Swords Up: When the Battle Is Real, Know What’s in Your Hands with Author J. Harrington
What do you do when the battle is real—but you’ve forgotten how to use what God has already given you?
In this episode of At This Table, host Shelly Brown sits down with author J. Harrington to talk about her Bible study, Swords Up: Mastering the Weapons of Spiritual Warfare for Today’s Christian Woman.
J. shares the deeply personal experience that changed the way she understood spiritual warfare, the loss of her son and the unmistakable contrast between God’s overwhelming presence and the darkness she sensed in that hospital room. From there, their conversation turns to Ephesians 6 and what it means to move beyond simply knowing about the armor of God to actually using what God has given us.
In this episode with J. Harrington, you’ll hear:
- How J’s experience of grief awakened a hunger to truly know God
- What she discovered when she looked at Ephesians 6 with fresh eyes
- Why spiritual warfare also requires honesty and personal responsibility
- How to distinguish the Holy Spirit’s conviction from accusation and shame
- Practical ways to answer fear, overwhelm, and lies with the truth of Scripture
- Why prayer, surrender, and knowing God’s character are at the heart of standing firm
Ultimately, Swords Up isn’t about becoming more focused on the enemy. It’s about becoming more grounded in God, His Word, and what is already ours in Christ.
