Most Christians have been taught that spiritual warfare looks like rebuking demons, binding darkness, and fighting invisible forces through the right spiritual techniques. But the Bible tells a different story. In Support by Fire: A Practical Guide to Spiritual Warfare, Army Ranger veteran and seminary student J.D. Crosby cuts through the noise and returns to the three overcoming principles found in Revelation 12:11 - the blood of the Lamb, the word of testimony, and not loving your life to the point of death. These are not abstract concepts. They are the lived-out reality of a Gospel-centered life, tested in the wilderness, forged in spiritual discipline, and meant to be fought alongside other believers. Drawing on his decade of military service, his own raw testimonies of addiction, fatherlessness, and spiritual breakthrough, and a deep walk through Scripture, Crosby maps the disciplines that prepare a believer for real spiritual battle - prayer, the Word, fasting, worship, and the full armor of God - then shows why no soldier advances alone. Through the military concept of support by fire, he calls the Church back to its original design: a community of believers who cover one another in prayer, speak prophetically into each other's lives, and hold the line so the person next to them can take ground. Support by Fire is for the believer who is done with shallow Christianity and ready to learn what it actually means to overcome - together, by the blood, by the testimony, and by refusing to love their life more than they love Jesus.
