Chicago, Illinois,USA – August 24, 2012 - Recently, the international community rallied around Iranian Pastor, Yousef Naderkhani who was facing execution because of his Christian faith. It appears another case of discrimination against a Christian Pastor is ongoing – this time in Kiev, Ukraine.
On Tuesday, August 28, 2012, Sunday Adelaja, an African immigrant in Ukraine, who founded and leads what is considered the largest Evangelical church in Europe, has been asked to report to the police base to be detained without trials over unproven allegations of leading a criminal ring in Kiev. In a case that has been under investigation for four years without any evidence to support the allegations, many around the world believe these allegations are false and are motivated by racial and religious discrimination.
In August 2011, I had a marathon interview in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, with Pastor Sunday Adelaja, the Nigerian-born founder and senior pastor of the Embassy of God Church in Ukraine about his pace-setting ministry, his perennial ordeal at the hands of the Ukrainian government and the local Orthodox Church.

Pastor Sunday Adelaja has used his faith to do so much more than what has become the "norm" here in the United States! In a time where we are constantly bombarded with messages about how faith can lead to material wealth and larger congregations, Pastor Adelaja is sharing how faith has helped him to change a nation! This book revolutionized my thinking. I was already kingdom-focused, but this book took my level of understanding to new heights. It confirmed that what God wants from us is selfless, purposeful service OUTSIDE of the physical church. His Kingdom has already come...are we serving? Excellent book. Truly life-changing.

Change is needed in this world. If the Church wants to see the change, The Church needs to change. Church Shift is a great book to help people think out side the box.

This book is captivating. It tells you the story of transforming a nation while interweaving the principles, phylosophies and actions that enabled this man and his church to have such a large impact and a nation and now continents.
If you are tired of doing "housekeeping church" and want to move towards a New Testament, Kingdom bringing, cultural changing movement, then this is the book for you. If you want to grow your church into a big box consumer driven ministry, then this is a dangerous book to read and you won't like it.
Read at your own risk.

I have known Pastor Sunday since 1990 to be a man that is persistent with his message. He is a man who stands solely on the integrity of the Word of God. He does not speak except God tells him to. Many have written so many books before, and people often buy and read those books; without looking at the integrity of the writer. Pastor Sunday has been tested many times, and he has passed the tests. I believe God has a message for the body of Christ through this book. CHURCHSHIFT is a buy that any serious minded Pastor will introduce and use in 'feeding the sheep'.
Beloved every child of God has a vision and a mission. Every child of God will also have to go through the Wilderness. The wilderness is a place of trials and a place of difficulty. It is a time where everything seems to be getting worse.
