Greek and Roman tales of deities and demigods, what we call myths, are twisted versions of true history: Zeus is Satan, the Titans are the sons of god who came in to the daughters of man, and the heroes of the Golden Age are the mighty men of old—the Nephilim. If you were brought up in church, there’s a good chance you were taught that the pagan gods were imaginary. But God Himself calls them gods. 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.

Do you feel misunderstood...like no matter what you say, it’s misinterpreted? And the more you try to explain yourself, the more it seems to stir up confusion and conflict? Those are all signs that Leviathan is at work in your midst. Leviathan is a high-level demonic spirit that works subtly behind the scenes to twist and pervert communications with the goal of destroying relationships and alliances. It wants to derail your destiny.

Traditional interpretations of the creatures of the Bible have sanded down their sharp, unsavory edges, transforming them into celestial beings of glory and light—or chubby, happy cherubs. Those cherubs? They're actually hybrid guardian monsters, more closely associated with the Egyptian sphinx than with flying babies. And the seraphim? Winged serpents sent to mete out God's vengeance. Demons aren't at war with angels; they're a distinct supernatural species used by Satan and by God. The pattern is chilling. Most of these monsters aren't God's opponents—they're God's entourage.

The Book of Job tells us of two wild and untamable creatures, Leviathan and Behemoth. Some believe they are literal animals, alive or extinct, some even believe they were dinosaurs. Others say they are only mythological or symbolic monsters. The truth will surprise everyone. Author Brian Godawa, respected Christian and best-selling author of When Giants Were Upon the Earth, expounds in biblical and historical detail the true theological meaning of these chaos monsters in the Bible.

In Disarming Leviathan, Campbell equips Christians to minister to their Christian nationalist neighbors.

PLUNDERING LEVIATHAN is a podcast devoted to reclaiming the gold of this post-Christian culture for the glory of Christ. ”LEVIATHAN” is biblical icon for the enemy of God (Isaiah 27:1), and ”PLUNDERING” is evocative of God’s people taking the enemy’s gold to build the temple of God (Exodus 3:20-22). Music, politics, social media, art, sex, coffee, beards, recreational drugs, books, travel, tattoos, sports (and all the rest) is cultural gold that exists for the glory of King Jesus (Colossians 1:16). The enemy has been bound (Revelation 20:1-3), and now the church is called to ...

Tekoa Manning brings her listeners right inside the cave with David as he hides from Saul, feigns himself mad, and pants for water like a deer trying to cover his scent. During this traumatic journey, David pens some of the most poignant passages in our Bibles due to this crushing from the sea serpent.

In Slaying Leviathan, historian Glenn S. Sunshine surveys some of the stories and key elements of Christian political thought from Augustine to the Declaration of Independence. Specifically, the audiobook introduces theories of limited government that were synthesized into a coherent political philosophy by John Locke. Locke, of course, influenced the American founders and was, like us, fighting against the spirit of Leviathan in his day. But his is only one of the many stories in this audiobook.

The Disarming Leviathan Podcast features interviews with Christian leaders, authors and scholars that will give you a better understanding of American Christian Nationalism and equip you with tools to reach Christian Nationalists as a mission field.

Who thinks that they can subdue Leviathan? Strength resides in its neck; dismay goes before it. It is without fear. It looks down on all who are haughty; it is king over all who are proud. These words inspired PJ Wehry to create Chasing Leviathan. Chasing Leviathan was born out of two ideals: that truth is worth pursuing but will never be subjugated, and the discipline of listening is one of the most important habits anyone can develop. Every episode is a dialogue, a journey into the depths of a meaningful question explored through the lens of personal experience or professional expertise.
