"'The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons' (1 Timothy 4:1 NIV).

"Steve Dabbs's new book, When Demons Surface, is a very readable introduction to the topic of spiritual warfare. He gives abundant evidence of what the Bible says about Satan and demons and also draws copiously on extrabiblical sources from the ancient world on the subject. Along the way, he shares many encounters with demons from his work in ministry. This book is a worthy contribution to the literature on a biblical calling that the church needs to understand and, when appropriate, engage in."
