Seven titles in one book. All the seven deadly sins explained and analyzed.
Book 1: Envy
Envy is often something we point out in others, but if we face the facts and admit to being imperfect, finding it in ourselves can actually improve our lives, our attitude, and our happiness. When we figure out where our feelings are wrong, we can take action and change our mindset. So many people think of envy as a sin against others, but actually, we are doing this to ourselves. We create our own misery by looking at others and comparing ourselves to them.
Book 2: Gluttony
Gluttony has been mistaken for many things in the past. Some people judge others for being fat. Some are confused as to how far to go when indulging themselves in delicious foods. And others wonder if self-discipline in general is the underlying commandment that is related to the sin of gluttony. Understanding the sin, and the essence of it, can be life changing. It can mean the difference between a constant nagging feeling or urge to have more, and on the other hand, a divine feeling of contentment and a smile on your face.
Book 3: Greed
We’ve heard it before: The love of money is the root of all evil. Greed, or avarice, has caused many to “err from the faith” according to Paul, who wrote to Timothy. “Flee these things,” he said, urging him—and all of us—to concentrate on Christlike qualities instead of worldly possessions, and on treasures in heaven, not on earth. Greed is everywhere. It is almost unavoidable. If we let go of the possessions that so easily possess us, we can focus more on God and His purposes.
Other vices include lust, sloth, wrath, and pride. Listen to this eye-opening audiobook now!
