This book is about sins. Not the ugly, notorious sins we have come to know and hate. But the little, daily sins. The snail-sized sin habits that slither undetected in the shadows and eat up our lives from the inside out. This book is about the sins that nag us, resist our spiritual treatments, and persist beyond all our measures to contain them. The subtle sins. The respectable and acceptable sins. The resilient and relentless sins. The diehard sins. Learn how you can enter into your struggle against destructive daily habits, understand your needs in the right, and bring Christ and His provisions to bear upon your beliefs and desires-equipping yourself to gradually kill the unkillable.

D.C.

Eighteen months later, he discovered that he had merely been a pawn of corrupt government and law enforcement officials seeking to eliminate their competition and ensure the continued success of their own criminal enterprises. Now Doc Holloway has vowed to bring down these corrupt individuals and to see to it that they reap what they have sown. The wages of sin is death.

'Sin Less' focuses on the sin nature and selfishness against which every Christian struggles--a subject more often avoided than brought into focus.

It encourages and guides you to live a life with the hope that as you trust in Christ you can have victory over your sin. --Deborah Bartow, Training and Support Manager for Wycliffe Associates
