Overview:

Long Night's Journey into Day : Christians often feel powerless in the face of relentless temptation, even after earnestly praying for God's help and mustering every ounce of self-control at their disposal. It is all too common for believers to experience temporary victories only to endure the heartbreak of falling once again into old patterns of behavior. Does life on earth have to be a life of moral defeat? Author and pastor James Emery White shows what separates one who fails to achieve lasting spiritual progress from those who journey past the trap of temptation toward a life of virtue. In Long Night's Journey into Day, Dr. White leads readers on a refreshing examination of personal transformation by helping them recognize the pitfalls that the early church identified as the roots from which all other sins grow. White reveals the corresponding virtues that overpower each of the sins and demonstrates how to utilize desire, power, and knowledge - the three biblical keys to conquering personal sin. As Christians follow their desire to reject sin, claim the Holy Spirit's power, and draw from the knowledge that comes through their experience of God, they can leave the darkness of temptation behind and experience the daylight of God's transforming work.
