We recite the sinner's prayer and give our lives to Jesus but when the church service ends, when the music stops and the lights go off we still have to go home to our realities. We wake up the next day and expect everything to have disappeared. We imagine that because the prison doors have been flung open, our life sentence revoked, our list of offenses blotted out, that we will find ourselves automatically in a different place in our lives. Our chains have been broken but we have to take steps daily out of the prison - that becomes the beginning of a lifelong journey. A journey that only ends when we eventually one day enter the gates of heaven and come face to face with our precious Savior to dwell with him forever." How do we react to He who sets us free? How do we react to what He already did on the cross for us? Chain Reaction is a follow up book of Project Cross: Lessons From Living For Self To Living For Christ and deals with the different stages and seasons we go through as Christians right from the second we finish the prayer of repentance. With Biblical reference, Chain Reaction explains the repercussions of the disease that is sin, the cure that came on the cross and the freedom as a result thereof. Chain Reaction offers practical tips on how to press on in a new relationship with Christ and covers some of the mental ,spiritual, social and emotional struggles that come with a new life in Christ that we are often plagued with. With personal testimonies and 'prison' tales, Maria Mmari vulnerably and authentically throughout stays true to the central theme of chains, imprisonment and uses this as an allegory for the spiritual life and how we react to the newfound freedom in Christ.
