A New York Times bestseller! Do you want to live a life of unstoppable strength, unmovable faith, and unbelievable power in the face of every challenge? Learn how to become an Overcomer—starting right now. We live in a time of deep uncertainty, and yet the Bible promises that we were created to enjoy lives of freedom, even in times when the world around us seems filled with darkness. You were not made to live in disappointment, disillusionment, and defeat, and God has given you the tools to live a life defined not by your trials, but by your victories. In Overcomer, beloved Bible teacher Dr. David Jeremiah offers his insights on one of the most quoted but least understood passages of the Bible: the apostle Paul’s admonition to the Ephesians to take up the whole armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18). With his signature depth, wisdom, and compassion, Dr. Jeremiah explores the powerful relevance of spiritual armor as a critical tool each day as we confront the specific challenges in our lives and of our time. Overcomer contains: Examples of how the people of God have overcome their enemies in the past Inspiring stories of victorious Christian living today Specific strategies you can practice armoring yourself in God’s strength In Christ, believers have everything necessary to live a victorious, overcoming life. If you’ve had enough of living in defeat, it’s time to find renewed strength and claim the promises of God’s Word to overcome life’s greatest threats.
The enemy or Satan lies to everyone, especially nonbelievers of Jesus Christ. From firsthand experience, stop listening to the enemy! The enemy lied and deceived me my entire life. I don’t want this to happen to you. These lies just don’t come from him; he uses people in your life, such as people in school, coaches, and even family members, to deceive and lie to you. Don’tfall for it. The thief’s purpose is to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). I got sick and tired of being angry all the time. I knew I needed to change because if I didn’t, my life wouldn’t be worth living anymore. I needed peace and joy in my life. I was tired of hurting the loved ones around me because of my attitude. After giving my life to Christ in 2008, He helped me and, still to this day, helps me heal day by day. It’s all about forgiving yourself and allowing Jesus to work inside of you. Our Jesus helps me to heal through scripture and dreams. I went to plenty of therapists, and they never helped me. Don’t let your pride prevent you from letting Jesus heal you. Don’t think you’re too tough for Jesus. Jesus never tapped out or gave up on us, so why should you give up on yourself? Grow closer to Jesus, and He will grow closer to you. Jesus’s door is always open; have the guts to cross the threshold! He is waiting for you and wants a relationship with you. You have nothing to lose. Give your burdens over to Jesus, and quit having the enemy lie to you as he lied to me.
Christian women have allowed shame to condemn and confine them for far too long. If you’re ready to turn things around, Aubrey Sampson—a pastor’s wife, and an advocate for at-risk women—invites you to become an unashamed woman. Using the model of a house, “Sampson identifies eight major lies of shame such as: I’ll have more value when I change; I cannot experience freedom from shame; My past is unsalvageable; and Shame is only traumatic. Written with a strong biblical theology and humorous authenticity, as well as true-life stories shared by women of all ages, Sampson equips readers with tools for an ongoing spiritual discipline of “shamelessness.” Sampson deals directly with the shame that comes from comical moments in life, as well as from sexual abuse, eating disorders, addiction, abandonment, and other real-life issues. She also encourages women to transform their life’s story into ministry, creating ripple effects of hope and healing that can change the world. Written for any woman whose self-worth has been stolen, Overcomer gives her the courage, in Jesus, to reclaim it.

"A Message to the Overcomer" is a collection of messages originally written for a weekly e-mail ministry. The intent of each message is to encourage Christians to experience a deeper life in Christ. Each message offers a practical approach to overcoming life's issues. The book has six categories and they include principles to live by, Christian living, old and new, salvation and exhortation.

My desire is to see God's people grow in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. I pray God will open up the eyes of your understanding as you enter into the world of the overcomer. Rosita Dozier's life changed August 7, 1981 when she gave her life to Christ. That event set her life on a path of studying and learning all that she could about God and his son the Lord Jesus Christ. The first six years were set aside for intensive spiritual training, which included learning how to pray, how to study the scripture, outreach, teaching and full time ministry. The overall focus of the training was to overcome the world, the flesh and the devil. Thus living the overcoming life is more than a concept to Rosita, it is a way of life. Teaching women is her top priority, and she has conducted bible studies for over twenty years. She's written articles for church newsletters, helped pastors put oral messages into print and edited several books. She writes often and looks forward to writing many more books to the glory of God.

Author's Testimony The toddler had been told to remain on the grassy embankment. Instead, she tried following the family down the rippling creekbed. Walking was slippery, her feet slid into a hole, and water now surrounded her nose, her face up to her eyes! An authoritative whisper inside her said, "Stay calm. Take one step back," Her little mind, thought, It's slick back there. That's how I got into this hole. Scared, almost witless, she obeyed that whisper. Miraculously, she was again standing in shallow creek water. She still remembers the relief of taking a deep breath of air. That was the first time the author met Jesus, son of God! Now He says, "Go public! In parables tell your story of the three true life-altering events! Introduce the hoosier heroes everyone loved. Believe in your Savior who spearheads victory!" Interwoven as well in "An Overcomer's Eye for an Eye" are enchantment from Lucinda's heart and comedy from her work-a-day world experiences. You will not be able to lay down this action-packed eye-for-an-eye parabole! HS:ls
