Arriving, Pt: 8: "Truthfulness"
from New Life Downtown · host Glenn Packiam
Trust is the currency of relationships; it's what makes community 'work.' But to be trustworthy people, we must be truthful people. Pastor Glenn examines Jesus' call to be the kind of people whose word is so trustworthy that promises are unnecessary. Yet this kind of truthfulness begins with truthfulness before God-- a truthfulness that confess our sin and our propensity to manipulate and exaggerate with our words. Confession opens the way for us to hear God's yes to us: a 'yes' given in Christ, a 'yes' that is always 'yes.'
