Publisher's summary

What are the seven deadly sins?

The Desert Fathers - Christian monks in the ancient Egyptian and Palestinian wilderness - strove to understand the causes and remedies of human sin and were the first to categorize temptations under the headings of the "deadly sins". This course will draw on their wisdom to gain a better understanding of how each deadly sin conflicts with God's plan of creation, redemption, and sanctification.

For almost as long as humans have been in existence, we have struggled with temptation and sin. A true sense of sin must start from the reality that human beings were created good and in harmony with their Creator, who desired also to be acknowledged as their Father. The Original Sin of our first parents - based on a terrible lie told to them by Satan - distorted human nature and impaired human freedom.

Unmasking the many and varied lies that the Enemy tells will enable us to fight temptation more effectively. Recognizing the wonderful truth of God's plan for us will give us direction and strength to take an active role in the spiritual battle.

This course is part of the Learn25 collection and includes a free PDF study guide.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Absolutely Phenomenal!

I cannot say enough about the profound nature of this book. It takes you to the true place where the seven deadly sins are addressed and through your own work defeated. Father Bochanski does such a wonderful job both in terms of writing this book and narrating it himself. This is the true path for the believer and as much as Dantes Inferno is the divine comedy for all-time and is creative and introspective it is not the true answer - this book is.

Fabulous treatise

I purchased this through my audible subscription and I must say I am on my 4th time though the book. I learn something new each time! It is one of the best treatments on the 7 Deadly Sins I have ever read or heard and a virtual prescription on their avoidance and/or treatment from the desert fathers. I hope it becomes available in print format as I have a few friends who have already asked for print copies.

Everything You Will Need To Know About The 7 Deadly Sins

This audiobook goes very deep into not only the deadly sins, but also why we as Catholics believe in the faith. This book gives us clarity on what it means to commit a sin. It also helps us to more clearly see the sins that can so often sneak into our lives. It also presents us with ways to fight against these sins through things such as prayer, community, and the Sacraments.
