It will walk you through the depths of what it means to "Wait upon the Lord," "Walk in the Spirit," and "Be Filled with the Holy Spirit."

Militant Thankfulness

It happened, one day, in an attic.
While Dustin (known to his friends as "Dusty") was removing a rat from a client's home, he would receive a phone call that would change his life. It was a simple question from a friend. A question so profound it would cause him to completely forget about the dead rat he was holding.

It would be the answer to that question that would eventually produce the book Militant Thankfulness: An Essential Practice to Experiencing a Full Spiritual Life.
