How do great books come about?

Well, from an inspired vision that takes incipient shape in a great book proposal. Enter my friend and colleague, Gary Neal Hansen. Gary's vision for a book on Christian community has been selected by Chad R. Allen of Baker Academic to be the focus of his blog-based coaching into a winning book proposal. I've mentioned Gary's work here before, and his popular book on prayer entitled, Kneeling with Giants. Well done, Gary. It looks like we have another major contribution in the making.
