Description:The Traitors has captivated millions worldwide, as contestants form alliances, lie, betray, and “murder” one another. From our sofas, we are confident we would spot the liars. Yet week after week, the faithful banish the wrong person. Humans are not very good at detecting deception.What if the real traitor isn’t on the TV screen?Society urges us to follow our hearts, be true to our identity, and manifest our dreams. When life disappoints us, we blame damaging relationships, oppression, or trauma. Some seek answers through years of counseling. Much of this work has value. Suffering is real. But could there be a deeper reason for our troubles?An ancient prophet wrote, “The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately sick; who can understand it?” (Jeremiah 17:9, ESV). This challenges our belief that human nature is basically good, apart from a few obvious perpetrators. It suggests that each of us is damaged, not only by what others have said or done to us, but also by our own self-deception. We are not only deceived. We also deceive. You are not responsible for the sins committed against you. Naming the traitor within us does not erase injustice done to us. It is the beginning of genuine healing, not self-blame.Adrian Warnock draws on his training as a doctor, clinical work as a psychiatrist, pastoral care in a church leadership team, and lived experience with chronic illness. He offers a realistic diagnosis of the human condition, exploring suffering, identity, sin, and social expectations. He explains the difference between healthy guilt and destructive shame. This is not a call to self-condemnation or to excuse harm done to you. It is an invitation to moral clarity, creating space for honest accountability without identity collapse. Alongside what is wrong with us comes hope, forgiveness, grace, and practical suggestions for how we can begin to experience healing in each dimension.A moral and ethical framework emerges that is not about pointing out the flaws in other people but about learning how to live together peacefully, despite the polarization and hostility we find online. We learn to appreciate how diverse ancient traditions have shaped many of the moral instincts we take for granted.This early access edition of The Traitor Within explores how our bodily signals mislead us, how our minds distort reality, and how fractured trust is at the root of our broken society. Many say we have outgrown religion. But perhaps we have also lost meaning and forgotten ancient wisdom forged over thousands of years. The inclusion of chapters by both Charles Spurgeon and John Newton, updated into modern English, highlights their timeless insights into the deceitful human heart.If you are weary of shallow answers and ready for uncomfortable truths grounded in genuine hope, The Traitor Within is accessible to any reader yet deep enough for health professionals, counsellors, pastors, and theologians. It proposes a biopsychosocial-spiritual model of wellbeing and personal transformation.Within its first month, The Traitor Within ranked on Amazon as a top new release in Christian Anthropology and Christian Counseling & Recovery.Early reviewers say:“A rare kind of spiritual book that refuses to flatter the reader.”“Honest about human brokenness without becoming bleak, and firm about truth without losing tenderness.”“This is not another shallow Christian self-help book with spiritual slogans taped over modern psychology.”About the Author“Adrian is a first-rate communicator.” — Albert Mohler JrPart of a series of books by Adrian Warnock Transformed by Jesus: Spiritual Renewal which describes the transforming power of resurrection hope and the invitation to a new life in Christ, lived out in a community of believers.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
