Subtle Disease
Each Sunday we will tackle a subtle, often-overlooked sin that Christians tend to tolerate in themselves and others—sins that don't make headlines but quietly erode spiritual health and community life. Inspired by Jerry Bridges' book Respectable Sins: Confronting the Sins We Tolerate, this series will help us examine our hearts and pursue holiness with humility and dependence on grace. Our goal is to shine the light of Scripture on sins we often excuse, minimize, or overlook – and to rediscover the power of the gospel to transform even the most “acceptable” patterns of sin.
