The Unseen Battle: Spiritual Warfare with Dr. Joel Muddamalle

Author and theologian Dr. Joel Muddamalle joins us to talk about spiritual warfare, trusting God in uncertainty, and the deeper story Scripture tells about the unseen battle.

Joel shares two powerful “hope stories” from his own life—walking through fear when his missionary grandfather was kidnapped overseas and when his young son suffered from seizures—moments that taught him to trust the Lord when life feels out of control.

Drawing from his book The Unseen Battle, Joel offers a clear, biblical overview of spiritual warfare and how the entire story of the Bible points to a loving Father restoring His family. This is an insightful and encouraging conversation about God being our refuge and Christ's victory of dark powers.
