Subversion from the Beginning is the first book in a series that traces and exposes the unrelenting Satanic opposition to the Christian faith throughout this present evil age. Subversion is Satan's MO to continuously undermine and oppose the essential foundational truths of "the faith"—the Body of Apostolic Doctrine, primarily related to the person, provision and proclamation of Jesus Christ.

Not only that, He’s judged them, found them wanting, and proclaimed a sentence of death on these rebels. But they’re not dead yet. They’re angry, and they’re coming back.

When Western Christians think about God, the default image that comes to mind is usually white and male. How did that happen? Christianity is rooted in the ancient Near East among people of darker skin. But over time, European Christians cast Jesus in their own image, with art that imagined a fair-skinned Savior in the style of imperial rulers. Grace Ji-Sun Kim explores the historical origins and theological implications of how Jesus became white and God became a white male.
