About this episode

This episode discusses how believers can overcome guilt from sin through confession and the grace of Christ.

What do you do when guilt weighs heavy on your heart after sinning? Do you readily confess to God through Christ, or do you try to manage and hide your sin while spiraling deeper into poor decisions? First John 2:1-6 reveals that believers don't have to linger in guilt or try to manage their sin alone. You have a righteous advocate who stands with you and an atoning sacrifice whose blood covers every sin. Stop lingering in guilt and start living in grace. What sin are you trying to manage instead of confessing?
