<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"The bestselling author of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry equips readers to recognize the lies and resist the forces that seek to steal their happiness, wholeness, and holiness"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i>NEW YORK TIMES </i>BESTSELLER - The bestselling author of <i>The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry</i> equips readers to recognize</b> <b>and resist</b> <b>the lies that seek to</b> <b>rob them of peace and freedom.</b> <p/><b>"<i>Live No Lies</i> is brilliant, deep, scriptural, and will equip you to face the enemy and fight."--Jennie Allen, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Get Out of Your Head</i></b> <p/>We are at war. Not with a foreign government or domestic terrorists or a creepy new artificial intelligence hell-bent on taking over the world. No, it's a war we feel deep inside our own chests: we are at war with lies. <p/>The problem isn't so much that we <i>tell</i> lies but that we <i>live</i> them. We let them into our bodies, and they sabotage our peace. All around us in the culture and deep within our own body memories are lies: deceptive ideas that wreak havoc on our emotional health and spiritual well-being, and deceptive ideas about who God is, who we are, and what the good life truly is. <p/>The choice is not whether to fight or not fight, but whether we win or surrender. <p/>Ancient apprentices of Jesus developed a paradigm for this war; they spoke of the three enemies of the soul: the devil, the flesh, and the world. <i>Live No Lies</i> taps into this ancient wisdom from saints of the Way and translates the three enemies for the modern era, with all its secularism and sophistication. As a generation, we chuckle at <i>the devil</i> as a premodern myth, we are confused by Scripture's teaching on <i>the flesh</i> in an age where sensual indulgence is a virtue not a vice, and we have little to no category for the New Testament concept of <i>the world</i>. <p/>In this provocative and practical book, bestselling author John Mark Comer combines cultural analysis with spiritual formation. He identifies the role lies play in our spiritual <i>de</i>formation and lays out a strategic plan to overcome them. <p/>Do you feel the tug-of-war in your own heart, the inner conflict between truth and lies? The spirit and the flesh? The Way of Jesus and the world? It's time to start winning. It's time to live no lies...<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This is the book I've been waiting for and one of the most important books a follower of Jesus will ever read.

This is the book for our day."<b>--Annie F. Downs, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>That Sounds Fun<br></i></b><br>"I devoured every word of this book and found myself deeply stirred and nourished.

You will emerge better after reading these pages."<b>--Bryan Loritts, author of<i> Insider Outsider<br></i></b><br>"Every day we are dealing with temptations in multiple forms that draw us away from faithfulness to the Way of Jesus.

An essential guide for discernment in our contested age."<b>--Mark Sayers, senior leader of Red Church in Melbourne, Australia, and author of a number of</b> <b>books including <i>Strange Days</i> and <i>Reappearing Church</i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>John Mark Comer</b> is the founding pastor of Bridgetown Church in Portland, Oregon, a teacher and writer with Practicing the Way, and the bestselling author of <i>The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry </i>plus four previous books.
