Sin, Shame, and What’s at Stake

Sin brings in its wake a barrage of emotional consequences and external damages. If the sin has long-term effects, we can feel substantial guilt and often shame for our failings and selfishness. This same thing can happen if the sin is habitual or uniquely toxic. How do you heal from shame, overcome guilt, and rightly order your life to avoid despair and frustration? Today, we discuss how men either become weak or foolishly arrogant in response to the shame they experience. We want to make sure you understand the difference between guilt and shame, the benefits they can bring to your life, as well as tactics to consistently move forward. We do our best to tread with dignity discussing the interior lives of the men brought up in the article but are honest about the falsehoods that they espouse. Learn about these 4 enemies and how to apply the practices we discuss. In addition, today we get to answer a question from a listener who asks about balancing his pursuit of a high-performance professional job and raising a family. Today we discuss a great plan to not only improve and become like Christ this Lent, but also a strategy to continue as a new man this Easter and beyond. We discuss man's need for temptation and how Satan gains entrance into our lives. We unpack why you need to know the tactics of Satan, how understanding this can provide clarity in your lives, and how you can be battle-ready to protect yourself against his attacks.
