Book Cover - Killing Sin
Killing Sin: Conquer the One Thing That Is Defeating You
Kill what’s killing you.

Every fiber of you aches to distance yourself from something holding you back—that one thing that is killing you. Pastor Karl Clauson understands.

How can we take hold of God’s promises and walk in freedom—not just for a day or a week but a sustained, lasting victory? In Killing Sin, Karl is honest about his own personal battles and draws from his decades of experience helping people conquer sin to show us the pathway to freedom.

Sin separates us from God, what Jesus saves us from, and what the Holy Spirit gives us power to overcome. Karl presents behavioral habits that hold you back, an understanding of how change happens, and strategies for winning wars grounded in Scripture. No longer do you need to hide or suffer alone. Killing Sin shows you how to successfully fight temptation and overcome the sin in your life.

Gabriela Blanco was born and raised in Havana, Cuba, under the communist regime that has ruled for over 6 decades now. Her family experienced the consequences of this terrible system firsthand; from having her great-grandparents’ business stolen and nationalized, to being separated from her father for over 10 years. At 23 years old she moved to the Cayman Islands by herself, where she lived for 7 years. In 2019 she came to the United States and was reunited with her father and siblings after nearly a decade apart.

During her journey she accepted Christ as her savior, and alongside her husband, they traveled the country as testimony speakers for the Gideons International, an organization devoted to spreading the gospel around the world. She is also actively involved in ministry and her local church community in Austin, Texas.

Gabriela holds a master’s degree in Event Management from Falmouth University in the UK, has extensive experience managing large events of 30,000+ attendees and is currently a Project Management consultant for the largest sports field construction company in the US. She is also a mother of one. Her family and her faith remain her biggest passions, both directly impacted by the Cuban authoritarian regime. Gabriela continues to be a voice for freedom, God, family values and continues spreading awareness on the effects of communist and socialist practices on family and life.
