Worldliness is comprised of six chapters written by members of the Sovereign Grace team and edited by C.J. Mahaney.  They cover worldliness in relation to the media, music, stuff, and clothes.  (Ladies there is an appendix on modesty which you can view here.  Using it would go a long way to serving your brothers in Christ.)

This little book is packed with conviction, and grace.  It is gracious conviction.  I am worldly.  Now I am better equipped to see it and battle it.  I plead with you – read it!

Today, the greatest challenge facing American evangelicals is not persecution from the world, but seduction by the world.

The greater our difference from the world, the more true our testimony for Christ – and the more potent our witness against sin.

Jesus Christ is most important.  We must fight worldliness because it dulls our affections for Christ and distracts our attention from Christ.  Worldliness is so serious because Christ is so glorious.
