Not the Way It's Supposed to Be

In this book, Cornelius Plantinga Jr. revives the ancient doctrine of sin for modern readers.

He describes how sin corrupts what is good, its parasitic nature, and its relationship to folly and addiction.

Plantinga uses a wide range of sources, including literature, films, and current events, to illustrate the dynamics of sin.

He emphasizes that sin is a culpable and personal affront to God, and it distorts human character, corrupts human capacities, and causes misery.

The book also discusses the social and structural aspects of moral evil and how sin affects our understanding of grace.
