Why Publish Spiritual Warfare? “It’s Bigger than Me”

If you ask author, Candace Paul, about her debut novella, Spiritual Warfare, she’d tell you it almost didn’t happen. “I’d devoted endless hours writing this book only to tuck it away for years unsure if I should pursue publishing it.” Candace said.

For her, the book was not intended to be a casual light-hearted read. The book was meant to make readers think about the spiritual consequences of their choices. “I guess I was concerned that I would somehow be the bearer of bad news and I didn’t want to be that person.”

However, an epiphany changed Candace’s position. “I was watching the news and I heard yet another story of an unarmed black man killed by police. Shortly thereafter, I saw a documentary about the tainted water in Flint, Michigan and how the issue is still unresolved. Then, I read statistics about the crime rate in Chicago and the mass incarceration of African-Americans and Latinos. All of this was followed by learning that collectively humanity passed the “Carbon Tipping Point” and I felt myself getting very upset and frustrated by what was happening in the world while simultaneously having this overwhelming sense that there was nothing I could do about it.” Candace said.
