RJ Tipton’s newly released “Staggering Through The Darkness” is a genuine and compelling exploration of faith and struggle

Windsor, KY, August 20, 2024 – (PR.com) – “Staggering Through The Darkness”: a riveting and brutally honest account of the spiritual and emotional struggles Christians face, particularly within the Southern Christian subculture. “Staggering Through The Darkness” is the creation of published author RJ Tipton, who has been married to his high school sweetheart for more than twenty years. He is the father of five incredible children and is friends with a mini Goldendoodle named Moses. “Bro. Reg,” as he is known, has been in ministry since 1998 and serves as the senior pastor of Hill Church in Liberty, Kentucky – a church he founded and organized during the 2020 coronavirus pandemic. He is also the principal of Galilean Christian Academy, a private Christian school also located in Liberty, Kentucky.

Tipton shares, “This book is a raw and compelling story about spiritual struggles, navigating dark valleys, the horrors of addiction, and battling with the loneliness that only years of shameful secrets can bring about, while on the outside we put on our best church clothes, pretend everything is fine, and try to serve Jesus with a sanctified smile on our faces like good Christians are supposed to while stumbling through the darkness. It's a story about how ugly and uncomfortable the sanctification process is when two kingdoms clash again and again.

“It is a story about the subculture of Christianity in the South, where traditions are in many cases synonymous with doctrine, and how the negative effects of a truly Christocentric community leave us abandoned, isolated and vulnerable.

“It is a story that sheds an unwelcome but painfully needed light on the dark corners of Kingdom life, even for church leaders, while also serving as a powerful reminder of redemption and grace and how the gospel has the power to continue to set us free if we allow it.”

RJ Tipton's new book, published by Christian Faith Publishing, offers a strikingly honest portrayal of the challenges facing believers and emphasizes the ongoing need for grace, salvation, and authentic Christian community.

Consumers can purchase “Staggering Through The Darkness” in traditional bookstores or online at Amazon.com, the Apple iTunes Store, or Barnes and Noble.
