It is reported in the headlines, confessed in the pulpits, and hidden in the pews in churches around the world. The seduction of God's people by the deceiver is a tale as old as the garden, but we are always surprised when it happens. We must realize that Satan is a lion on the prowl and we are his prey. Beth writes with a passion fueled by the Biblical warnings of the schemes of Satan's seductive activity and the broken-hearted concern of a teacher who receives countless letters from repentant Christians limping on the road to finding restoration. Delivering dire warnings to Christians to safeguard themselves against Satan's attacks, Beth also reveals how you can know if someone is vulnerable. Beth writes, 'We, Christ's church, are in desperate need of developing His heart and mind in issues like these.' She fears that often God is far more merciful than the Body of Christ is with the deeply repentant and those desperate to find their way home. When Godly People Do Ungodly Things will be a guide to authentic repentance and restoration.

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Beth Moore has emerged as a popular speaker and writer in Christian circles, her Bible studies embraced by church groups across the country. Her latest full-length book, When Godly People Do Ungodly Things: Finding Authentic Restoration in the Age of Seduction, holds to her trademark conversational writing style (including the overuse of italics and hyperbole). Its message is disappointingly simplistic, choosing such easy targets as Internet pornography as evidence for satanic seduction, and even using diagrams of stick figures to prove her points. A New Voice in New Thought?

I just finished the study, Why Godly People do Ungodly Things, and it was life altering for me. I felt that God had challenged me to move another step in my journey of trusting God. It was the first Beth Moore study that I had been involved in and I am very interested in reading more of her books.

Format:Hardcover
Beth Moore opens up every believer to the truth that 'it can happen to you.' She tells quite plainly of secenarios which could cause a child of God to fall into the trap of seduction. She gives godly guidance on how to get back on the road to recovery from a fall into seductive behavior. Her guidance is scriptually based and her zeal to help the afflicted can be felt throughout the book.
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
She gets into what we all need to be dealing with and addresses it from a powerful biblical perspective. In this age of compromise and the entertainment industry driven elimination of values, we all need to wake up and get serious about what is going on in ourselves and all around us. I just saw her interview on James Robison's program, along with her husband. She comes across as very real and sincere. I don't have a clue what the 2 people who wrote the negative reviews read or where they are coming from. I hope they find what they are looking for.

What a shame
I have never read such a poorly written book. There was no point to anything. "The devil made me do it" was her main focus for the first half of the book and the second half... Read more

Too much title, not enough substance
The book fails to live up to it's title. It never really discusses "ungodly" things, beyond the author's one-time lapse into the use of a few swear words. Read more

Highly Recommended Reading
First, a word about the audience this book addresses.
1. It does not address carnality. Sinnners are already lost - they are not Godly.
