Summary
As Christians, we believe that all sins are considered equal in God's eyes. Yet while evangelicals continue to decry the Big Ones - such as abortion, adultery, and violence - we often overlook more deceptive sins. It seems we have created a sliding scale where gossip, jealousy, and selfishness comfortably exist within the church. In short, some sins have simply become acceptable.
Acclaimed author Jerry Bridges believes that just as culture has lost the concept of sin, the church faces the same danger. Throughout, Jerry encourages victory over personal sin through the gospel's transforming power. This release is perfect for listeners who long to thoughtfully examine their lives and discover a deeper walk with God.

Overall a good book
Some very good points on areas we commonly accept in the church. Even if you don't have the same convictions, the book encourages thoughtful consideration and sharpening of our relationship with God.

Excelente
Often these ‘respectable sins’ are easily dismissed. The author addresses areas where the self righteous person rarely visits or admits. I know for myself I was personally convicted and I am thankful that someone had the courage to address these areas because so many books are written on the ’big outward’ sins but too few on the ‘respectable ‘ sins. A must read for those of us desiring to please the Lord from the inside out.

A must read for followers of Christ
A great book. It was incredibly convicting. For a 6 hour book, it took me WEEKS to finish it because I had to stop it so many times. A great and humbling book for Christians to read and realize just how much we fall short of God’s Glory in our daily lives, and how much we need His Grace and Mercy.

An amazing foundational overview of everyday sins we should all become aware of!
This book was excellent. An easy read that gets straight to the point, offering great words of wisdom to make us aware of our sins that we are often blinded by. We should be very aware of all of these sins regularly and this book does an awesome job at bringing them to light, as well as encouraging us to be action provoking rather than just thought provoking.

A must to listen, more than once if possible
The narrator’s voice is a bit dry, but the subject of the book so good that it kept me fully engaged. I plan to listen again so I can digest each chapter a little more.
