No More Christian Nice Guy

Is there a difference between being nice and being good? Or are they the same thing? They are very different says author and speaker Paul Coughlin. He says that while the former seeks others' approval and avoids conflict at all costs, the latter boldly does the right thing, even if it means stepping on some toes. “Do you stand up to injustice? “A good guy is willing to enter into conflict for redemptive purposes,” adds Coughlin. Listen to this Focus on the Family broadcast as they discuss this topic and his related book, No More Christian Nice Guy: When Being Nice--Instead of Good--Hurts Men, Women and Children.

“Being nice is a vice disguised as a virtue.” -- Paul Coughlin
