Preface

Summary

In the preface Rod and Jake talk about their friendship and purposes for writing the book.  For them, conversation is an important part of friendship and they suggest reading the book with someone else - an old friend, a new friend, or a group of people who are friends in the making.  While writing the book, Rod was in the process of dying from cancer and the preface includes an excerpt from one of his sermons where he reflects on both his own brokenness and the brokenness of the church.
