Some people have asked my why I have created a new website at www.beaucrosetto.com. I explain my reasoning here in this 3min video.

Evangelism Must Be Tied To The Prophetic
evangelists and prophets may be very different, but they need each other.
By Beau Crosetto
Evangelism not tied to the prophetic is either watered down or annoying.
Last week Alan Hirsch gave me this insight as I took issue with his newest book.
3 Things Every Seeking Person Needs
By Beau Crosetto
I did not grow up in a religious home, never went to church growing up, and wasn’t really that interested in God – I never thought about him.
But then one day in high school a few of my buddies (the same ones I would smoke pot with occasionally) struck up a conversation about the end times and we started talking about if it was real or not. I had no idea. But something inside of me was pretty sure it was real and that the end times would come. It was just one of those things that you kind of deep down believed but you don’t know why.
The Crocodile Who Didn’t Like Water
By Beau Crosetto
I was reading this new book with my kids and I couldn’t stop laughing as I saw the similarities to this “crocodile” and APE leaders.
SPOLIER ALERT: for those who plan to read this on your next vacation 🙂
Standing With A Prophet: Stand With The Victims
By Beau Crosetto
Prophets always die.
They come against majority culture with correction and when you anger the majority culture, you will die…Biblically in a literal sense and today in America in reputation and standing.
Today Zach Hoag has been going off on twitter about the recent conviction of the youth pastor of Covenant Life Church in Maryland for the repeated sexual abuse of three minors (keep reading for details).

And his prophetic word is not being received and some people are starting to anger.

Wind Opens Doors
By Beau Crosetto
Yesterday after a full day of meetings I stopped by the beach to do a walk and prayer time. The wind was blowing incredibly hard for Southern California – it was hard to walk and ocean water was spraying up onto the walkway.
As I was walking, I heard God say to me, “Beau, I am so much more powerful than the strongest wind.”
It caught me off guard and I began to think about the Holy Spirit as wind.
The Invisible Work of God
The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast…
By Beau Crosetto
Keep Witnessing – Keep Leaning In – God is working.
Just yesterday while I was driving with my neighbor to go play volleyball, he opened up to me again and said,
“Beau, three different times I almost called you from work to tell you ‘Ok, I am ready to have the talk.’”
He continued on to tell me that he knows he needs God in his life but he is just being too prideful. He assured me that we are going to have the talk soon.

ReThinking Witness: Creating a Culture for Discipling Skeptics
A blog post about James & my new ebook was written last week highlight a section of our book. If you would like to read an excerpt before downloading, now is your chance.
When it comes to discipling skeptics and seekers, we’ve found that it’s easier for believers to get involved in evangelism when you have an evangelistic community that supports their endeavors. Not only that, they’ll also be more effective. To do that, you need to address the culture of your faith community. How would you change a church culture so that it supported discipling of skeptics and seekers? Here’s a summary of five (download our new eBook, Discipling Skeptics and Seekers,for the full text) of six rhythms that can help:
