We've all heard the saying, "too much of a good thing". This can apply to many of the actions and behaviors that would be called "virtues". By overemphasizing certain traits, Christians can lose spiritual balance. In this book, Ray S. Anderson offers invaluable help to readers seeking balance in their walk with Christ. He challenges them to develop and practice fourteen virtues that together build a stable spiritual life. This book is more than a primer on virtue, as Anderson provides a unique look at how each Christian virtue can turn bad if it is overemphasized. This comparison allows readers to see both God's design for their lives and how that design can go awry when selfishness and sin intrude. Living the Spiritually Balanced Life is a useful tool for readers eager to build up their spiritual well-being. It is also helpful when used in a mentoring program or a group Bible study.
