Deliverance: A Journey Toward the Unexpected

Most Christians would agree that we are the only ones on earth equipped to help our family, friends, and neighbours when it comes to supernatural evil. Or at least we say we believe it. We say “yes" intellectually, but when it comes to actually dealing with evil, many of us are afraid and feel out of our depth.

What does the Bible really say about the demonic?

How did Christians deal with this in various cultures over 2000 years?

Do we even need this conversation?

For pastor and theologian, Jon Thompson, this has been a journey more than 20 years in the making as he and his church found themselves working through how to help desperate people and still remain rooted in Scripture.

In this book, Jon will lead you on a journey through the pages of Scripture and the experiences of Christians throughout the centuries as he outlines what has always been universally applicable when dealing with evil and what must be adapted to fit our different churches and cultures.

Topics include:

- The Scriptural basis for deliverance
- Deliverance throughout church history
- An explanation of spiritual authority
- The role of spiritual gifts in deliverance ministry
- An evaluation of the five major deliverance models
- Outline of a mixed model approach to deliverance

No matter our history, theology, bias, pain, or disbelief, we all need to engage in this conversation because there are people all around us who desperately need to be set free to live as Jesus promised.
