Soft On Sin?

3/26/2019

When traditional Christians say to me, "your God is soft on sin," I think, "I suppose you could see it that way, but he's sure hard on me. Telling me stories of enemy love and foolish trust, encouraging me to follow Jesus in choosing to die than kill. Not to mention praising a way that includes poverty, mourning, and being persecuted for his name's sake. I don't feel judged by 'my God,' but I sure feel an insistent invitation to enter into a story that's bigger than I can imagine and a lot harder to live out than the sin avoidance story."
