Books Quote by Steve Gladen
““Satan doesn’t want you applying the principles in this book. He will do all he can to make you feel insecure and fearful, not wanting your group to continue. Why? Because he doesn’t want the Great Commission and Great Commandment happening. He doesn’t want you developing your leadership gifts. He wants you ineffective. He will use all he can to keep you from being focused and purposeful.””
