In "The Worms That Spoil the Fruit”, I talk about the worms that will hinder the fruit bearing process in the life of a believer - the worms of pride, anger, bitterness, and unforgiveness.  My prayer is that this book will help others to understand why it can be difficult for some people to develop the nine virtues that are listed in Gal 5:22-23, the fruit of the spirit.  Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

What others are saying about The Worms That Spoil The Fruit:

I was at a time in my life and ministry, when I felt completely hopeless and that all the answers to many of my personal problems, were non-existent.  It was until I received a copy of the Book by Joe Contaldi entitled  “The Worms That Spoil The Fruit”, and begin reading it, that I discover the real root, and the real issues to many if not all of my life’s problems and issues.  Upon reading Joe’s book, I found the answer to what I so desperately needed at the time.  It’s truly a divinely inspired work of literature and I personally believe it carries a message for all people in all walks of life of hope, of courage, and of love.

Joe Contaldi's book is well written and easy to read. Throughout the book you glimpse into the authors heart, for he wrote from his own experiences-good and bad alike. He teaches you how to recognize the worms that may be in your life and how to get rid of them. None of us need to live with pride, anger, bitterness, unforgiveness or guilt. When we are honest with ourselves to recognize these worms in our own lives, then we can rid the fruit of worms, and live whole, healthy lives the way God intended. We feel that this book should be in the library of every Christian as a great teaching tool.

I'm from Victory Outreach Victorville, CA. on September 29 2002 Evangelist Joe Contaldi came to our church to give a Seminar on self centered pride, anger, bitterness, unforgiveness and guilt. At that time I was dealing with a lot of anger, a week before Joe came to do the seminar, I tried to kill my husband. I was very angry with the lord and just wanted to give up. But that day during the seminar the Lord began to deal with me, and following the seminar during the worship and healing service as Joe was ministering he called me out and began to pray for me and I was delivered from the anger and I let the Lord take away all my problems an I now have peace, thank you Jesus. So if you have any anger give it to the Lord I did, and I recommend Joes book it has helped me and my husband to deal with our problems. And praise God on Feb. 10 2002 my husband got saved. God answered my prayers, all things are possible with God to those who believe.
