Kryptonite

You Can Destroy What Steals Your Strength Just like Superman, who can leap over any hurdle and defeat every foe, followers of Christ have the supernatural ability to conquer the challenges we face. But the problem for both Superman and us is there’s a kryptonite that steals our strength. Of course, both Superman and kryptonite are fictional. But spiritual kryptonite is not. This book offers answers to why so many of us are unable to experience the divine strength that was evident among first-century Christians. In Killing Kryptonite, John Bevere reveals what this kryptonite is, why it’s compromising our communities, and how to break free from its bondage. Not for the faint of heart, Killing Kryptonite is anything but a spiritual sugar high. This is serious truth for any Christ-follower who longs to embrace the challenging but rewarding path of transformation. Includes discussion questions for group study

Everyone has a weakness.

In 1965, a rock group named The Byrds reached back over 2,000 years and took verses from the book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible. When they released their song, the world sang "To everything - turn, turn, turn; There is a season - turn, turn, turn." Now, fifty years later, my book lets you consider these Old Testament words and evaluate their truth in your life. You first consider the role of choice and chance and then examine the negative side of life including natural disasters, demons, teasers, seductresses, weights, kryptonite, parasites, lunacy, idiocy, and other adverse influences. Next, you examine the positive side including angels, updrafts, sunshine, spinach, holidays/vacations, values, flowers, infusions, charms, and other positive influences. At the book's end, you determine how you see life and make plans to grow your life using your gifts and blessings. There are more than two dozen essays in this book and you reveal your thinking as you answer each essay question. Then I ask you to go online and post your anonymous answer on the website created just for this book. Your answer will be added to the Worldwide Bank of Wisdom(c) we will create together. Be part of this effort and help the world learn again!

Within the contents of this book are real life journeys that men and women all over the universe have in some way experienced or witnessed Mr. Kryptonite & Ms. Boomerang in action. On the pages of this book you will find a lot of truths we ignore both, Mr. Kryptonite as he doesn't see his own folly but leads Ms. Boomerang to believe that it is something she imagines, she just thinks stuff up. What she sees with her own eyes was not happening at all. While Ms. Boomerang accepts the responsibility because that is how Mr. Kryptonite keeps things going his way and she ALLOWS it in her life. For the sweet taste of bitter honey if only for the moment, she is under his power. A must read to identify yourself or someone you love. I think together we can change the effect of the power Mr. Kryptonite has on Ms. Boomerang. Becoming free from these types of people is going to take work; the main thing I continue to learn is when I fall down, I get up. Kind of like a push up, the more times I do it the easier it becomes till I can really do a great push up. (By the way, I am still working on my push-ups, can't do a one just yet.) Some days I can taste freedom from ever feeling like this again, other days I wonder if I will ever be anyone different. The one we can ALWAYS count on is God because He will never leave us or forsake us; we can count on Him no matter our rises or falls.
