Spiritual Warfare 101

The Bible is clear: if you are a Christian, you are at war. But our approach to spiritual warfare usually falls into one of two extremes--either we place an undue emphasis on Satan and his powers, or we completely ignore the existence of a personal enemy.The Invisible War offers believers a balanced look at what the Bible says on the subject.

Based on Paul's teaching in Ephesians 6, this book shows every believer what we need to know about Satan, demons, and spiritual warfare. Find out how to

prepare yourself for spiritual battle
cultivate invincible faith
