Beschreibung
These days, the devil is even more popular than God: 56% of Americans believe he's real, whereas only 54% believe in God. Yet in the Bible, Satan is barely present, barely speaks, and is subject to God's authority. So how has he gotten so much airtime in the lives of Christians and the wider culture?

At turns engaging, discerning, and humorous, award-winning biographer Jared Brock sorts through the myths and misinformation about the devil, revealing a biblical adversary we need to know, including

- his real name, home, and life story--past, present, and apocalyptic future
- his actual powers--and lack of power
- how to spot, avoid, and overcome his tests, tricks, and tactics

When we have a biblical understanding of our adversary, we'll see new and deeper ways to live as faithful followers of Jesus and grasp our role in his epic story--and the hope of Christ's absolute sovereign kingship over all things.
