Book Description

The world is a dangerous place. Enemies lurk in all corners -in our churches and in the world. Their faces are different, but they are equally deceptive. We must learn to recognize the enemies before our minds are twisted by their ungodly concepts. Some enemies come in the form of popular Christian concepts that are not truly biblical, such as

Quick-fix faith
Feeling-only Faith
One-sided Faith
Spiritual Superiority

Other enemies are the common notions we absorb from our world, such as

Self-Reliance
Affluenza
Shallow Character Development
Privatized Faith

In this book Don Posterski offers sound counsel in learning to be "wise as serpents and innocent as doves." Ultimately, we need not simply to resist but to love our enemies, and Posterski helps us find strategies for relating to and living among enemies with smiling faces.
