Product Description
Since 2000, John Weaver has been A Flame on the Front Line sharing God's love in Afghanistan. He serves as a Team Leader for Shelter Now, which has been helping Afghans for over 25 years. John is the happy husband of Jeanne, whom he met and married in Afghanistan. "I saw John Weaver for the first time in October 2001 on ABC World News Tonight with Peter Jennings. When John's face appeared on the screen, I knew there was something special about him. I could see it in his eyes, his smile, and his interaction with the Afghan people." - Franklin Graham, President of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan's Purse. Journey from America to Afghanistan is an invitation to step into an incredible adventure led by the Sovereign King. The voyage features views of earthly struggles and saving grace; painful experiences and purposeful excursions; disappointing failures and dreams fulfilled. It also explores aspects of life in the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan. This inspiring story is both enjoyable and unforgettable. Join us inside... John and Jeanne Weaver, with their three sons, live and work as a family of flames. You can contact them at hope4afg@dxpost.com. Proceeds from this book support the work of Shelter Now Afghanistan.

 | SHINING IN THE DARK Nov 28, 2009 |
| How might your past, with its quirky unpredictability, failures, disappointments, and seeming randomness, serve well as the solid road to your future? It is a question that John Weaver answers again and again in this simple, straightforward biographical journey. As readers, we are not only witness to how his history has been weaved together into a rich and beautiful life. We are also challenged to consider how our own less-this-ideal experiences, in the hands of a compassionate, creative, and redemptive God, could open us to a life of hope and purpose beyond what we might be able to even fathom. Is this a tidy "happily-ever-after" with a bow on top? No. This is a story of believing that God makes beauty from brokenness and choosing to live in that truth. | | | | Excellent Read!!! Nov 9, 2009 |
| What an inspiring story! John Weaver is an excellent author. His book was very easy to read, and kept you wanting more. I was amazed at John's story and how throughout his whole journey to Afghanistan he has been "A Flame on the Front Line." I would highly reccommend this book, and can't wait for the next one to come out. | | | | A life well spent Oct 30, 2009 |
John Weaver writes a homey, open hearted account of his life from his difficult family beginnings to a sold out life for the Lord Jesus Christ. His passion throughout is compelling. He recounts details of his youth, his pranks and unhealthy behavior and tells of the pain when his parents divorced. He writes of the pathway to wholeness and the healing of his family and relationships. Today John is a sold out man of God, still passionate but in a healthy way, with purpose and without bitterness of his past. John Weaver's life is a wonderful example of the changing grace of God in one life and of the body of Christ coming alongside one another to heal and to help. His is a life well lived. I'd highly recommend it. You'll be encouraged!

| My wife gifted me the book on my birthday & I could not put it down. Wow what a transformation. I thank God that your high school fiend that took you to the Billy Gram outreach, what a blessing to the people in C.A. makes me want to follow the calling that God has for me. Thank you for serving. | | |  | Description of An Awesome Life Totally Submitted to Jesus Christ! Oct 12, 2009 |
The book clearly describes the transformational change of John Weaver from a highly mischievous and troublesome childhood in Virginia / North Carolina to a current position as a stable, God fearing, husband, father and humanitarian leader in the remote areas of Afghanistan. It is clear from "A Flame on the Front Line" that the flame was the spirit inside John's heart; the spirit of Jesus Christ.
The story teaches us that no matter what our past life choices are, the God of the Bible is a loving and merciful God and He wants us to return to Him so that we can be more like Him. John Weaver demonstrates through his extraordinary, God directed life, how a "flame" is developed by God and is utilized effectively with the poor, the downtrodden in the US, Afghanistan, or wherever "the front line" is where God has called one to serve Him.
Again, the story of John Weaver's life is an encouraging example to the world and it encourages me to want to be "A Flame on the Front Line". It is a beautiful story and a beautiful testimony of what Jesus Christ can do powerfully in one's life, if one is fully surrendered and devoted to the Savior of the World! | | | Write your own review about A Flame on the Front Line
