Deadly: Confronting the Ancient List of Seven Deadly Sins Steve Duplessie

All the vices on the ancient list called The Seven Deadly Sins are still with us today. Some like Lust are amplified by our technology. Some like Greed and even Pride are valued and promoted as character strengths. Envy and Gluttony are the foundation of corporate marketing plans worldwide. The news headlines are filled with tragic reports of Anger. And even Sloth is all around us, not only in the ubiquitous litter that lines our streets and highways, but in smaller, unseen habits (or the lack thereof) of our private lives. They may be ancient, but they are all still here. And like all sins they are still deadly. And they are still confronted directly?and helpfully?by the teaching of Jesus. In Deadly! Steve DuPlessie exposes the old vices and introduces their corresponding virtues for the 21st century. Study Guide included.
