Informative

Dr. Lutzer starts out by talking about mastering one's desires. In this book on spiritual warfare he discusses the war within and how to be victorious. He distinguishes between temptation and sin. He writes, "a tendency is not necessarily a destiny."His chapter on greed has some significant things to say about stewardship in general, as well as some solid and practical advice. He goes on to devote other chapters to various sins such as alcoholism, pronography, and occultism. His book is written for the overcomer, the one who wants to please God by conquering the negatives in one's life.
