Fully revised and updated, this handbook shows readers how to exercise authority in the spiritual realm, providing protection for themselves and others and transforming lives.
Everybody who follows Jesus will encounter a myriad of “authorities” that directly challenge the authority of Christ. These other “authorities” may be parents, teachers, bosses, presidents, institutions, religions, or ideologies.
