Strawn, Journal of Spiritual Formation & Soul Care, Fall 2009) This is not intended as a scholarly work, but as an engaging challenge to all Christians to do one of the more important things we are supposed to do: examine our consciences and hold ourselves and one another accountable for the faith that is in us.

(Library Journal, October 1, 2008) Rich in serious (but not solemn) insight and advice. (Library Journal, October 2008) "Michael Mangis's book offers more than just diagnosis of our signature sins--it offers help and hope in the areas where we need it most. Of particular value is Mangis's thoughtful integration of psychology and spirituality as it relates to the subject of sin--something that is much-needed!" (Ruth Haley Barton, cofounder and president, Transforming Center, and author of Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership) "Mangis says he wants to induce excitement on our Christian journey, not guilt or gloom. That is difficult to do in a book about sin, but he succeeds by helping us to recognize that sin is far more complex and grace is far more dynamic than we might have thought. By constantly reminding us that one size doesn't fit all, Mangis draws on Scripture and the Christian tradition, anecdotes from his own life and his practice as a

4 psychotherapist, and a reservoir of helpful analogies to engage readers in an eminently practical and thoughtful examination of their own spiritual health with prescriptive suggestions for hearts that are prone to wander. What I found encouraging was his ability to integrate insights from the field of psychology with an honesty and humility that refrains from making Christianity obsequious to the social sciences." (Dennis Okholm, professor of theology, Azusa Pacific University and author of Monk Habits for Everyday People) "I often hear people distinguish between wisdom and knowledge. Michael W. Mangis brings the two together--in his personal life, in his teaching and now in this remarkable book, Signature Sins. Read this book. It is deeply informative, spiritually inspiring, written with clarity, filled with practical questions for self-reflection and saturated with an awareness of God's grace." (Mark R. McMinn, professor of psychology, George Fox University, and author of Sin and Grace in Christian Counseling) "Michael Mangis has provided an excellent resource for soul-care professionals and laity. Signature Sins is honest, comprehensive and accessible. Few writers could offer the blending of psychological scholarship and theological sophistication in a style that is warm and approachable." (Gary W. Moon, executive editor, Conversations and author of Falling for God) "Mangis is a subtle prophet-sage, confronting our sin while gently steering us between the shoals of legalistic sin management and psychological excuse making. His book is marked by beautiful contrasts: deep but simple; ancient but fresh; it is good integration that takes the Bible seriously. The author accomplishes a lot in a small space, combining practical spiritual direction with the insights of a Christian dynamic therapy. This will be useful for laypersons and pastors, counselors and their counselees, directors and their friends." (Eric L. Johnson, director, Society for Christian Psychology and author of Foundations for Soul Care) "Drawing wisdom from the worlds of both psychotherapy and spiritual direction, this introductory overview of vital disciplines for the Christian's inner life is clear, strong and robustly down-to-earth. Especially salutary is Mangis's stress on finding and fighting one's own core sin." (J. I. Packer, professor of theology, Regent College and author of Knowing God) "After embracing Christ's death as paying the penalty for our sins, Christians embark on a life of discipleship and growth by which we can experience increasing freedom from the bondage and power of sin. Signature Sins offers us insights from Scripture, tradition and contemporary psychology that illuminate that path of growth, helping us to see the patterns of our failings and offering us possibilities for increasing freedom."

Jones, provost, Wheaton College, and author of Ex-Gays? and the God's Design for Sex book series) About the Author Michael Mangis is a professor of psychology at Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois. He is also a practicing psychologist and cofounder of the Center for Rural Psychology in Elburn, Illinois.

6 SIGNATURE SINS: TAMING OUR WAYWARD HEARTS BY MICHAEL MANGIS PDF Finally--a safe place to talk about sin. The topic of sin in general has been safe for a while. But here, guided by psychologist Michael Mangis, we get specific by learning to know ourselves and our signature sins--the individual and specific patterns of sin in our life that affect our thoughts, actions and relationships. In these pages, the author empathetically and honestly reflects on the ways we manage our behavior to hide our sin and ignore the true poverty of our hearts. But until we deal with the root of our sin, we will be ruled and fooled by it, and miss the freedom Christ died to bring. Exploring common forms of sin and then discovering how our own temperament, culture, family and gender affect the way those sins manifest themselves in our lives will lead us to a place of real honesty with ourselves, God and others. But the book doesn't stop there; it also shows ways to combat our sin so that we can change our hearts, not just our behavior. Sin is serious and specific, and it doesn't go away on its own. But here is serious--and safe--help for facing sin and finding freedom in Christ.

A Challenging and Compassionate Call to Holiness By Amazon Customer Signature Sins In my Christian life and ministry I often find myself asking this question about sin: Where do I need repentance? Where do I need healing? Am I really growing in my relationship with God - or am I just putting a positive spin on my inner life? How do I help the people I minister to confront their sin in a way that leads to life? Signature Sins provides helpful insights into both holiness and wholeness. It takes sin seriously as human rebellion against a good and just God. It also acknowledges that sinners have also been sinned against, and that our emotional wounds can create particular patterns of sin that are unique to each individual. Dr. Mangis applies Biblical truth, the classical vices and virtues, and spiritual disciplines to the emotional and spiritual life of human beings. He does this in a way that helps us to overcome our blindness to our own sin and to find both healing and a path to holiness. The book includes after each chapter thought-provoking questions for reflection and discussion. I profited from it in my personal reading and expect it would be an excellent tool for a book group. I plan to read it again as my Lenten discipline. A compassionate and insightful book that will encourage true holiness both in ourselves and those we serve. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Insightful and Helpful for Personal and Spiritual Growth By E. Nicole Saylor As a doctoral student in clinical psychology, I had the privilege of seeing this book in its many forms as it went through the writing and editing process. The end result is a text that incorporates the rich domains of spiritual direction and holiness with a psychologically sensitive and informed perspective. Drawing on decades of experience as a professor, therapist, mentor, and spiritual seeker himself, Dr. Mangis brings together his multiple domains of knowledge to help the reader understand her personal cyclical struggles with sins. The reader gains an understanding of how personal psychological and cultural factors such as family of origin, biology, temperament, ethnicity, etc. contribute to and help to maintain each of our own personal struggles. He exposes subtleties of sinfulness and struggle that, on most days, we would all like to ignore or avoid. However, this is not a doom and gloom expose of how utterly wretched we all are. Few of us need reminders to feel poorly of ourselves. Rather, Dr. Mangis, provides hope for personal and communal spiritual growth by pointing the reader toward spiritual disciplines that reshape, relieve, and heal. His suggestions are realistic and aspirational without being overwhelming. I recommend this as a fantastic read for those in the helping professions, ministry, or who are interested in people and how we work (or don't). Most will find it a well-balanced, thoughtful integration of faith and psychology and find insights about how to address the whole self, including spirituality. 0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
