Being God's Man in the Face of Temptation [Paperback]

Stephen Arterburn (Author), Kenny Luck (Author), Todd Wendorff (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 15, 2003

All men are tempted to compromise. But not all men do. Some have learned the secret of being undivided between what they believe and how they actually think and live.

They possess integrity. They’ve gained new perspectives on the trials and temptations they face, new tools to help them survive automatic human responses to challenging situations, and new actions which produce humility and flexibility in God’s strength. You can be a man of integrity too.

Confession breaks the power of temptation in men of integrity; connection with other men sustains the victory. Being God’s Man…in the Face of Temptation will help you–whether in individual or group study–confront this pervasive problem in God’s wisdom and strength. And begin to live the undivided life.

Guys that used it loved it. It helped to create conversation during bible study and brought up issues they might have not talked about other wise.
