Most zombies aren't aware that they are zombies. David Pierce heard it first from his wife: ''You just seem dead,'' she told him. ''Checked out, lifeless . . . a zombie.'' David took this as a challenge. He had to kill the zombie and come back to life--he had to connect with people and his faith in ways he never had before.
TO KILL A ZOMBIE is a collection of stories where one man is intentional about connecting with his fellow human beings. David actively lives the commandments to love God and others. He goes to a star-gazing party at a local university, volunteers for Habitat for Humanity, engages in a conversation with a Los Angeles gang member, goes SCUBA diving with his ''fist full of men,'' and climbs a mountain with all new friends--all for the sake of feeling alive.
