What happens when real-life trauma collides with unshakable faith?
SWAT: Seeking Wisdom and Truth is a powerful, story-driven Christian book that takes readers into the front lines of law enforcement-and the front lines of the soul. Drawing from more than two decades of police work, author Jon Zirpolo shares true, raw experiences from patrol cars, crash scenes, swamps, schools, and homes where life hangs in the balance.
But this is not just a book of police stories.
Each chapter connects real-world encounters with timeless biblical truth, offering honest reflections on faith, doubt, failure, contentment, temptation, grief, worth, and redemption. From devastating accidents and encounters with addiction to moments of compassion, conviction, and grace, Zirpolo challenges readers to examine what it truly means to be Seeking Wisdom and Truth-not just in belief, but in action.
Using Scripture, personal storytelling, and thoughtful reflection questions, SWAT speaks directly to:
• Christians struggling with doubt or spiritual burnout
• Readers wrestling with guilt, trauma, or past mistakes
• Those searching for purpose, hope, and renewed faith
• Small groups, Bible classes, men's studies, and personal devotion
This book does not shy away from hard topics-including death, addiction, suicide, and brokenness-but it always points back to God's mercy, the value of every soul, and the transforming power of the gospel.
You're either seeking wisdom and truth-or you're not.
This is not a spectator's journey.
This is SWAT school.
