Rooted Prayer Podcast
We are looking in this blog/podcast at the petition in the Lord's Prayer of "Forgive us our sins".
For some of us, these are uncomfortable words to pray, they imply that we have sinned and all our natural self-justification and defensiveness rises up. We are prone to excuse ourselves or deflect blame, just like Adam and Eve did. Thankfully, the petition Jesus gave us to pray is "Forgive us our sins" not "Forgive us IF we have sinned." He's already aware that we have, He already sees and knows, and He is inviting us out of the shame and hiddenness! In this podcast we explore how holiness has gotten a bad rap by our culture. It's been distorted to become a rigid, joyless, severe lifestyle that nobody is interested in pursuing. If anything, our culture mocks holiness, and we have been intimidated by this mockery to retreat from honouring and pursuing this virtue. |
But God is holy, and the scriptures speak of the beauty of holiness.... so there is something here to reclaim, a true perspective on the worth, even the JOY of holiness!
