Sinning Like a Christian: A New Look at the 7 Deadly Sins
Ebook
Overview
The seven deadly sins are a well-known topic, but, surprisingly, not much has been written about them in recent years from a serious theological viewpoint. Will Willimon’s engaging book, which takes an unflinching look at the meaning and substance of sin, will be of great interest to Christians. Study questions by the author are included. The “felt need” is an increasing dissatisfaction with shallow, feel-good Christianity—which does not attempt to grapple with our propensity, visible around us and in our own lives, to do evil. This edition includes a new introduction by the author.
An unflinching look at the meaning and substance of sin.
