"Rather it is the culmination of a series of seemingly innocent compromises that ultimately result in a tragic fall." Exley refers to seven stages of temptation that are common in almost every sinful failure. Maybe you will recognize them, or maybe you are struggling at one of them right now.

It is a guide to enhance your Christian walk by allowing scriptural principles to become part of your spiritual disciplines.
