Sin: How It Lies, Why It Works, and What Breaks It (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798177672946)

You already know it's wrong. That was never the problem.

A book for Christian men who are tired of losing the same fight.

You've read the verses. You've prayed about it more times than you'd care to count. You have meant every word of every apology you've ever made to God about this.

And you keep going back.

Most books about sin will tell you to try harder, or hand you a program, or quietly imply that a real Christian wouldn't still be dealing with this. You've read those. They didn't work, and some of them made it worse.

This one starts somewhere else, with a claim Scripture makes that we mostly skip past. Hebrews says believers are "hardened by the deceitfulness of sin." Deceived first. Defeated second.

Sin's weapon isn't appetite. It's argument. And you can't out-willpower an argument you've already accepted.

So this book asks three questions, in order:

HOW IT LIES: what sin says, and why it sounds so reasonable.

WHY IT WORKS: why the argument still lands on someone who loves God.

WHAT BREAKS IT: what God has given us to kill it.

No five steps. No promise that the struggle ends this side of the resurrection. Just the argument laid out where you can finally see it, and the answer Scripture gives, which turns out to be more practical, and more costly, than the advice you've been handed.

Written for men, by one who is still in the fight.
