In the News ... "Annual prayer breakfast to feature author, attorney Bob Goff"

MIDLAND, TEXAS - In the back of his 2012 New York Times best-selling book, “Love Does,” author Bob Goff included his personal cell phone number.

Since then, his phone’s been ringing off the hook. But Goff, an attorney, author, speaker and founder of the nonprofit Restore International, said he doesn’t mind.

“One of the things we can be is ‘available,’” he said. “People — they don’t follow vision as much as they follow availability. What if you and I are the most available people in the world? It’s a crazy, backward way of thinking about things, but that’s what Jesus did all the time.”

Goff will speak at the Midland Prayer Breakfast at 7 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 19 at the Midland Center, 105 N. Main St. Tickets are $7 and can be purchased by contacting Henry Musselman at 686-6003. Table sponsorships are $500 for a table of eight and $250 for half of a table. Tickets are also sold at various churches around Midland; for a complete list, visit www.npbmidland.org .
