<p><strong>Guns and bombs are children&#39;s toys. </strong><strong>A true war </strong><strong>wages</strong><strong>,</strong><strong> and you&#39;re invited. </strong></p>

<p>IT&#39;S AN INVITATION you may not be able to accept if you want to, or decline if you don&#39;t. It&#39;s an invitation to fight in a war like no other; a war where loss is counted as gain, surrender as victory, and where the enemy you must face, an enemy of unimaginable superiority, is yourself.</p>

<p>In <em>Spiritual Warfare</em>, the metaphor of warfare rarely appears. Instead, we are presented with the living reality of a very normal woman - a wife and mother with a demanding career and high-stress lifestyle - and we see what happens when she receives an invitation that, try as she might, she can&#39;t refuse. And we meet another woman, a woman who accepted the invitation and fought and won. In the closing chapters of this book, we attend her memorial service as Jed delivers her eulogy.</p>

<p><em>Spiritual Warfare</em> issues a damning and irrefutable indictment of its own audience and genre, putting spirituality and religion themselves on trial. A terrible crime is being committed against humanity, a crime of oppression and subjugation far beyond Orwell&#39;s <em>1984</em>. We are the victims of this crime, but we are also its perpetrators. Our motive is fear, our sin is ignorance, and the chain in which we enslave ourselves is belief.</p>

<p><em>'Belief means not wanting to know what is true.' -Friedrich Nietzsche</em></p>

<p><em>Spiritual Warfare</em> is a book for those who do want to know; people who want to escape from their dark asylum and experience a direct and authentic spirituality; people for whom it&#39;s time to look, to think, to know, and, at long last, to put away childish things.</p>
