Being a Deliverer of human souls is a very responsible job, even if it has been thrust upon you against your will when all you’d wanted was a nice, quiet suicide. Obviously, it’s a job you should take seriously, train for exhaustively and carry out meticulously. And if you don’t? Well, maybe you’ll find yourself in an isolated shack in the middle of nowhere living a life of reclusive luxury with supplies that magically replenish themselves and only a cat for company. Until, one day, you realise you should have paid just a bit more attention on arrival in the Transitional State, perhaps even actually attended the training sessions because suddenly you’re required to match a never-ending flow of re-cycled souls to their new parents and you’ve absolutely no idea of how to do it. And maybe, you'll discover you're responsible for the Great Fire of London, the birth of Hitler and the rise of Eva Lyam, the white-supremacist President of the USA who seduces her interviewer live on camera and threatens the world with all out nuclear war. If that happens, maybe you'll be given one last chance to prove yourself or face Eternal Damnation. And then what will you do? Well, maybe you'll get dragged along on a voyage of self-discovery which takes you through a bawdy seventeenth century play, a glitzy 1930s cinema, a hard-right political rally in the American dust-bowl and a re-training programme where you learn sleight of hand and physical metamorphosis after being forced to watch footage of your five previous suicides. And maybe you’ll enlist the help of Death, a dapper, pinstriped-suited individual with an ever-present MacBook, The Voice in Your Head, a verbose and didactic mentor who just won’t ever shut up and a courier named Nick, an Ethereal Being who just happens to be a leather-clad Harley-riding hunk and the sexiest thing you’ve ever laid eyes on. And, as you break every rule in the book in a desperate attempt to SAVE THE WORLD, maybe you’ll find you've saved yourself in the process. Narrated with a quick-fire, quirky humour, this thought-provoking and sometimes moving book explores fundamental contemporary issues around life after death, mental health, politics, gender and enduring love.

In The Deliverer, Mara has to make some major choices: (1) whether to trust her feelings for Jonathan, despite the fact that she fears men in general; (2) whether to risk returning to Mexico to find her family, the very ones who sold her into slavery when she was just a child; (3) whether to receive God’s forgiveness and then offer that forgiveness to those who have so viciously hurt and betrayed her. Lawan is also deeply involved in this final book, as it opens with her winging her way from Thailand and all that is familiar to come and live with the family who adopted her younger sister, Anna.

When someone becomes a Christian, they belong to God--but the devil doesn't always let go easily. Sometimes he tries to hold on to what--who--used to be his. That's why deliverance ministry is so important, freeing God's people from the ties that can bind and keep them from knowing the fullness of their new life in Him.

God goes to great lengths to rescue lost and hurting people. In this 8-session video Bible study (streaming included), enter the unfolding progression of the Old Testament and the advancement of God's complex plan to deliver his people. Deliverance is what the story of the Bible is all about. But throughout the Bible, there are two parallel dramas unfolding: The lower story, which describes the events from our human perspective. The upper story, which reveals how the events unfold from God's perspective. The goal of the God the Deliverer Bible study is to introduce you to these lower and upper stories as told in the Old Testament books of 1 Samuel through Malachi and the thread of deliverance that weaves through them both. As you read these narratives—featuring characters such as Samuel, Saul, David, Jeremiah, Daniel, Esther, Ezra, and Nehemiah—you will see how God has been weaving our lower story into the greater upper story that he has been writing.
