“Phil Cooke lives and breathes relevance; he is like the lead explorer who goes ahead of the pack sees what is ahead and then he calls out to the rest to follow. In this book he does just that: he speaks to everyone who seeks to be relevant to a constantly changing culture and says this is the road to effectiveness in communicating the truth. Read it, you will be challenged and provoked to explore new possibilities”

—MICHAEL YOUSSEF PHD, HOST OF THE

GLOBAL MEDIA PROGRAM LEADING THE WAY.

“The only way to hit a moving target (and Phil Cooke shows just how fast-moving this culture is) is to get ahead of it. If you’re tired of playing the game of either catch-up or put-down, Jolt! is for you. It’s the best book out there on how to move from carpe diem to carpe mañana.”

—LEONARD SWEET, BEST-SELLING AUTHOR AND PROFESSOR

 (DREW UNIVERSITY, GEORGE FOX UNIVERSITY)

“Phil Cooke is on the cutting edge, bringing to the body of Christ new ideas and strategies for proclaiming the gospel. He has successfully guided hundreds of churches and ministries into this brave new world of marketing and technology. The message of the gospel never changes, but the way it’s proclaimed should!”

—PAUL CROUCH JR., CHIEF OF STAFF, TRINITY BROADCASTING NETWORK

“Jolt! is like a slap in the face that causes you to pause and reflect on how we have become entrapped by “disruptive” technologies. It lays out a coherent plan to aid you in overcoming these distractions and to achieve success in your personal life as well as your career. This book is a road map to regain your freedom: physically, emotionally, and spiritually.”

—ARTHUR ANDERSON, PRODUCER, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE III

“Phil Cooke is one of today’s most sensitive, sensible, and savvy men I know in the arena of media communications and production. His grasp of how to capture the attention of the public or a specific audience as well as to assist ready observers, readers, or listeners with resources will make them glad they tuned in to his message.”

—JACK W. HAYFORD, CHANCELLOR AND FOUNDER, THE

KING’S UNIVERSITY, LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA

“It will wake you up . . . with a Jolt! Phil surveys the disrupted landscape and then finds a number of important minor and major ways to cope with life in the age of “tap and watch and react.” Addressing our challenges with personal importance, growth, and power, Phil shows how many problems can be made worse through our best efforts. Without the biblical notions of trust, forgiveness, and good thinking, we will miss the blessings of progress in communications and just bog down in a narcissistic social networking.”

— ANDREW J. PETERSON, PRESIDENT, REFORMED

THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY, VIRTUAL CAMPUS, CHARLOTTE, NC

“Don’t miss Jolt. It’s jam-packed with practical wisdom for today’s fast-changing world. Phil Cooke is a modern-day Solomon.”

—MICHAEL LEE STALLARD, PRESIDENT, E PLURIBUS
