Are you aware of the hidden dangers planted by Satan along your spiritual path? Helping you navigate the devil's minefield, Stanley shows how to identify, avoid, and defuse seven explosive booby traps that can derail your faith---pride, jealousy, insecurity, compromise, unforgiveness, sexual sin, and laziness. A must-have survival guide for your Christian journey! 256 pages, hardcover from Nelson.
Satan doesnt usually hit us with an all-out frontal attack. Its the little landmines that do the most damage. Theyre hidden just below lifes surface, and at the slightest misstep-BOOM! Suddenly you find yourself flown right off the path, feeling separated from God and His blessings, humiliated, estranged from the love and respect of friends and family.
Dr. Charles Stanley addresses nine main landmines that every Christian needs to be able to identify:
- Pride
- Jealousy and Envy
- Insecurity
- Compromise
- Unforgiveness
- Disappointment
- Fear
- Immorality
- Laziness
Life may be a minefield, but that doesnt mean you have to live in fear. Dr. Stanley spells out the biblical principles for avoiding and defusing each of these landmines. In the midst of spiritual warfare, this book is a call to live in the strong peace of God.

Charles Stanley is one of my favorite authors to help believers understand in clear terms what the Bible says. In this book we are given specific instuctions as to what to avoid so we don't fall into the minefield of sin.

I read this book and decided after reading that the church could use it as Sunday school material. I developed sunday school material around it and asked for permission first and he gave the okay. Come next year in February I will be teaching using his book as the base for my lessons.

I have only begun to study these lesson from Dr. Stanley, yet already have found specific truths that have given encouragement and insights into struggles that have weakened my fellowship with Jesus Christ and other Christians. I am still amazed at how simply put truths can fill my heart with hope and excitement. Reading a little bit at a time and often re-reading things recently covered
I plan to glean plenty.
The only draw back that I have is the verses quoted in the book are not from the KJV, the Bible I trust.
