for buying this book. You are investing in the Great Commission. Spread the word!

8. Are you an idiot?
Not totally. My understanding is I was a moron when my college age sons were in high school. But it is amazing how my IQ has gone up since the guys entered college. Not sure what happened, but all of a sudden I went from uncool to cool in less than 24 months.

9. Do you have any other thoughts?

No.

10. Was this a list?
Yeah. I couldn’t help it.
