Enemies with Smiling Faces: Defeating the Subtle Threats That Endanger Christians

by Donald C. Posterski

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. Book jacket.
