Overview

Setting the Captives FreeAfter suffering with suicidal thoughts and addictions for many years, Alfred Flett found himself back in the very church he'd attended as a child. Christianity wasn't practised in his home, but he was made to attend Sunday school, where he heard the life-changing words of John 3:16. But he eventually dropped out of Sunday school and never returned to church until he was an adult. The path he chose left him a broken young man, and life seemed hopeless. He tried self-help techniques like psychology and counselling, but nothing seemed to help. His need went beyond the physical and emotional. He was running away from his Creator who had made him for a purpose. Have you ever asked yourself: Why am I here? Who created me? What's my purpose? Alfred found the answer in the person of Jesus Christ. He filled the spiritual vacuum in his life, and He can do the same for you!

"""Like all too many Indigenous youth in Canada, Alfred M. Flett's formative years were scarred by discrimination, dysfunction, poverty, and alcoholism. Like all too few Canadian young adults, Alfred and Lynda Flett surrendered their lives and chains to the Lord Jesus and were launched on an amazing ministry journey to (but not limited to) Indigenous peoples across Canada and in many countries all around the world. One cannot spend time with the Fletts without being impressed by their compassion, integrity, and vision and be challenged to the core by their spiritual vitality and demanding ministry schedule. Breaking Chains is more than an inspiring true story-it's a powerful, biblically-grounded call to faith."" -Fred Fulford, B.Sc. MA, Professor Emeritus, Summit Pacific College ""Breaking Chains is a transparent story of how life can be transformed from despair to hope, from darkness to light, and from bondage to freedom. Alfred M. Flett has chosen to pour out the emotional dregs of the past to remind us all that in King Jesus, even the worst of situations can be rescued, and in the worst of heartache, Jesus can bring release and relief! You must pick up this book and read it today. It will not only inspire you, but it will show you how to go from victim to victor and from wounded to warrior through the transformative power of God's Son, Jesus of Nazareth. Real life. Real pain. Real gloom. They met the one who gives Life Eternal, who showers us with wholeness of the Soul, who is Light itself! Global missionary Alfred M. Flett has given us a path out of our prison and into God's palace in his new book, Breaking Chains! Isn't it time you allowed God to break your chains? Buy a copy for yourself and one for a friend and be released!"" -Dr. Matthew Lee Smith, Executive Director, Eagles in Leadership ""This is a must-read book of testimonies of Alfred M. Flett-I was reminded of the apostle Paul's conversion and the mandate Christ had set up for him recorded in Acts 9:15-16 (KJV), ""But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel: For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake."" For Alfred, it wasn't a religious persecution but a story of God's grace pulling an impoverished Indigenous person living in Winnipeg, Canada, out of bondage to sin, alcohol, and others forms of abuse and raising him up to reach the nations of the world for such a time as this. He is indeed a chosen, yielded vessel of God destined to walked in places of extremely harsh conditions to share the gospel of the Kingdom to the lost and dying. This is a message of hope to those with a desire to be used of God no matter what situation they're in. I admire both him and his wife, Lynda, for answering the call of God in their lives to reach the nations of the world and to witnessed revivals globally. Well done, and to God be the glory!"" -Raymond McLean, Lead Pastor of The Launching Place, Winnipeg, Manitoba ""Praise God for delivering us from the grave and being hope when it seemed there was no hope. I myself have been in dark despair until my beautiful Saviour opened the prison doors for me and set me free, truly free indeed. This is why this book will greatly encourage you to know that there is no one or no situation beyond the reach of the Saviour, Jesus Christ, No one. ""God has rescued us from the power of darkness and has brought us into the kingdom of his Son, whom he loves"" (Colossians 1:13, GW)."" -Charlene Thomas, B. Arts, LLB, Calvary Temple, Winnipeg, Board Member"
