Bad Habits

Book Cover & Preview Text
Actions and thoughts which we practice all the time become habitual and ingrained in us. When those habits conform to socially acceptable behavioral patterns and yield positive outcomes, they can be referred to as good habits.
On the other hand, when our habits lead to unacceptable behavior and yield negative outcomes, they can be classified as bad habits. In the world we live in today, society has begun to accept certain biblically unacceptable practices as okay due to the expansion of the definition of a person’s rights and freedoms of expression and behavior.
Scenarios such as those listed in Galatians 5:19-21 are no longer frowned upon by modern society: adultery, fornication, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, reveling, etc. Men and women have become desensitized to these ills, actively participating in some of them, viewing them as tolerable, or turning a blind eye in order not to be labeled ‘politically incorrect’.
These practices, and others such as them, have become habits for a lot of people; bad habits! Bad habits can be overcome by consistently thinking positive, resolving to do good to others, protecting our relationships through honesty, calmness, and consideration, and by surrounding ourselves with Christian mentors, motivators, and prayer partners.

About the Book
Christ-Led Rebound Series: Bad Habits is the second in a series of proposed Christian booklets that addresses what we should all do to overcome the negative effects of poor habitual choices in our lives.
It defines bad habits, and explains why it is a strategy of the devil. It goes on to tell us from a scriptural standpoint what we must do in order to rebound from the yoke of bad habits, and how we can keep our new-found victories intact.
Dr. Kene D. Ewulu concludes the booklet with a brief glossary of subject-relevant definitions for the young Christian.
