Product Description
Christopher Alam’s life and ministry have been filled with one adventure and miraculous event after another. Out of Islam traces the adventures of Alam as a young Pakistani convert to Christianity from a traditional Muslim family to his emergent worldwide evangelistic and healing ministry. With his father being a devout Muslim and lifelong military officer who once trained fighters alongside Osama bin Laden, and his mother an India-born performing artist, Alam knew a privileged life that few experience.

After Alam’s conversion, his father had him arrested and sought to have him beheaded for betraying the family faith. Through a series of miraculous events, Alam ultimately escaped to Sweden, where he met and married his wife, Britta. Together they have launched their ministry, which has been praised by evangelist Reinhard Bonnke, the late Kenneth e. Hagin, and Ray McCauley. Alam has preached in more than sixty nations, with millions making first time decisions for Christ and hundreds of new churches started. This book will encourage the hearts of readers to rise above hardships and move into the supernatural manifestations of the Holy Spirit, while offering faith lessons for evangelists.

Reader Reviews
Years ago, D L Moody overheard the famous quote, "The world has yet to see what God will do with a man who is fully and wholly consecrated to the Holy Spirit." Christopher Alam may be such a man, and his book "Out of Islam" stands as one of the Church's strongest testimonies. It's a testimony of a life covered by Jesus' blood, and committed in life to the death, which overcomes the evil one, (Rev 12:11). My heart is still stirred by one quote, where Alam writes, "There is no material thing valuable enough to live for, and I decided to turn my back to all that this world has to offer. Nobody could prevent me from preaching the gospel of Jesus. I had everything to gain and nothing to lose." His life story is a thrilling account of what God can and will do in the life of a man who is yielded to Him. In our day of unbelief and disbelief, "Out of Islam" is a strong reminder that God has not changed, His purposes remain, and what He has said in His Word He will do. If you are tired of powerless living, Christ-less Christianity, and leading a life that bears no resemblance to what you read in the Bible, I would encourage you to spend a few hours with this good book. It will encourage your heart and renew your passion. For many, it will be a "word in season" that the same God who brought down the Berlin wall can certainly tear through the Muslim curtain. The work of missions begins in the work of the heart, and "Out of Islam" describes how God took a young man and changed Him for His glory into a powerful man of God. It is full of many examples of miracles and deliverance, and throughout there is some wonderful teaching, but what caught my attention more than anything else was Alam's strong emphasis and declaration in saying, "Missing the mark doctrinally reveals a lack of knowledge, but pride and arrogance reveal something more serious -- a lack of character." For me, this book breathed the breath of God, and beat with the pulse of His heart. How God can use one man, save him, change him, teach and train him, and then thrust him into a world wide ministry is enough to wake anyone up from their lethargy, and to realize that more can be done for Jesus sake. I heartily recommend it.
