Silence the Lion

"What if recovery doesn't have to last a lifetime? What if freedom from addiction could happen in an instant? When you discover who you are and who the enemy is, you can see the finish line of your battle!" Unknowingly thrust into a marriage with an addict, Noelle soon learns that she is in a full-scale battle with an enemy she doesn't understand: Addiction. To succeed in the battle, she must first discover who the enemy is, how he operates, and the tactics he likes to deploy to come between their freshly-made marriage vows. What ensues is not only an attempt to save her marriage but a massive war between good and evil, darkness and light, ... and life and death. With references to Daniel in the lion's den, addiction is personified as the enemy: The Lion. The Lion attempts to devour her husband, Sam, and drag him deeper into the pit of addiction with the full force of his armory. Still, a monumental faith overshadows even the Lion's greatest attacks. When faith in God's Word and His promises to us are changed with a higher perspective, the supernatural is possible! This book is the miraculous story of breaking the chains of a twenty-year battle with addiction in a single moment. Coupled with reflection questions and helpful guidance along the journey, this book can be seen as a war manual for defeating addiction and achieving life-long recovery.
