Radical Lives is a compilation of 15 dramatic true-life stories Janet originally wrote as articles for Christian Life News Magazine. From her own experience of a life without God, she can understand the miraculous and radical transformation that takes place when a person surrenders to God and is freed by the saving grace and power of Jesus Christ.
The stories profile former criminals, drug addicts, dealers, alcoholics, terrorists, gang members, social outcasts, and church dropouts. For some, their conversion was immediate, for others it was gradual.
The exciting part for me was not only reading about lives radically transformed by God, but the evidence given to show that most of these people have since put their faith into action by establishing or being involved in Christian ministries. In some cases they've written books to share their testimonies and reach out to others lost in spiritual darkness. Contact details are listed at the end of each profile.
This book is ideal to pass onto people who are struggling with life. Janet suggests concerned Christians could sponsor her book and make copies available free in strategic places such as rehabilitation centres and prisons.
With many more stories to tell, Radical Lives Vol 2 is on its way. - by Julia Martin, The Christian Writer magazine

They immediately experienced revival and signs and wonders which saw the Church grow with new converts from a morning attendance of 31 to 500 within four years. Today the Church is making a powerful spiritual, social, cultural and economic kingdom impact in their city. Since then House of Breakthrough has sent out dozens of healing ministries and cultural ministries throughout the nation and the world as well as plant Churches in NZ and India. Pastor Norm came from a radical background of motorcycles, drugs alcohol and violence and martial arts. When he encountered Christ his radical personality carried on over into the Kingdom. He was born again and trained in the power of the supernatural presence of Christ and continually sees Christ perform miracles, signs and wonders that turn people to Christ in their thousands on the local, national and international fields of service. He is gifted to help awaken empower and deploy Gods people to minister in the character and supernatural power of God.
