Customer Reviews

You must have this book

Another reviewer said this book is valuable to anyone having problem with sin. One of the points this book makes evident is, that includes every human being. The book is not just about the traditional temptations of sex, alcohol, etc, but also losing your temper, being self sufficient, etc...I really believe this book can speak to anyone if read thoughtfully. It is an essential primer to any Christian wanting to know what sin and temptation are, how they originated, what forms they take, why it is important to battle, and how to accept the victory of Jesus Christ.

Get real with God & your struggle with temptation

This book by Stanley is real and practical. He challenges the reader to exam himself and get real with God. He outlines the devil's ways of introducing temptation and gives practical methods of dealing with it. The book means a lot to me personally, and I can reccomend it for anyone who is struggling with God or recurrent temptations.
