Ascent from Darkness: How Satan's Soldier Became God's Warrior

A life of difficulty and disappointment set 33-year-old Michael Leehan up for the worst decision of his life: make a deal with the Devil to follow and serve him. But God had another plan that included a group of Christian men to love him and pray for him--even when it became evident his assignment from Satan was to kill their pastor, Craig Groeschel. n nn nHis assignment from Satan was to kill Pastor Craig Groeschel. Today he sits on the front row of that pastor's church.n nFor twenty years of his life, Michael Leehan lived and worked for Satan. At age 33, he made a decision to serve the darkness that he felt had consumed his life, but instead of making things easier, it began a steeper downward spiral replete with ritualistic cuttings, blood sacrifices, jail time, job loss, estrangement from his friends and family, and actual murderous assignments from Satan himself.n nAscent from Darkness relates Michael's gripping, real-life encounters, enslavement to the powers of darkness, and miraculous emancipation from the clutches of the Enemy.n nFor anyone who has ever struggled with spiritual warfare, addiction, depression, or hopelessness, Michael's story is a bold reminder of the redemptive truth of the gospel that anyone--even a soldier of Satan--can be transformed and used for the glory of God.n nNow a servant of Christ, Michael exhibits the power of God's relentless love and offers readers the chance to experience their own ascent into God's glorious light.n nn
