THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL
D. JAMES KENNEDY
Though the Body of Christ has faced persecution throughout its history, these attacks will never be victorious. In this book, the authors’ show how these attackers are on the wrong side of history--those opposed to Christianity have been destined to lose, as the Church continues
to grow--and give readers hope for tomorrow and Christ like responses that can help make a difference.
This timely and important book is an excellent resource! Kennedy examines the "hammers" that attempt to crush Christianity (i.e. the media, movies, the distortion of the first amendment, etc...) and explains why "The Gates of Hell Shall Not Prevail!" 288 pages from Thomas Nelson.
This is an inspiring book full of hope. It pulls no punches. The gates of Hell are clearly seen in all their horrific might. Yet against that black backdrop the irresistible strength of Christ tears through and destroys the darkness in ways that surprise and embolden every reader. D. James Kennedy is one of the most brilliant defenders of Judeo-Christian values in America today.

Review:
There are very few books that Christians must read. The Gates of Hell Shall Not Prevail is one such book. It’s a practical volume that shows Christians how to deal with the culture and become more than conquerors. As soon as you read it, you will want your friends to read it.
