Little Sins, Big Problems

LITTLE SINS, BIG PROBLEMSis an eye-opening, provocative journey for Christian women across seven dimensions of sin-hidden in corners of everyday life. It's a book that goes beneath the surface of daily experiences to help women understand and avoid the stealth, destructive forces that undermine spiritual growth and diminish peace. The author exposes the reader to the silent, insidious presence of sin in everyday life-the so-called "little sins"-that are bigger and more glaringly flagrant in God's eyes than we normally recognize. It's s starling message that takes readers on a compelling and emotional journey into the pervasive and often blind nature of feminine sin. The book soars with emotional highs and low's-including a harrowing account of the author's thirteen-year battle with an eating disorder. It's written in a fresh, unique voice that moves the reader from laughter to tears with a message that has the power to change lives. Reading the book is like talking to a friend-fun, exciting, and interesting. WHAT YOU DON'T SEE CAN HURT YOU! Unfair Judgments-how our perceptions can lead to harmful false assumptions. Vanity- how superficial pursuits spin us into an exhausting competitive state. Materialism-how the quest to acquire things can blur spiritual focus. Boredom-how an idle mind feeds itself on empty nourishment like gossip. Omissions-how we slip into a net of inertia when people need us the most. Indolence-how our frenetic, consumer-oriented lifestyle drains us of energy to serve. Broken Promises and Empty Words-how our words can betray trust and commitment.Onderdonk, Sarah is the author of 'Little Sins, Big Problems', published 2003 under ISBN 9780899571409 and ISBN 0899571409.
