A curriculum engaging students in spiritual formation, helping them to diagnose the sins, remove barriers, and replace them with new habits of thought and feeling.

Many Christians often have a strong sense of justification but a very thin sense of how to grow in a life of discipleship. While the goal of the Christian life is to become like Jesus, inside and out, something gets in the way. Bad habits, attitudes, dispositions all hold us back. The new curriculum The Seven Deadly Sins: A Survival Guide engages students in a process of spiritual formation, helping them to diagnose the sins (envy, sloth, avarice, vainglory, anger, lust, and gluttony), remove the barriers, and replace them with corresponding new habits of thought and feeling.
