Author Josiah Everstone works through twelve chapters covering what the Bible actually teaches about spiritual warfare, identity in Christ, the armor of God, resisting temptation, the battle of the mind, and standing firm in daily life. The material rests on serious biblical scholarship, from D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones's exposition of Ephesians 6 (1977) and John Stott's The Message of Ephesians (1979), through Wayne Grudem's Systematic Theology (1994), Clinton Arnold's Powers of Darkness (1992) and his Zondervan commentary on Ephesians (2010), to Timothy Keller's Prayer (2014), with constant grounding in Ephesians 6:12 and the wider witness of Scripture.
Clergy will find a clear, theologically careful framework for teaching a congregation about the enemy without drifting into sensationalism on one side or denial on the other. Worship leaders and intercessors will find practical instruction on prayer as a weapon rather than a last resort. And any reader who has felt the weight of temptation or condemnation will find a steady, biblical case for why they are not a victim in this fight but a victor already secured in Christ.
This is not a book about fear. It is a book about standing firm, armed with truth, and walking in the freedom Christ purchased at the cross. Get your copy today and learn to fight the battle you are already in.
Josiah Everstone writes for believers and church leaders who want a theologically careful, Scripture grounded approach to spiritual conflict. His work rests on serious engagement with biblical scholarship and pastoral theology, drawing on writers including D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, John Stott, Wayne Grudem, Clinton Arnold, and Timothy Keller. Understanding Spiritual Warfare reflects his conviction that Christians face a real unseen battle, but one they are equipped to win, standing not in fear but in the finished victory of Christ.
