In Living Above, Francis Boafo reveals the things that stifle God's fullness in His people. Having experienced many difficulties, spiritual warfare, and triumphs himself, he has penned this book to show how it is possible to experience kingdom life in this world, in the face of all that life throws at us.
Our salvation puts us in the Lion of Judah, and His Spirit resides inside us. We must not fail in our quest to reach the top of our God ordained spiritual mountains of glory. Francis declares in this book that we are created in Christ not to live defeated lives. How true! This is a very powerful read for all Christians who desire to live as champions in today's world through the power of the Holy Spirit.

I am so fortunate to have bumped into Mr. Boafo at the Barnes and Noble store in Dallas where he was completing a book signing for this book. At the time, I was looking for something to help me focus on Christianity and living a Christian lifestyle everyday. This book helped my understanding of life principals established in the Bible and gave so many examples of how to put them into practice daily. Mr. Boafo has very clearly thoroughly studied and thought deeply about the Word of God and I believe that there was some divine intervention in the writing of this book. Needless to say, I have put in an order for his first book, which I have not yet read "Awaken to Your New Creation".

Francis Boafo is an outstanding author and a man full of integrity. His books are useful to everyone in the Christian spectrum. I belive the Lord is using him to bridge denominational gaps through the heart of love that he writes with. I would not take lightly anything he says. He walks the walk and dares to share the experience with others. I hope you let him inspire you to do the same

In his book, "Living Above", Francis Boafo gets to the heart of the difficulties today's Christians face in maintaining a balanced and effective walk with the Lord. He exposes not only the traps we frequently are confronted with, but the reasons why Christians so often fall victim to those traps. In confronting this issue head on Mr. Boafo teaches the reader to recognize the traps, avoid them and begin living a victorious life in Christ. You will come away armed with valuable spiritual principles, weapons, if you will, that will help you begin "Living Above".
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. It it a great tool for Christian living and I am pleased to not only have it in my personal library but to recommend it, wholeheartedly, to you!

I purchased a copy of Francis Boafo's new book: "Living Above", as soon as it was available, but had not started reading it yet. After a good time of prayer this morning I picked up the book and began to read. I was overwhelmed as God began to speak to me out of the pages of Francis's book! His writing is truly inspired of God. If you are going through a trial, or just want to hear a fresh word from God, I highly recommend reading "Living Above"!

This book - with the perfect title- is completely packed with nuggets of truths that we all need to live above life's circumstances and the sin in the world which we live. One thing we all have in common is that life holds many different seasons for each of us. Good or bad, it is not always easy to transition and this book shows how to live victoriously, while learning and growing in God through our Lord Jesus Christ. There are lessons throughout the book which I found extremely valuable. If you can think of anything that you need to be knowledgeable of in your walk, then it is in this book!
