Spiritual inspiration for overcoming temptation.
Most people believe that they have a good grasp of what it means to be tempted. They've faced temptation in their lives, they know the right response, and they want to say no to temptation. But most people also admit that they frequently give in to temptation, and they bear guilt about doing so. What these people do not know, in part, is the whole of what the Bible has to say about temptation and how to overcome it
In Winning on the Inside Dr. Charles Stanley defines temptation, takes a look at the broader picture of spiritual warfare, and reveals the practical measures we can take to defend ourselves against the enemy's whispers. Understanding what Scripture says about temptation, sin, and how God's Spirit intercedes on our behalf can help us in times of need.
With over 1 million copies sold, theCharles F. Stanley Bible Study Seriesis a unique approach to Bible study, incorporating biblical truth, personal insights, emotional responses, and a call to action.

Dr. Stanley's goal is best represented by Acts 20:24: "Life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus-the work of telling others the Good News about God's mighty kindness and love." This is because, as he says, "It is the Word of God and the work of God that changes people's lives."
