The Great Compromise: And how Christians can avoid living on both sides of the fence

These are just a few of the countless strong messages flashed before Christians daily. We want to live effective Christian lives-yet the lure of life on the edge is still there. Temptation. Idolatry. Immorality. Adultery. Our minds are repeatedly assaulted with hundreds of ways to take a little off here, a little off there... until biblical truth and values are completely eroded. With each small step, each subtle compromise, we're drawn further from Christ and closer to the abyss of spiritual failure. There is that last little push-that one last compromise- The Great Compromise...the one we can't pull out of.

Is there hope? Is there help? Greg Laurie says, "Yes!" In The Great Compromise, he exposes Satan's favorite ploys to pull Christians away from their faith and explains how each of us can take measures to avoid common pitfalls. This encouraging message for today also offers a way back for those who have found themselves ensnared. "Once you understand how compromise works," says the author, "it will change your spiritual life!"

Greg Laurie is the senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California, and the featured evangelist for Harvest Crusades, a contemporary outreach that has touched over one million lives.
