No. 206: [NEW BOOK] Defeating The Devil Inside (Subtitle: Travails of a Young Believer, and His Misguided Female Convert)

August 17, 2015

On the surface, my new book's title - Defeating the Devil Inside - and its story line, suggest it's primarily about religion i.e. the devil, angels and Christians battling evil (It's actually based on the script for a play I wrote in 1987 at the age of 17 - which was dramatized during the Youth […]
