One of the most intriguing Christian books that I have seen come out recently is Landmines in the Path of the Believer.

"This new bestseller by beloved pastor and spiritual warrior Charles Stanley takes on one of the most important issues facing Christians in today’s materialistic world. It brings to the surface the subtle temptations that confront us as adults…the dangers we absolutely must teach our children how to recognize and deal with if they are to lead God-centered lives.

When we’re in the heat of spiritual warfare, it doesn’t take long to realize that Satan will do anything to prevent us from becoming the person God has planned for us to be. A fair fight is not in the cards when we face this deadly adversary bent on cutting us off from God and capturing our souls. He doesn’t always employ an all-out “in your face” assault, preferring instead subtle, secretive schemes loaded with temptations, or “landmines,” he’s hidden along our paths.

These landmines—Pride, Jealousy and Envy, Insecurity, Compromise, Unforgiveness, Sexual Sin and Laziness—once detonated can paralyze us spiritually and stop us from living an abundant and obedient life according to God’s plan. In Landmines n the Path of the Believer, we learn how to identify, avoid or defuse them.

Avoiding serious trouble isn’t difficult, says Dr. Stanley, if we know what to look for and follow the route God has given us to travel. God knows the safe way through every minefield—and Charles Stanley gives us the skills we need to follow it home to Him.”
