Ex-Muslim by Naeem Fazal

I should first start off by saying I read this book in less than 24 hours time. Not that I had that much spare time, but once I started, I couldn't put it down! Living in the same city as the church Fazal pastors, I was familiar with him and some of his story so I was eager to read this book. Pastor Fazal has a writing style that is easy to read and comprehend and a story that is powerful and a testimony to God's relentless pursuit of us, no matter our background. 

In "Ex-Muslim," Pastor Fazal details his journey to faith in Christ thought what most would deem unusual circumstances. His description of demonic encounters reveal how someone raised in a completely different faith can come to personally experience the power in the name of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. I enjoyed reading his story and was encouraged by his audacious faith to surrender his life completely to Christ and the path chosen for him. I enjoyed that the focus was on Fazal's story, but not primarily about how to witness to those of other faiths. I did receive a powerful reminder of how the greatest witness opportunities we have are through the way we live our lives daily. There are people around us who are watching every move we make and listening to every word we say. To quote Fazal, "If people don't see the teachings of Jesus lived out in us, they won't want to listen to a word we have to say about Him." 

I highly recommend this selection! I promise you won't be disappointed and will be challenged in your personal walk with Christ.
