Overview

"It's one of the most common complaints against Christians: """"They're all a bunch of hypocrites!"""" Yet surprisingly, the topic of hypocrisy has remained largely unaddressed both in Christian and secular literature. In Hypocrisy, James Spiegel draws insights from ethics, theology, psychology, apologetics, and spiritual formation to guide you through this complex subject."

Reviews

A unique and profound treatment of a basic structure of evil that permeates our homes, communities, and institutions, secular and sacred. I recommend it highly. --Dallas Willard, University of Southern California A careful, insightful, and interesting analysis of the nature of hypocrisy, its causes and consequences, and its relationship to self-deception and weakness of will. I know of no book like this anywhere. . . . Must reading for understanding and countering this corrosive trend. --J. P. Moreland, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University A clearly written contribution to an important topic for Christians. We need sharp thinking about hypocrisy and self-deception in order to battle against these all-too-common manifestations of human sinfulness. Spiegel's book is both theoretically and practically valuable. --C. Stephen Evans, Calvin College A probing and thoughtful investigation into the dynamics of hypocrisy and self-deception. It is a valuable guide to the wilderness of the darker side of human motivation. --Dick Keyes, L'Abri Fellowship
