The Christian journey is not a peaceful ascent—it’s a battle for the soul.
Temptation, procrastination, fear, trauma, spiritual apathy—they aren’t just psychological struggles. They’re also part of a deeper moral and spiritual conflict. Scripture and the saints speak often of the adversary—not only the devil, but anything in us or around us that resists God’s transforming work.
This page explores that inner and outer battlefield through the lenses of theology, psychology, and lived experience. You’ll find reflections on evil, trauma, moral resistance, and how Christ empowers us to fight with hope—not fear.
