More than 90 people die from gun violence every day in the United States. Some 50 children and teens are shot. There are more than 35,000 gun-related deaths every year. Yet many Christians say gun violence shouldn't be talked about in church. In Collateral Damage, pastor and activist James E. Atwood issues an urgent call to action to Christians to work together to stop gun violence. An avid hunter for many years, Atwood enumerates the tragic and far-reaching costs that accrue in a country with more guns than people.

In this classic work, David Seamands encourages us to live compassionately with ourselves as we allow the Holy Spirit to heal our past. As he helps us name hurdles in our lives—such as guilt, poor self-worth, and perfectionism—he shows us how we can find freedom from our pain and enjoy the abundant life God wants for us.

The content of this book is the story about a personal struggle experienced by a man who has for obvious reasons requested to remain anonymous, but who suffered a very serious obsessive compulsive disorder for many years of his life, involving the area of sexual exhibitionism and addiction to pornography. I highly commend this man of Christian faith, for allowing others to understand and to learn from his experience, in spite of the anguish and guilt it caused him for many years of his life.

Finding Religion saved him from the trenches of life on the street. Like a wild animal having to adapt in a city jungle, this is the transformation of a young boy growing up in an environment of consistent pain, sorrow, and grief. While most homes provide safety and protection, this boy learned early that if he didn't adapt to the world around him, his life would be cut short. Each day was a test of survival and that was his purpose: to survive at all costs even if it meant condemnation.

The American church has become Toxic. Not just to those outside of its walls, but to those inside as well. And we shouldn't be surprised. The history of Christianity is fraught with instances of the church going off the rails. And always in the past, there has come a reform, a change, a decontamination, as it were, that course corrects. In that, we may find hope that perhaps that moment of change is at hand. The answer to detoxifying the church is no further away than a simple turn toward the very thing that Christ offered in his message and his ministry: grace.
