{"product_id":"2940016421360","title":"Perils of Power: Immorality in the Ministry","description":"In Perils of Power, Richard Exley takes an in-depth look at immorality in the ministry.  It’s a complex issue involving the minister’s relationship with money, sex and power.  There are many factors at work including the minister’s self-image and sexual identity, his life-style, his marital relationship, the way he views power and even how he conducts his ministry.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImmorality is seldom just a “sexual sin” and while it is definitely a spiritual problem, it is more than just a “spiritual problem.”  Perils of Power looks beneath the obvious sins of highly visible ministers in an attempt to understand interpersonal dynamics of moral failure among those who recognize it is a deadly sin.  Dr. Exley offers scriptural insights and practical strategies for overcoming the temptations we all face.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCan immorality in the ministry be prevented? The most honest answer is no; that is, not completely. But rethinking the way we train people for ministry can significantly reduce the casualties.  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Word and Spirit Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47069918593264,"sku":"2940016421360","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940016421360_p0.jpg?v=1763635659","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940016421360","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
