Off the Record

Week One
What we keep “off the record” doesn’t protect us, it costs us. In this sermon, we unpack the lie of “I’m fine” and how hidden sin leads to shame, hiding, and loss. Walking through Genesis 3, we see that sin always begins as a truth issue before it becomes a behavior issue, and that God’s question “Where are you?” is not about exposure, but invitation.
 
This message is not about condemnation or behavior modification. It’s about freedom, healing, and honesty through the gospel of Jesus Christ and biblical community. God does not heal what we hide. He heals what we bring into the light. Scriptures referenced include Genesis 3, 1 John 1:9, Hebrews 12:2, Psalm 139, and 1 John 2:16.
 
If this message speaks to you, take a moment this week to ask: What is it? What’s underneath it? What’s it costing me? You’re not being chased to be shamed, you’re being pursued to be healed.
