Sin is Behovely - A thoughtful article by Eric Dorman

This sermon series explores and unpacks the scripture’s vision of darkness. Often understood as sin, injustice, hypocrisy, and selfishness that lead to shame, ennui, fear, and broken community. Jesus is not afraid of the darkness and neither are his friends. How do we face a dark world, sin around us, and in us? This is a freedom message of hope for a world looking for light, and Jesus’ work to fill the darkness with his love. It just takes a flickering flame to chase away the darkness.
