Yet, I would be willing to assert that this monumental problem is, at least partially, due to a worship culture that is skewed unequally toward God’s love and acceptance rather than our desperate depravity. A culture that screams “come as you are” yet whispers “leave changed.””

Good quote…I was looking for the “tweet” button. ;)

“Our repentance should turn to praise when it is authentic and framed in a Biblical way.” I think this points to the necesity of the assurance/forgivness that follows confession. If we leave the congregation feeling sorrowful in their sins, we miss the big picture of the gospel. That’s the whole message of 1 John 1:9 — If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
