A Woman's Guide To Spiritual Warfare


A Woman's Guide To Spiritual Warfare: How To Protect Your Home, Family And Friends From Spiritual Darkness by Quin Sherrer and Ruthanne Garlock is a Christian classic, selling over 300,000 copies. It was originally written in 1991, but now, 26 years later, it's been completely revised and updated and given a beautiful new cover. The back cover says:

"Groundbreaking Spiritual Warfare Book for Women, Now Revised and Updated

Women everywhere face battles that threaten to overwhelm them.

A friend's depression. A child's destructive choices. A neighbor's broken marriage. A husband's failed business. A bad medical report. But you don't have to watch hopelessly from the sidelines. This is a crucial time for praying women to take their stand.

In this newly revised and updated edition, you'll discover sound biblical guidelines, inspiring stories, and practical steps to help you see victory on the battlefront. As you understand your authority in the risen Christ, you will learn how to overcome forces of evil, help loved ones break cycles of bondage, and make your home a place of refuge from spiritual attack--all through the power of prayer.

Here is the field guide for every wife, mother, sister, daughter, and friend ready to fight for all she holds dear."

This book is truly an exhaustive resource for women who want to learn about spiritual warfare and how to fend off Satan's attacks. This incredible book covers many, many topics which are relevant to today, including abortion, divorce, pornography, and much much more. It also includes "Arsenal Scriptures for Spiritual Warfare", an index of Scriptures sorted by topic that you can pray and use specifically for your situation. There is also a section at the end titled "Prayers and Declarations Based on Scripture" that includes specific prayers you can pray for different problems you are having. I plan to copy these down on index cards and keep them handy so I always have a prayer and declaration to claim when I don't know the words to pray for a particular situation. This is the best book I've ever read on spiritual warfare. Quin and Ruthanne write in such an easy to read style that I felt like I was chatting with friends over coffee while I read this book. I also loved all the personal stories they included from their years and years of ministry and missions. I highly recommend this book - every Christian woman should read it and refer to it often!

I received a copy of this book from Chosen in order to provide an honest and unbiased review. All opinions are my own.

Surviving Death

Surviving Death by Leslie Kean is an investigative journalist's deep dive into the afterlife and all of the current scientific studies and evidence we can examine. The back cover says: "“While exploring the evidence for an afterlife, I witnessed some unbelievable things that are not supposed to be possible in our material world. Yet they were unavoidably and undeniably real. Despite my initial doubt, I came to realize that there are still aspects of Nature which are neither understood or accepted, even though their reality has profound implications for understanding the true breadth of the human psyche and its possible continuity after death.” So begins Leslie Kean’s impeccably researched, page-turning investigation, revealing stunning and wide-ranging evidence suggesting that consciousness survives death. In her groundbreaking second book, she continues her examination of unexplained phenomena that began with her provocative New York Times bestseller UFOs: Generals, Pi

Can I Just Hide In Bed 'Til Jesus Comes Back?

I'll admit - I wanted to read Can I Just Hide In Bed 'Til Jesus Comes Back?: Facing Life With Courage, Not Comforters by Martha Bolton and Christin Ditchfield mainly because of the cute cover (I mean, just look at it!) and the fun title. I often just want to hide in my bed with junk food, books, and Netflix and retreat from the world and responsibilities. However, I know that hiding in bed really isn't the answer to life's problems. I figured I'd pick up this book and see what Martha and Christin have to say about facing life head on. The back cover says: "Depression, fear, a sense of unworthiness, and unfulfilled dreams can make women retreat to their beds—figuratively and literally—and refuse to face life. Yet most of the time, hiding in bed makes matters worse. Who needs emotional bedsores? Authors Martha Bolton and Christin Ditchfield gently show women how to climb out from under their emotional bedcovers, face their fears and doubts, and step into the l

Forgiving Our Fathers And Mothers by Leslie Leyland Fields (with Dr. Jill Hubbard) is one of the best books on forgiveness I've read in a long time. Each chapter details a different aspect to the parent/child relationship and need for forgiveness, followed by a word from Dr. Jill and study questions. I really enjoyed this format. It was like getting to the heart of the matter with Leslie, and then visiting a professional psychologist (Dr. Jill) to process your emotions afterward. Leslie uses her own real life story, plus the stories of others who have had difficult relationships with their parents, plus plenty of Scripture, to trace the path to forgiveness and healing. This book really hit home for me. Warning: it will probably make you cry! Leslie's story, as well as all of the others, were alternately emotional, touching, sad, horrifying, and redeeming. I liked how Leslie brought practical tips to questions such as, "Do I have to forgive?", "How do I forgive?
