243: Things I Will Not Keep Apologizing For — Talking About Sin

In church, people enjoy hearing about hope, grace, forgiveness, and new beginnings. However, there is one word most people avoid because it is uncomfortable: "sin." Somewhere along the way, Christians have replaced this word with softer language—"mistakes," "struggles," or "brokenness." While these words share similar meanings, they do not carry the same weight; after all, sin is something we all possess. Pastor Adam and Steph define the differences between shame and conviction as a result of sin, emphasizing that people deserve truth that hasn't been watered down. *Scripture referenced in this episode: Romans 3:23, Hebrews 4:12, 1 John 1:8, 2 Corinthians 7:10, John 8:32
