"The greatest lie the enemy tells isn't that God isn't real... it's that indecision is safe."

We live in a world obsessed with neutrality. Stay quiet. Stay agreeable. Stay out of the way. But what if the very place we've retreated to for safety is the most dangerous place of all?

In The Devil Owns the Fence, Dr. Ty Wenglar challenges readers to examine the hidden cost of staying stuck in the middle. Drawing from personal experience, biblical wisdom, and years of leadership coaching, Wenglar pulls back the curtain on the spiritual numbness that can creep in when we avoid taking a side-when we trade conviction for comfort, calling for convenience, or faithfulness for fear of offense.

This is not a book of polite encouragement.

It's a spiritual alarm bell.

It's for men and women-especially leaders, fathers, and believers-who know they've been straddling the line between full surrender and subtle self-preservation.

Wenglar writes with the voice of someone who's been there:

The exhausted pastor trying to be everything to everyone

The father afraid to lead spiritually at home

The business leader quieting his beliefs to fit in

The believer drifting into spiritual apathy, but still showing up on Sunday

Through each chapter, he confronts the questions we often avoid:

What am I afraid will happen if I fully commit?

Have I mistaken indecision for wisdom?

Who benefits from my silence?

What do I lose by not choosing?

You'll discover:

Why spiritual neutrality is a myth-and a trap

How subtle compromises create deep disconnection

Where bold faith can start even if you've felt lukewarm for years

What it looks like to re-engage your calling with clarity and courage

How grace doesn't excuse passivity-but empowers action

With authenticity, grit, and a relentless call to truth, The Devil Owns the Fence is for every reader who's tired of playing it safe-and ready to take spiritual ground back from the middle space they never meant to live in.

This isn't a call to perfection. It's a call to movement.

Whether you're on the edge of burnout, feeling spiritually numb, or just quietly aware that you're not all-in where it matters most-this book offers more than challenge. It offers a path forward.
