Defeat the Enemy by Being Wise as a Serpent
Hard-hitting author challenges falsehoods, tackles controversial topics

LONGWOOD, FL-Christians have an enemy who is intent on thwarting them at every turn. But how do you fight an enemy you can't see? How do you prepare for attacks you can't possibly anticipate? In Matthew 10:16, Jesus said, "Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents." In The Wisdom of the Serpent: Understanding Your Role in the Kingdom of God (paperback, 978-1-60266-436-4), Vincent Chiedu encourages believers to stay several steps ahead of the opposition. According to Chiedu, in order "for the church to defeat the enemy, we must think like champions even in the face of seemingly insurmountable challenges." The best defense is by gaining a solid understanding of what the Scriptures actually teach and how God expects Christians to live.

Chiedu is a self-proclaimed hard hitter committed to seeing God's will realized across the entire body of Christ. He presents new insights and tackles controversial topics in an honest attempt to combat the lies and falsehoods being taught in the church today. With this book, Chiedu hopes to provoke in you a sense of personal responsibility for pursing a life of purpose and fulfilling your role, your specific assignment in the kingdom of God.

Vincent Chiedu is the president of Surrender & Triumph Ministries International. For three years he hosted the daily devotional program "The Dew of Heaven," which aired on one of the largest FM radio stations in Nigeria. Chiedu has a Bachelor's Degree in mechanical engineering, and apart from his ministry obligations, runs an independent automobile service facility in Nigeria. He has been married for eight years to his wife Joy, and they have two daughters, Ketandu and Amara.
