Paperback. Sozo: What Am I Saved From? Challenges, one of the most familiar words in Christian language: saved.For generations, many believers have heard salvation explained almost entirely as being rescued from hell and promised heaven when they die. While eternal hope is precious, Scripture uses the language of salvation with far greater depth, breadth, and present power. The Greek word sozo is used throughout the New Testament to describe rescue, healing, deliverance, preservation, restoration, and being made whole. It does not flatten the work of God into a single religious slogan. It reveals the saving activity of God breaking into real human lives.In this carefully written and deeply reflective book, Kirkland M. Rite invites readers to look again at the Scriptures with fresh eyes. What did Jesus mean when He told the sick, the broken, the desperate, and the outcast that their faith had saved them? What were they saved from? Disease? Destruction? Shame? Demonic oppression? Fear? Sin? Death's grip? Religious bondage? The answer is often more immediate, embodied, and transformational than many have been taught to expect.This book does not diminish the eternal work of Christ. It magnifies the fullness of it. Salvation is not treated as a thin transaction that only matters after death, but as the living work of the Savior in the whole person-spirit, soul, and body. Jesus did not merely preach escape. He demonstrated the kingdom. His works bore witness to who He was. The blind saw. The lame walked. The oppressed were delivered. The broken were restored. The lost were recovered. The saving work of God was not hidden in theory; it appeared in bodies, homes, minds, families, and lives.Sozo: What Am I Saved From? carefully distinguishes between common theological assumptions and the actual language of Scripture. It examines how salvation, healing, deliverance, forgiveness, faith, kingdom, and redemption intersect without collapsing them into confusion. It calls readers beyond religious shorthand and into a fuller understanding of what the Savior saves from-and what He saves into.Written in the layered, thought-provoking style of Kirkland M. Rite, this book is for believers, teachers, ministers, students of Scripture, and anyone willing to ask whether the gospel they inherited has been made smaller than the gospel Jesus displayed.You were not merely saved for someday.You were saved by a living Savior whose work reaches into the present, restores what sin has damaged, and bears witness that the kingdom of God has come near. Salvation is more than a ticket to heaven. It's rescue, healing, and restoration for your life right now. Discover the true, present power of what it means to be saved.

The New Testament word sozo is most often translated as “saved,” yet its meaning extends far beyond what modern theology has typically conveyed.
It encompasses healing, deliverance, restoration, and wholeness—realities that unfold not only in eternity, but within the lived experience of believers.
In Sozo: What Am I Saved From?, Kirkland M. Rite invites readers to reexamine the biblical framework of salvation through a thoughtful and compelling exploration of Scripture. Moving beyond reductionist interpretations, this work presents salvation as a dynamic, present-tense reality that addresses the full scope of human brokenness.
Rather than asking only where salvation leads, this book considers a deeper and often overlooked question:
What are we being saved from—here and now?
This is a work for readers seeking clarity, depth, and a renewed understanding of one of the most foundational themes of the Christian faith.
