The author writes, “Shortly after a major surgery, I learned that a rare parasite had been found in my body…I later learned that if the parasite had lived, it would have traveled to my eyes… Spiritual parasites do the same thing. They enter during moments of vulnerability or weakness, and, left unaddressed, they will feed off the host until they render it useless or destroy it.”

Tina Blount uses her personal example to show how the same thing is happening in the Body of Christ today. The seven churches in the Book of Revelation form the backdrop for her very clear and compelling warning to believers today. Beware of these spiritual parasites:

• The parasite of busyness
• The parasite of fear
• The parasite of compromise
• The parasite of tolerance
• The parasite of blind hypocrisy
• The parasite of inferiority
• The parasite of complacency

Most importantly, though, this book shows how to protect the Church and our own lives through effective spiritual warfare.
