The Devil You Don't Know: Recognizing and Resisting Evil in Everyday Life

With insight reminiscent of The Screwtape Letters, Rev. Louis J. Cameli challenges readers to reconsider what they've always believed about the devil. In some ways, it's easy to believe in a devil who makes heads spin round and enables people to levitate. By contrast, in The Devil You Don't Know: Recognizing and Resisting Evil in Everyday Life, Louis J. Cameli paints a challenging, unsettling portrait of the devil as a formidable adversary who works great harm, often in quiet ways.

While remaining a fixture of popular culture, the devil has - until now - been largely ignored in contemporary spiritual writing. Cameli exposes the devil's tactics of deception, division, diversion, and discouragement, in individuals and also in institutions. This thoroughly biblical, deft exploration considers the personal and social dimensions of sin, and offers both enlightenment and hope in the power of Christ to overcome evil.
