Accidental Pharisees

Avoiding Pride, Exclusivity, and the Other Dangers of Overzealous Faith

By: Larry Osborne

Narrated by: Tommy Cresswell

Zealous faith can have a dangerous, dark side. While recent calls for radical Christians have challenged many to be more passionate about their faith, the down side can be a budding arrogance and self-righteousness that “accidentally” sneaks into our outlook.

In Accidental Pharisees, bestselling author Larry Osborne diagnoses nine of the most common traps that can ensnare Christians on the road to a deeper life of faith. Rejecting attempts to turn the call to follow Christ into a new form of legalism, he shows you how to avoid the temptations of pride, exclusivity, legalism, and hypocrisy,

Larry reminds us that attempts to fan the flames of full-on discipleship and call people to Christlikeness should be rooted in love and humility. Christians stirred by calls to radical discipleship, but unsure how to respond, will be challenged and encouraged to develop a truly Christlike zeal for God.

So convicting!

Such a great book every Christian should read! Very convicting and challenging to my faith and how I view others

Wow

I am lovingly chastised by this book. I believe I was led to this book at the necessary season in my life. Thank you Mr. Osborne.

Great book!

I will recommend this book to many people. Very wise words indeed. Thank you! Peace :)

Another good book

I attend North Coast Church and I hear stuff like this all the time from Larry. It is a good reminder that we can all fall into this trap. It’s a good read.
