Respectable Sins
Whatever happened to sin? Author Jerry Bridges asks if Christians have become so preoccupied with the major sins of society that we’ve lost sight of our need to deal with our own more subtle sins? Bestselling author Dr. Bridges returns to his trademark theme of holiness and addresses a dozen clusters of specific “acceptable” sins that we tend to tolerate in ourselves – such as jealously, anger, pride, unthankfulness, and judgmentalism. Writing not from a height of spiritual accomplishment, but from the trenches of his own battles with sin, Jerry Bridges offers a message of hope in the profound mercy of the Gospel and the transforming grace of God as the means to overcome our subtle sins.
