Caden had been watching, though, and he'd always hated it when people picked on Jamie.

The little omega distracted me, and now I’ll pay the price. I wasn’t expecting a monster to stumble across me as I was bathing, I just wanted to soothe the heat burning through my veins.

The Deformation invites listeners to take a fresh and honest look at several foundational teachings of the Reformation—such as total depravity, penal substitutionary atonement, the meaning of “works of the law,” the role of free will, and the interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount.
