Respectable Sins

Description

“Respectable Sins” by Jerry Bridges confronts the subtle sins that often go unnoticed or are deemed acceptable by Christians, yet they can be just as damaging to spiritual growth as more overt transgressions. This book challenges readers to address these “minor” sins, such as jealousy, anger, pride, unthankfulness, and judgmentalism, which frequently permeate daily life and erode the soul. Bridges uses biblical wisdom and his own deep understanding of Scripture to explain how these sins are not only disrespectful to God but also hinder a believer’s relationship with Him.

Throughout the book, Bridges offers convicting insights into how these respectable sins manifest in our lives, backed by suggestions for overcoming them through the gospel’s power. His approach is both gentle and straightforward, encouraging profound reflection and a heartfelt response. “Respectable Sins” serves as a wake-up call to believers to maintain vigilance against the subtlety of sin and to pursue holiness through the grace and mercy of Jesus Christ.
