'In the last century, there has been so much emphasis in the church onbecoming Christ-like, which of course, is the ultimate goal of discipleship.The problem is that we've redefined who Jesus is and how He ministered. Weseem to have lost sight of the fact that the Person we are called to emulate was a counterculture revolutionary who walked in supernatural power. He lived, died, and rose again to deliver an ailing planet from the power of the devil and to extend the Superior Kingdom into every corner of the planet.'In this powerful book, Peter McHugh unearths the real meaning of thenormal Christian life and teaches us how to walk in our divine mandate as world changers and history makers.

The world sends out a clear and pervasive message - strive, do well, don't fail. A performance based culture with its attendant fears and insecurities can distort our view God and sabotage our relationship with Him, ourselves and others. With at times excruciating levels of honesty and vulnerability, Peter McHugh exposes the lies that had taken hold in his own life.

Thoughts, ideas and beliefs that did not conform to God's word, to Hisview of me, and my view of Him. This was to be a profound part of my voyageof mercy and it has changed me deeply.'The book is about Peter's own journey, but his frank reflections and assessmentstake the reader to a place where they may begin their own voyage of mercy.

They are arguably the most critical issues to be addressed currently within Western Christianity.Keith FarmerFormer Principal of Australian College of MinistriesMay this book be the final nail in the coffin of religion that has brutally restrained the people of God from stepping into our purpose in God.Bill JohnsonBethel Church, California, USAThe insights he offers have the potential to bring freedom to whoever reads, helping us all to find the fullness of life that is available to us in Christ.Mark ConnerSenior Minister, CityLife Church, Knox, Melbourne, AustraliaPeter is a university graduate with a qualification in Social Work.
