i – The Root of Sin Exposed – Since the Garden of Eden sin has ravaged people’s lives, leaving behind a plethora of troubling problems such as anxieties, fears, insecurities, confusion, unbelief, bitterness, sexual hang–ups, and even addictions. Most people look for answers in all the wrong places.

They ought to look within. They ought to look at i. i is the “self–life.” i is the core of the fallen human nature. i is the realm where sin grows and flourishes. i: the root of sin exposed unravels the mystery of the corrupted human nature, and convincingly proves that all of man’s struggles with sin can be traced to the pride–driven “self–life” that emerges from it.

Rather than relying on trendy quick–fixes, this book digs deeply into the treasures of Scripture to provide struggling believers everything they need to deal with their problems at the root level: the inescapable, ever–present i.
