I was wondering if any of our LCMS friends or any others have read the above book, Afraid: Demon possession and spiritual warfare in America by Concordia Publishing House, Robert H Bennett.

My online LCMS Pastor friend is doing a study on it and it looks fascinating by review.

Just wanted some “real life” (name removed by moderator)ut if any is available.

Blessings,
Mary.
 
The title is actually I Am Not Afraid: Demon possession and spiritual warfare in America. Quite a difference, those missing three words make. 😉

I have not read it, but I’ll eventually get around to buying a copy. I’m a bit wary about buying these sorts of books - not because of any misgivings about the source (CPH nearly always has terrific offerings and generally doesn’t publish unorthodox nonsense) nor because of any superstitions about studying the occult. But I have to ask myself - will my interest in this topic advance my faith? If not, then I have to wonder if the Old Adam is simply looking to satiate some carnal curiosity about the Accuser. And that just won’t do. So I’ll pass for now, but I look forward to reading what others learn from it.
 
He has written two separate books; one under each Title.

This is the one I am going to study:

(NEW) Afraid: Demon Possession and Spiritual Warfare in America
 
Look at that! I didn’t realize he wrote another. A rare instance where I’m out of the CPH loop.

I pray the study proves to edify your faith in Christ, His church, the sacraments, and the Word.

LOL…We can’t have that, you out of the CPH Loop!~:D I’m a fan of CPH myself.

Thank you for the kind wishes, I’m looking forward to studying/ reading it.

Mary.
