Blame Game Victims
Suddenly your teenage son's grades drop and his attitude changes. Suddenly a spouse files for divorce. Suddenly a man's seemingly harmless pastime turns destructive.
In every one of these situations each person looks for someone to blame. Each one is a victim, but not in the way he or she might think. Deadly invaders have taken up residence in each victim's heart; that intangible place where we experience love, compassion, anger, and jealousy. There is hope, however, a way to fight back. In this feature we will be exposing these four invaders of the heart, and will be arming you with four weapons designed specifically to destroy them. You can overcome these monsters and save your world.
This feature is based on the book by Andy Stanley entitled, "It Came From Within!"
