This theme of battling the inner zombie has been on my mind for several years. As a singer/song writer I have spent most of it trying to write a song about it rather than just write about it. While I have (finally!) succeeded in doing just that God has made it apparent that I wasn't the only person who He was impressing this upon. How do I know that? Simple, someone DID write about it.
The book is called the Christian Zombie Killers Handbook - Slaying the Living Dead Within (http://www.amazon.com/The-Christian-Zombie-Killers-Handbook/dp/1595554386/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1335194664&sr=8-1) and it is a fantastic book. The author takes what could be a very dry subject and turns it into not only an entertaining book but one that is a fairly quick read. He does this by starting every chapter with part of a fictitious story about a guy named Ben who lives in a world where physical zombies are real and are becoming an increasing menace. Each section of the fictitious story illustrates the point he's going to make in that chapter so going back and forth between reading about Ben and reading about what the author has to say about the subject flows fairly well.
The book does a great job of laying out what scripture says about this inner battle. It is very thorough and thoughtful at the same time. If you get a chance I would recommend picking this up, it is definitely worth reading.
