Sin the Absence of Love
Author: Daniel Stevens
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1490846026
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
Most evangelical Christians have a reasonable grasp on the Bible, especially the New Testament. The challenge is applying the principles taught by Jesus in making decisions. We are all taught to love our neighbor and put others interests ahead of our own. Does this mean we can never consider our own interests? Do we need to give everything away? When competing in sports or business, do we need to let our competitor win if we truly love them? Do we need to give others whatever they ask of us? How do we prevent ourselves from being taken advantage of? Is there sin within the church itself? Why has God set the world up the way He has? What is the purpose of evil and temptation? Why do our survival needs force us to be selfish? These are the questions this book attempts to answer.

Book Description
Alice Monroe is a good person who is about to do a very bad thing. All my life, I'd worked tirelessly to achieve perfection. Perfection was in my blood, and so was the art of dance. All that hard work had earned me my dream job as a professional dancer, the perfect boyfriend, and the naïve belief that perfection was built to last. All it took was one night. One night to tear down everything I had built until I was left single, jobless, and my heart stained with betrayal. With my tail tucked between my legs, I drove me and my broken heart to Chicago to move in with my older sister until I was back on my feet. Little did I know that this was just the beginning of my twist of fate nightmare. Ethan Black was waiting for me in Chicago as a perfect stranger. A handsome, effortlessly charming, makes-my-heart-beat-out-of-my-chest stranger. I didn't subscribe to the idea of soulmates before him, but now I'm convinced. The only problem? Ethan's engaged to be wed to my sister.
