Preacher: Jeremy Herbert
Text: Genesis 3:7-11
Theme: Shame and the Need to Escape it
Notes:
When we deal with shame biblically, we can break free from the cycles of alienation, fear and escape
Shame- Feelings associated with (but not limited to) failure, public exposure, disgrace, embarrassment, social rejection, ridicule and dishonor.
“Shame is the deep sense that you are unacceptable because of something you did, something done to you, or something associated with you. you feel exposed and humiliated.” -Ed Welch
- Alienation: we feel like an outcast or outsider.
- Exposure: we feel naked and exposed.
- Contamination: we feel dirty or unclean.
