Author Biography: Greg Laurie

GREG LAURIE is senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California. He began his pastoral ministry at the age of 19 by leading a Bible study of 30 people, which God has since transformed into a congregation that is among the eight largest churches in America. In 1990, Laurie began holding public evangelistic events called Harvest Crusades. Since then, nearly three million people have attended Harvest Crusades in California, Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon, New York, Pennsylvania, Washington, North Carolina, New Zealand and Australia. He is the author of a number of books, including the Gold Medallion Award-winner, The Upside-Down Church.

Book Synopsis

I know it’s wrong…but everybody is doing it.
I’ll quit tomorrow.
It’s not my fault!
I can’t help it; I’ve been under so much stress…
I deserve this.

Sound familiar? We often tell a little white lie and then wonder why we were tempted to do something wrong. We don’t recognize that the lies we tell ourselves often lead to sinful behavior.

Here, dynamic pastor Greg Laurie takes an honest and often humorous look at the ways we fall into sin and how we frequently rationalize our actions. Drawing from the pages of Scriptures and his own experiences, he shares practical steps you can take to effectively resist temptation and put an end to the compromises that will ultimately harm you. Discover how telling the truth will change your life!
