Shades of Gray

I got this free book from: Blogging for Books 

We live in a society now where shades of gray is actually acceptable now. The world is no longer black and white. We justify our actions now through shades of gray. "Oh, that one ice cream bar won't hinder me. I just exercised." "The doctor won't know if I ate that one chocolate bar. I'll just work harder next week."

Hence, the little white lies that spread. In "Every Single Women's Battle", Shannon Ethridge talks about these areas of grayness that hits almost every woman through the sexual sins of our society. This book explains that even though we aren't physically involved in anything, our minds can still commit adultery through our fantasy imaginations.
