About this book

A unique angle on the problem of idolatry and how it affects Christians, particularly in our contemporary culture of numerous hidden idols.

The uniqueness of this book comes in the metaphor of sipping saltwater. Even as Christians, we 'sip' on idols such as money, relationships, careers, sex, food, human approval…the list is endless. These things promise to satisfy us—to quench our thirst. In the end, however, they fail to do so and leave us thirstier than we were before drinking them.

This book enables readers to identify their own source(s) of saltwater and explains how ...

Endorsements

Our lives get more busy yet more empty. Steve gets this—he gets us. He describes what you feel, why you feel like that, and walks with you to a better way. And, somehow, he does it in a way that makes you feel heard, even befriended. Within two pages you will be drawn in by Steve's honesty and how he seems to speak to you. Then you read the entire book—hope rising with each chapter. Since one chapter will be uniquely yours, you will double back, re-read that chapter, and act on that hope.

Dr Edward T. Welch Counselor and faculty member at the Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation (CCEF)

This book has been so good for my foolish, thirsty heart that so easily defaults to drinking deadly "saltwater". With great warmth, honesty and insight Steve exposes and redirects our hearts to the Lord Jesus, the only one who can and does quench our thirst and bring joy to our hearts.

Andrea Trevenna Women’s worker at St Nicholas Sevenoaks, Kent; author of The Heart of Singleness.

A powerfully real and personal book that informs as much as it moves, and challenges as much as it gives hope in the God who gives many gifts.

Mark Meynell senior associate pastor, All Soul’s Langham Place, author of Cross Examined and Quarentia blog

(Review written for 'Sipping Saltwater')

I have had Sipping Saltwater in my possession for several years and have come back to read it several times. There are SO many good nuggets in this book and it is the type you can read a few pages at a time and pray through the day as God reveals further truth in your heart. I really appreciate Steve’s candidness in this book and so many examples and scenario’s. It has been a joy to read and convicting for my soul time. It helps me draw closer to God And examine my life every time I read it. Bravo ...
