Covered in Christ (December 8 Spiritual Liberation Series, #52)

Covered in Christ boldly dismantles the widespread belief that every Christian needs a "spiritual covering" from a pastor, prophet, or apostle. Drawing from Scripture, theology, psychology, and history, the book argues that Christ alone is our true covering-no human leader holds the key to our destiny, protection, or approval before God.
The book exposes the dangerous evolution of this doctrine-from early Catholic hierarchies through the Shepherding Movement to today's loyalty-driven charismatic systems. It reveals how spiritual covering has been weaponized to create fear, demand absolute submission, sever family ties, destroy marriages, and enforce dependency on church leaders.
With clarity and compassion, each chapter reorients readers back to biblical truth: honoring parents (not pastors) is the only relationship promised to bring long life; a godly marriage affects well-being more than any spiritual father ever could; and true leaders are called to equip, not enslave.
The book also offers healing to those wounded by false covering-those who feel rejected, cursed, or confused after leaving manipulative church systems. It shows how to walk free from fear, rebuild faith, and reclaim your identity in Christ.
Reflection questions and practical action steps make this not just a theological argument, but a personal journey toward spiritual freedom. Covered in Christ declares that the veil has been torn-no pastor stands between you and God.
You are not spiritually naked when you walk away from false authority. You are already covered-by the blood, love, and righteousness of Christ.
