Original and early Muslim audiences viewed this as miraculous and responded to the Qur'an's words, sounds, rhythms, etc.

In this audiobook, we will dig into these truths and so much more as we dismantle the false teachings that keep believers in bondage and defeat. Primary among them is the idea that we still have a "sin nature", and it is our job to conquer sin and walk in holiness; a devastating lie from the enemy.
