Vanessa Davis Griggs has hit another homerun in this the second book, Strongholds, of her Blessed Trinity trilogy. If you want clean Christian fiction based on the Word of God, then this book is for you. Griggs takes us into the personal lives of some of the members of Pastor Landris' mega-church, Followers of Jesus Faith Worship Center, to show us that things are not always on the inside what they seem to be on the outside. Members of this church seem to have it all together but come to find out, they are struggling with the same struggles as non-churchgoing folks.
A husband and wife struggle together to overcome their addictions - he struggles with gambling and she struggles with overeating.
One man struggles with pornography, which he shares with his wife.
A workaholic husband and father is on the verge of loosing his family if he does not get the victory over his work addiction.
There is one female struggling with multiple personalities who does not know whether or not she is coming or going.
Other members struggle with adultery and fornication.
Then there are others struggling with their self-righteousness, and hidden sins of the heart.
Responding to Pastor Landris' altar call to break down their individual strongholds that is holding them back from a victorious life, travel with each member as he/she undergoes counseling seeking and hoping for deliverance.
We see the redemptive power that faith can have in people's lives. Griggs leaves us hanging as each struggle ends in the third book in the trilogy. You won't be disappointed.
