Many of them do not know how to successfully continue on this faith journey. Some of us have the experience of knowing the Lord personally, but are not familiar with the steps to go on to maturity. It is at this juncture that Bro. Jiju, through his book "The Art of Defeating Death' is helping us with this spiritual journey.

The Art of Defeating Death' is an easy to read book. Overall, there are no theological jargons. The text is simple and it tell the readers that "God loves them", whether he is lovable or unlovable. The writer explains quite clearly that God's love for us is without any strings attached, unlike human love. He loves us just because He loves us.
