The Power of Trusting God & Others With Our Compulsive Sin (Part 2) with Bill Thrall
In this episode, author and leader, Bill Thrall returns to share more about how shame fuels sin. We discover how we were always made to live in relationship with God and with one another. Yet when we are hurting, we hide, and in the darkness, we sin. This sin always has an impact on our ability to connect with people around us and on our relationship with God.
Being able to analyze our own tendency to hide when we are hurt through behaviors like judging, controlling, minimizing, or defending can help us see what areas of our life we still need to entrust to God. If you are exhausted and feeling hopeless trying to manage your sin, we invite you to listen and risk believing that Christ had you and all your pain in mind at the cross.
