How do we discern righteousness when vice is accepted as virtue? Not long ago, most people would agree that the seven deadly sins are in fact deadly. But ask them today, and you'll hear a different answer. Today, "anger" is an admirable emotion, "lust" an expression of love, and "greed" the unassailable right to "get what's yours." The seven deadly sins are now seven dangerous virtues--how are Christians supposed to know what's good, true, and pure? Dangerous Virtues will teach you how to recognize these seven deadly sins as they are subtly disguised in culture. Dr. John Koessler provides a theology of sin and why the Christian must develop a prayerful heart and discerning eye to accurately distinguish virtue from vice. You'll develop a historical, societal, and biblical framework so that you can identify sin in a world calling good evil and evil good.
