No Maranatha Without Mission: Rekindling the Bride's Cry and Finishing the Task

No Maranatha Without Mission: Rekindling the Bride's Cry and Finishing the Task is a prophetic call to the Church to recover her first love and her true mission. The early believers lived with a passionate expectation for the return of their Lord. Their prayer, "Maranatha-Come, Lord Jesus," was not a ritual but the heartbeat of a bride longing for her Groom. Yet they also knew that Christ's return is tied to the fulfillment of His Great Commission: making disciples of all nations.

In this book, Onesmas Murithi challenges the modern Church to return to this dual posture-deep intimacy with Christ and bold obedience to His mission. He warns that a church that prays "Come, Lord Jesus" without actively reaching the lost is like a bride who has lost her love. Love for the Groom must always overflow into love for the people He died for.

Through biblical teaching, real-life testimonies, and practical guides, Murithi outlines how believers can rekindle the Maranatha cry within the simplicity of house churches, while remaining outward-focused on discipling the nations. Each chapter includes reflection questions for small groups, making the book ideal for discipleship circles, house church gatherings, and mission-focused fellowships.

This book will help you:

• Rediscover the passionate cry of the Bride of Christ.
• Understand why mission and Maranatha cannot be separated.
• Learn practical steps to start and sustain vibrant house churches.
• Integrate outreach and discipleship into everyday life.
• Cultivate a lifestyle of expectancy and obedience as we await Christ's return.

No Maranatha Without Mission is both a stirring wake-up call and a practical handbook for believers who want to be found faithful-burning with love for Jesus and busy with His work until He comes.
