    In a world where the lines between right and wrong are becoming more and more blurred, where wrong has become right and right has become wrong, it is time for courage and boldness. It is far easier to let someone else take the risk, but I think we are all called to say to the Lord, “Here I am, send me.” This book is about exactly that.

    Looking For The One reminds us that the way to change the world is to start with one person at a time. But before looking for the one, we look to Jesus. Because Jesus is the only one who can change us and heal us, we go to Him first. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life!

    How amazing is it to personally know Jesus and be able to share with others who are hurting, lost, and discouraged that they too can have a close relationship with the Savior who will never leave them or forsake them? Looking For The One is an inspiring book of true stories of lives that have been changed forever through the faithfulness of David McIver. His passion to find those in need and share Christ is evident and I believe this book will inspire many to do the same!

    I felt inspired and challenged after reading David’s book. Encounter after encounter, he walks you through conversations that lead to lives being changed. I am thankful to call David a friend. You will enjoy his storytelling but it’s his practical application of sharing the gospel that we can all learn from.

    David McIver’s Looking for the One makes helping someone be in heaven so doable! He takes sharing Christ out of the clouds and embeds it in in our “everyday”— auto repairs, recreation, banana bread, little emergencies, eating out. These stories of real people sharing and encountering Jesus in real life are inspiring and emboldening— and just plain heartwarming. This book shows us a lifestyle that makes our high-stakes “Mission Impossible” into “Mission Possible.” And makes your “everyday” into something that will matter forever. It’s the “more” you’ve been restless for, as you join your Jesus in Looking for the One.

    I was fortunate to have Dave as my in-season pastor while playing for the Twins, and I have heard some of these amazing stories already! I was excited to hear he was writing this book about Looking for the One because I knew it would be filled with sound Bible teaching, contain applicable ways to grow in your faith, and help you find ways to bring up Jesus more in your everyday conversations. Dave is always trying to live out the verses in Luke 15 about leaving the 99 to find THE ONE, and I know you will enjoy reading about some of those people that have encountered Jesus because Dave said yes to this mission!

    Looking for the One is an amazing book. My friend, David McIver, has the unique gift of finding The One, that person God brings in his life who needs to meet Jesus. You’ll be inspired by God’s appointments. And you’ll be moved by David’s ability and availability to get right down to that one person’s need. And you will be motivated yourself to be aware of the One that God brings to you each day. What a difference it would be in the world and in the church if we each were Looking for the One.

    One spring training in Fort Myers, Florida, my friend, Dave, helped change my prayer life. I constantly prayed for EVERYONE to know, love, and follow Jesus. He encouraged me to pray for “THE ONE” each day. I quickly began to see how powerful that is and how focused it makes you in finding “THE ONE” each day that Jesus is leading you towards to share the gospel. As Jesus said in Luke 15:10, “I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Amazing!

    Every page of Looking for the One reflects David McIver’s deep love for Jesus, his trust in Holy Spirit to lead him to the lost and lonely, and his desire to share a faith that transforms lives. The day David changed his prayers and asked Jesus what was on His heart, he started receiving waves of personal revelation that empowered him to reach out to the people he encountered every day. Looking for the One is not merely a collection of inspirational stories, but a practical guide for you to change how you share your faith. Leading questions, equipping tools, and reflection prompts will encourage you to apply the principles David shares. This book will encourage you to listen more closely to Holy Spirit’s promptings and to be obedient to His instructions. As you start seeing the life-changing results of your prayers, you too will be motivated to look for ‘the one’ who needs to experience the love and forgiveness of the Lord. Just ask Jesus who is on His heart? Like David, you will discover that it is a simple prayer, but it will change your life.
