Sin distorts our view of reality. It isolates us. It kills our joy.
But by God’s grace, we confess. We recognize our sin and bring it to the feet of Jesus where it’s been dealt with.
By God’s His Spirit, we repent. We know we are powerless to overcome sin on our own so we ask God to change us.
And with God’s people, we make this the norm. We welcome correction. We embrace confrontation. We help each other get back on the path of following Jesus together.
