No More Victims: An Underdog Who Came Out on Top Challenges You to Put a Stop to Bullying in Your School

It happens every day. People are deeply wounded by the words and actions of those around them. And it affects them for the rest of their lives. We've all been there - we've all been wounded and we've all wounded others. But it's time to become "wounded healers," loving and protecting the people around us. The Wounded Spirit has become more than a book. The message has connected with thousands and has become a national movement. This 64-page call to action, entitled No More Victims , is designed as a giveaway to students for them to join in the fight against bullying.

About the author

Frank E. Peretti is an American author whose work transformed the landscape of contemporary Christian fiction by introducing suspense, supernatural conflict, and spiritual warfare into mainstream religious storytelling. Widely regarded as a pioneer of the Christian thriller genre, he achieved international recognition with the bestselling novels This Present Darkness (1986) and Piercing the Darkness (1989), books that captivated millions of readers and helped redefine the possibilities of faith-based fiction. His novels combine fast-paced storytelling with biblical themes, presenting unseen battles between angels and demons alongside the everyday struggles of ordinary people. Over the course of his career, Peretti's books have sold more than 15 million copies worldwide and have been translated into dozens of languages, making him one of the most influential Christian novelists of his generation. Born in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, and raised primarily in Seattle, Washington, Peretti overcame a difficult childhood marked by a facial tumor that impaired his speech until corrective surgery and therapy allowed him to communicate more freely. Those early experiences of isolation, ridicule, and perseverance later inspired both his memoir The Wounded Spirit and his lifelong concern for children facing bullying. Before becoming a full-time writer, he studied English, filmmaking, and screenwriting, worked various jobs, performed with a bluegrass band, and served alongside his father in pastoral ministry within the Assemblies of God. His experience teaching children at church camps rekindled his passion for storytelling and ultimately led him toward writing. After publishing the children's adventure novel The Door in the Dragon's Throat, Peretti experienced a breakthrough with This Present Darkness, a manuscript rejected by numerous publishers before becoming an extraordinary bestseller through enthusiastic reader recommendations. He continued his success with novels including The Oath, The Visitation, Monster, Illusion, and the popular Veritas Project series for younger readers. Several of his works have also been adapted into films, including Hangman's Curse, The Visitation, and House, the latter co-written with fellow novelist Ted Dekker. In addition to fiction, Peretti has written memoirs and nonfiction books addressing bullying, personal healing, and Christian living. His writing is distinguished by its vivid portrayal of spiritual warfare, moral conflict, redemption, and the enduring struggle between good and evil. While many readers praise his compelling narratives and imaginative vision, his theological interpretations have also generated discussion and criticism within Christian circles, particularly regarding the depiction of angels, demons, and supernatural conflict. Nevertheless, his influence on Christian publishing remains profound. Many authors and commentators credit Peretti with opening the door for a new generation of Christian suspense and speculative fiction, while scholars have noted the lasting cultural impact of his novels on evangelical readers and modern religious literature. Through his storytelling, Peretti established a distinctive literary voice that continues to inspire readers seeking fiction that combines suspense, faith, and the supernatural.

[Mitchell Smith · Rating 1 out of 5]

This was terrible. Genuinely one of the worst books I have ever read and I can't believe someone gave me this as a kid, thinking it would actually help. It's just straight-up religious propaganda. Absolutely disgusting.

This book so far is so good. and I feel like it's gonna be a eye opener for my life. I'm really enjoying it. It touches my heart and gives me emotion. Also, a big huge page turner. I loved this book. It's super great. It changed the way I saw the view towards other people. This is a great book. It takes really deep and makes you want to keep reading. The life of this character is so interesting just by the way he became such a great man in his life no matter what he went through.

A wonderful reflection of a life most of us have gone through, bullying. We all are human, writes the author, but we all find faults and tear others apart because of those faults we have nothing to do to fix. Perritti is honest about his past and helps us all see the harmful effects of bullying and how we can change if we just have the desire to do so.

No More Victims By Frank Peretti is another Non-Fiction "Anti-Bully" book and the followup to "The Wounded Spirit." Very good teaching tool for everyone. All should read this book. This book hits home on a personal level.

This was an interesting read written by an author with both points of view...Bullied and Bully. Thought and memory provoking, I could see myself on both sides of the issue. Highly recommend!
