FROM THE PUBLISHER: The gospel of Jesus Christ is not about what Jesus can do for your life. It is not even the answer to the question, \u201cHow can I be saved?\u201d It is the declaration of a victory. In His coming to earth, His suffering, and His Resurrection, Christ conquered demons, sin, and death. In Arise, O God, author and podcaster Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick introduces us to the spiritual war that Christ won by His victory, how we are caught in that war\u2019s cosmic crossfire, what the true content of the gospel is\u2014and how we are to respond.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
