"The Invisible War" gives you .....The Visible Answers! Feb 16, 2007
One of the greatest misconceptions in the Christian walk is that once we become a Christian..life should just be, "easier, better, etc." Not so, Jesus promised us in John 17:33 that we will have MANY trials and sorrows..but HE has overcome them all. The "Invisible War" explains the Truth about our daily struggles. They are NOT what they appear to be on the surface...there is a greater battle taking place and if you are not familiar with the battlefield, the enemy and his tactics, and the weapons of warfare...you are going to lose the daily fight. We are taught ALL through out Scripture that we are in a "fight of faith" I am a HUGE fan of Chip Ingram...I only wish he had MORE books published! He is a fantastic writer and teacher of the Word. He is annointed in amazing ways and He speaks right to the heart of an issue. This book is no exception to Mr. Ingram's fantastic annointing. If you desire to walk in Victory, daily...you must read this book.
Balanced and Biblical Jan 12, 2007
I found this book to be a helpful addition to the subject of spiritual warfare. Illustrative stories helped to explain the principles explained, and the ongoing conflict of the Kingdom of Light with the kingdom of darkness and our role in it is clearly explained. For more advanced study, I would recommend Ed Murphy's Handbook of Spiritual Warfare.
Fantastic! Jan 11, 2007
This book is for all Christians, especially those in mainstream or evangelical churches. This teaches in "non-yahoo" ways about the reality of demons in the spirit world, and gives excellent teaching and examples from the author's life. The author does not come across as a charismatic and I would say that he is not. Yet this book could have been written by any of the leading charismatics due to its theology. It brings the subject matter of spiritual warfare from religious teaching to a warning call to all believers that there is an enemy out there and here is how he operates. I originally got my copy of this book from the author at a convention. I have since bought maybe 10 copies (all from this site) to give to friends. If you want a book about spiritual warfare that will present it in terms for any Christian - especially those who may be ignorant of it all - then this is the eye-opening book to read and give.
Critical knowledge for every believer Jan 3, 2007
Chip Ingram is just incredibly annointed to preach the Word of God in very applicable ways. The information in this book is critical for every believer and is written in a simple, straight-forward manner. There isn't anything controversial or distracting within this book and it is written to reach new believers as well as more seasoned believers. Many books have been written on this subject, this one is a terrific "spiritual warfare 101" volume. I highly recommend it.
Expected more Oct 30, 2006
The author's encounters were helpful, however I was expecting a little more based on the title. I know persons have had some very serious encounters, and have much to say on the subject. Helpful never the less.
