Book Reviews of The Workbook on the Seven Deadly Sins
Book Review: Great group Bible study resource
Summary: 5 Stars
We have used this workbook as a Lenten Bible study at my church this spring. There are about 20 people in the study and each person, at some point, has expressed how much s/he is learning and how much s/he enjoys the study. More than that, it has made all the participants more aware of the pervasive reality of sin in our lives, which has led to a greater desire for God's forgiveness and healing. The authors continually point to Jesus Christ and warn repeatedly about not doing things in our own strength or just "trying harder". They speak of the transformation that is only possible through surrender to the Holy Spirit. The study has convicted and inspired us on a personal level, but has also inspired great discussion of depth and insight.
I know of many other churches who have used this study (usually during Lent) and I have heard nothing but rave reviews. Frankly, I am shocked by a couple of the negative reviews here. This is a great tool for study and discussion. I would highly recommend doing this with a group. Again, I've only heard wonderful things from other pastors and church leaders who have actually used this resource in a church setting.
Summary of The Workbook on the Seven Deadly Sins
"We're uncomfortable talking about it. We may try to ignore it or focus our attention on euphemisms: challenges, weaknesses to overcome, struggles, etc. We convince ourselves that the evil in the world is caused by sick people who are nothing like us. ""Sin is real,"" writes the authors of this bestselling workbook. ""It's a part of each of us - even those in the church. ...All social ills are an extension of that which seethes and rages and contorts in the hearts of individuals.""The Workbook on the Seven Deadly Sins illustrates how sloth, lust, anger, pride, envy, gluttony, and greed are ever-present in individual lives and society. As one reviewer has said, ""What might seem archaic words begin to live again in the context of active faith. This is a study for real people who seek to have a meaningful faith during challenging times.""
This eight-week study for individuals or groups is soundly rooted in scripture and helpful without being judgmental. Become more aware of the expressions of sin in your own life. Discover how Christ brings new life and can deliver you from the impulses that get between you and God.
Korean language edition available from the World Evangelization Research Center, Seoul, Korea."
