Respectable Sins

from Church Folks · host Tyler Creel

We love to call out the big, obvious sins in our culture—but what about the subtle ones we’ve learned to tolerate in ourselves? In this episode, we unpack the convicting message of Jerry Bridges’ book Respectable Sins and confront the everyday attitudes—like pride, discontentment, gossip, and impatience—that quietly erode our walk with Christ. With Scripture as our guide, we’ll explore how the gospel empowers us to take sin seriously, repent regularly, and pursue holiness not from guilt but from grace. This one’s a mirror—prepare to be both challenged and encouraged.
