Warfare by Tony Evans


The type of warfare addressed in this book is spiritual. Dr. Tony Evans makes the point that everything we do in the physical and visible realm is caused, provoked or influenced by something in the invisible spiritual realm.  Until we understand and deal with the spiritual root of a problem or issue in our lives, we will not be able to correct and fix the physical or visible effects of that problem. The battle is about Glory. The glory that is rightfully due to God, is what Satan wants for himself.

The book’s chapters include topics about the battle, Satan’s character and strategy, knowing our spiritual allies, our weapons and winning the battle. The book informs and instructs readers about  the basics of spiritual warfare and ways to battle back. The important thing to remember in spiritual battles is that Christians need to claim the victory that God has already won.

The book is very informative and helpful in understanding the supernatural battlefield. I received this book from Moody Publishers in exchange for this honest review.

The Church in Babylon Study Guide by Erwin Lutzer


This study guide is a great accompaniment to the book, “The Church in Babylon.” Following the example of Daniel and the Jews living in Babylon, this guide will help to practically apply the principles illustrated in the book to engage our culture without being harmed spiritually by it. The topics discussed will encourage Christians to shine the light of Christ in a world which is increasingly dark.  The study guide is divided into 10 sections which follow the chapters of the book.  Each section is divided into three parts: a summary of the chapter from the book, questions for discussion and an encouragement to pray.

This would be a great tool to use in a small group setting and would help to guide thoughtful and meaningful discussions.  I received this book from Moody Publishers in exchange for this honest review.
