We, as Christians, think that we need to be a certain way to be in line with the life that Christ led, but it doesn’t change the fact that we are also human, having the same temptations as any other person. One challenge I find amongst believers and non-believers alike has to do with transparency, being completely open with one another about the types of sin we struggle with. We leave these sins in the dark where no light can shine through thinking that we can handle it on our own. Sometimes, we think that if no one knows about our darkest sins, we won’t need to repent of it.
