Do we need to talk about sin?

One of the other pastors at Central drew my attention to the article linked below. Sin is not something that we like to talk about. We seem to really like forgiveness and grace, but who wants to have to face up to sin? Back in the early 70s, a psychiatrist Karl  Menninger wrote a book titled, Whatever Became of Sin? He wrote out a concern that by labeling sin as a cultural taboo or a social blunder was doing noted damage to people. Dr. Menninger was not, at that point at least, a follower of the Lord Jesus, but he saw the need for people to take sin seriously.

I believe God's grace and forgiveness are incredible. We should talk about them much, but we also need to talk about sin. Sin is a reality. Please read the article and share with me any of your thoughts.

Why Doesn't Anybody Talk about Sin Anymore?
