Love all. Serve all.

Defining sin…

[Sin] means self-centeredness, the acorn from which it all grows. Individually, that means ‘I live for myself, for my own glory and happiness, and I’ll work for your happiness if it helps me.’ Communally, self-centeredness is destroying peace and justice in the world, tearing the net of interwovenness, the fabric of humanity. ~ Tim Keller

There’s a great article in today’s issue of USA Today asking if the notion of sin has been lost. The article quotes some people I really admire like Tim Keller and David Kinnaman. In light of the upcoming Easter weekend, several notable pastors and leaders in the Christian community chime in on whether most people believe sin exists and what exactly the word refers to.

The article is a little long, but I encourage you to read it. I’d love to hear what you think.

Peace. Out.
