Honesty Morality & Conscience [Paperback]

Jerry White (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 1996

INTEGRITY. We want to be men and women of integrity. But living honestly is tough-particularly when the standards for ethical behavior seem to shift and change constantly. And there are many areas about which the Bible doesn't speak specifically. How do we know what to do about those "gray" areas of life? In Honesty, Morality & Conscience, Jerry White takes a hard look at some of life's "gray" areas. He explores such topics as questionable business practices, lying, declining morals, sexual immorality, superficial relationships, and even our own self-deceit. And he explains how following Scripture, the Holy Spirit, and our conscience leads ultimately to right convictions and right decisions.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Helpful, down-to-earth...This book will be used of God to remind Christians that their lifestyle ought to be qualitatively different from that of our relativistic society. -- Vernon C. Grounds

In an age that is creating immense pressures on individuals to keep pace and survive in a global economy, a book such as Honesty, Morality & Conscience is much needed to reinforce the Christian's scriptural foundation for living life in the marketplace with integrity. -- Al Lunsfored, chairman of The Global Commerce Network

4.0 out of 5 stars Now a classic; a perfect intro to practical Christian ethics, October 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Honesty Morality & Conscience (Paperback)

Written 20 years ago, Jerry Bridges still speaks directly to the mind and heart.... especially to young adults forming their own views about what it means to live honestly in a dishonest world. He gives practical and piercing suggestions about how to live the real Christian life. Theologically astute, Biblically accurate, the book is nevertheless extremely readable. As a Professor teaching Christian ethics, I recommend this work highly.
