LONGWOOD, FL-Entertaining angels unaware, this was the exciting premise of the popular television program "Touched by an Angel". Are we being watched? We've all heard, at one time or another, the idea that everyone has a guardian angel. Fallen angels have an impact on our lives, and so do God's holy angels. Perhaps we play a significant role as well! In The Angels are Watching, a new book from Xulon Press, readers will learn that everything they do and say is on display. Angels are watching as our lives unfold. Every moment of life has significance because it is an object lesson to the angels. Sound a little mysterious? How might it affect the church? This is a must-read for Christian leaders.
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us." (Hebrews 12:1)
Author Aaron Taylor notes that one of God's primary purposes is to teach the angels. "A major point of this book is to help Christians evaluate priorities in their lives, based on unseen realities." Taylor writes in his new book, The Angels are Watching, How God Uses Your Life to Teach the Angels (September, $9.99, 1-59781-478-4). Designed to help Christians focus on the big picture, Taylor's book encourages readers to discover the significance of everyday life that even the little things matter. Once you see life from a new point of view, your trials and tribulations are put into perspective. Our lives are meant to reveal the character of God. Leaders and pastors will be inspired to challenge their flock towards the highest priority of all, the call to spread the "good news." There can be no greater emphasis than that of the Great Commission. Taylor also argues the case for why Christians should support native missionaries overseas.
"I believe in Aaron and know that any endeavor he embarks on will be done with excellence and that he will raise up leaders who will continue to run with the vision he has planted in their hearts."
Jack Harris
President, Global Messenger Service

"As a pastor, I have seen Aaron and Rhiannon's love for the kingdom. We have prayed together, served together and had fun together! They are true Christians with a heart to reach others for Christ."
Pastor Shawn Craig (St. Louis, MO)
Aaron D. Taylor is a passionate evangelist and the founder of a dynamic missionary organization called the Great Commission Society. The Great Commission Society is an organization dedicated to mobilizing people in the body of Christ to evangelize their friends and neighbors as well as unreached people groups. This is accomplished through GCS chapters, biblically centered task-oriented communities dedicated to reaching out locally and internationally. Through a format of fellowship, testimony, and prayer, GCS chapters serve as a bridge between the lost and local churches. Native Evangelist Sponsorship program chapters sponsor and equip native evangelists to plant churches where none yet exist. Aaron and his wife, Rhiannon have lived on the mission field in West Africa. The couple has traveled extensively, ministering to pastors in several nations, speaking at various conferences, attending Christ for the Nations, and bringing bibles and other materials into closed countries.
