For author B. Ward Powers, what Christ taught about the most in the New Testament was greed and the answer to greed. Written for the many Christians who want to follow and obey the teaching of Jesus Christ, Powers pens “The Sin We Treat as a Virtue” (published by Trafford Publishing), which emphasizes on Christs’ warning against the sin of greed and points readers to a better lifestyle.

From a careful and thoughtful reading of the gospels, this book, as what Powers describes, is special and different since it draws attention to all that Jesus says about greed and it points out how much of modern life is based on the motivation of greed. Published in 2013, “The Sin We Treat as a Virtue” shows how Jesus teaches clearly what humans should be doing instead.
“We must not be misled by the wrong value that so many of our contemporaries are putting on wealth and possessions - on things of every kind. Christ teaches us to judge by a different set of values,” the author tells.
An excerpt from the book:
Jesus gives this warning, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed! Heaping up possessions is not what life is all about!” (Luke 12:15.)
