Thanks, I needed that!

"...All day we will see the evidence of sin in others around us. It is inevitable, is it not? How are we to react to such sin?..."

Really, I can't be reminded of THIS often enough.

The "Yuck Factor"...

...is something we're all familir with--Tim Challis and Al Mohler help us think Biblically about it.

A Recurring Theme ~ My Sin

Pulpit Magazine has posted a review of Jerry Bridges' newest book, "Respectable Sins". I posted another review earlier HERE.

I'm really NOT trying to "hammer" on this topic/theme, but it keeps coming to me, so here's what jumped out at me this morning while reading the Pulpit review:

“Stepping forward to accept my place as a sinner in need of the gospel each day drives a dagger into my self-righteous heart and prepares me to face up to and accept the reality of the sin that still dwells within me”.

For obvious reasons, I'm looking forward to reading this book more than before. I even searched for it while scouring the bookstores at the recent NANC conference!

Sins We Tolerate...

...is the topic of Jerry Bridges' newest book.

I have greatly appreciated and benefited from his writing since way back in the 80's when I was first introduced to "Pursuit of Holiness". In recent years I've read "Trusting God-Even When Life Hurts", "Transforming Grace" and, "The Discipline of Grace-God's Role and Our Role in the Pursuit of Holiness".

Here's a review of the book at Desiring God.
