Stop Selling Tickets | If We Accept, Tolerate, or Let Sins In, They Can Take Over

Summary: We unpack the problem of fans selling their tickets to the other team…and how this parallels being okay with a little bit of sin entering in. This week's conversation centers on a fascinating parallel between sports fandom and faith: Stop Selling Your Tickets.The episode is inspired by a recent story where Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid expressed frustration after Sixers fans sold their home playoff tickets to New York Knicks fans in 2024, leading to a "home" game that felt like an away game. He's imploring Sixers fans not to do the same thing for this year's series against the Knicks.Key Discussion Points:The Ticket Dilemma: Why do fans sell their playoff seats? We unpack how this betrayal negatively affects the team's "home-court advantage."The Spiritual Parallel: The show explores how this mirrors our spiritual lives. Just as those who sell their tickets don't think it's a big deal to let a few Knicks fans in, we often compromise our values or allow small "sins" to enter our lives, and by doing so, they can take over. We can't dismiss, overlook, tolerate, or accept sin in our lives or the lives of other believers. We have to be willing to call it what it is and pursue holiness.Find out more about UNPACKIN' it Ministries: HERESubscribe to our YouTube channel! HEREClick HERE to support UNPACKIN' it.
