Jealousy--The Sin No One Talks about: How to Overcome Envy and Live a Life of Freedom

by R.T. Kendall

Overview

Jealousy. We all have to deal with it—both in ourselves and in others. Jealousy is rooted in our natural fears and insecurities. It has damaged relationships since the time of Cain and Abel, and still does today if we let it. In this wise and compassionate book, R.T. Kendall tackles, head-on, the sin that no one likes to admit to. He shows that it is only when we grasp that it is God we should aim to please that we will be able to recognize and overcome jealousy and, like Jesus, be jealous only for the glory of God.
