Awakening the Sleeping Giant

About the Book

With global disasters lurking on the horizon, today's rapidly growing political and economical uncertainty has once again become the breeding ground of fear and depression. And while end-time prophesies are slowly unfolding, the Christian church finds herself surrounded by a society which is tossed around like a wave in an ocean of dramatic events and changes. In such a climate of negative predictions, the cry of our nations for real answers and a clear sense of direction has become an unprecedented opportunity for God's people. Is the Christian church able and prepared to meet the challenges that lie ahead? Are God's people ready and equipped for the great end-time harvest that is coming?

Reflecting the unquestionable need for personal revival and the revival of the church, this book takes an analytical and thought-provoking look at the individual Christian life and the Christian church in general. With an in depth, holistic approach, the author discusses a wide spectrum of fundamental issues: Why is the highly educated modern Christian church seemingly so powerless? What does it take to get onto the road of a church revival? Can the Christian church have the strength of a giant? What does the Bible have to say about the spiritual war and the end-time?

Founded on Biblical truths and spiced with a fresh, insightful look at the Christian life, this book challenges and encourages the reader to pursue a meaningful, intimate relationship with Jesus Christ.

About the Author

Mario Alleckna was born and raised in the western part of Germany, in the small town of Wegberg. In 1991 he followed God's call and moved to Canada. Being a passionate worshiper, he became involved as a musician in a local church and worship leader for special ministry events.

In the mid 90's the author, driven by an unquenchable thirst for the reality of God's truth, found himself confronted with the question: "Is there more to the Christian life than the regular church - and Bible study routine?" What followed was a three year period of deep searching and intimate time with Jesus. Finally, after receiving and writing down numerous revelations and nuggets of truth, he heard an inner voice saying, "put these together in a book".

Mario, his wife Pauline and their wonderful children have made their home in the city of Chilliwack in the south-western part of British Columbia.
