Publisher's Synopsis
A Journey Through the Divine and the Corrupt, the Sacrificial and the Redeemed
Power. It builds kingdoms and topples empires. It elevates the humble and humbles the proud. It can be a force for unimaginable good or unspeakable evil. But what happens when power becomes an idol? What happens when ambition consumes the soul, leaving behind only the hollow shell of what once was?
In Dead Men on The Altar of POWER, readers are invited on a gripping journey through the heart of one of humanity's most potent forces. Drawing deeply from the wisdom of the Bible, this book explores the dual nature of power-its divine origin, its corrupting potential, and its ultimate redemption. From the tragic stories of those who sacrificed everything on the altar of ambition to the transformative example of Jesus Christ, who laid down His power for the sake of love, this book challenges us to confront our own relationship with power.
Through vivid storytelling, profound biblical insights, and practical wisdom, Dead Men on The Altar of POWER reveals:
- The Divine Gift of Power: How power, when rooted in humility and aligned with God's purposes, can bring life, justice, and flourishing.
- The Corruption of Power: The warning signs of pride, ambition, and isolation that lead to the misuse of authority.
- The Redemption of Power: How surrender, service, and sacrifice can transform power into a force for healing and hope.
- The Future of Power: A vision of a world where power is fully redeemed, perfectly aligned with the divine will, and eternally surrendered in worship.
This is not just a book about power; it is a call to action. It challenges us to examine our own lives, to lay down our ambitions, and to use whatever influence we have been given to serve others and advance God's kingdom. It is a reminder that the choices we make about power will shape not only our own destiny but also the lives of those around us.
Who will you become?
Will you cling to power for your own gain, or will you offer it back to God as an act of worship? Will you bow before the altar of ambition, or will you kneel at the altar of surrender?
The stakes are high, and the consequences are eternal. The choice is yours.
