Equipping for Spiritual Warfare

EQUIPPING FOR SPIRITUAL WARFARE

Have you always been intrigued with spiritual warfare? Do you want to learn how to be victorious over the enemy’s schemes? In the Dunamis Project #5: Equipping for Spiritual Warfare, you will discover a sound biblical and theological foundation for understanding the nature of our struggle with evil. If you are moving in the gifts of the Holy Spirit and seeking to advance the kingdom of God, then you will inevitably come across spiritual opposition whether it is subtle or direct. This course will give systematic teaching and experience of what spiritual warfare is and how to deal with it. The weekend is held at Swan Lake Bible Camp in Viborg, SD from April 16-19. Register at www.prmi.org.
