The reality of the Christian life is that there is a constant battle for our affections; there are a multiplicity of ‘voices’ all demanding our attention, attempting to persuade us to make decisions that take us in one direc-tion or another. This short book from the 9Marks ‘First Steps’ series is written to help and encourage new Christians to listen first and foremost to their heavenly Father, in every area of life.
Andy Prime has a particular heart and concern for those who have recently come to Christ from a socially disadvantaged and unchurched background. Throughout the book he uses the story of Gary, a guy in his late thirties who’s grown up in a council estate in a broken family surrounded by alcoholism, gambling and drug addiction, who was saved through the witness of a good mate, and is now facing the daily battle of living the life of a Christian, which is radically different to the life he is used to.
