How Would You React to Being “Called Out” for Sin?

April 10, 2018

Last week, we discussed why it’s OK to call out other Christians for sin and how to do it.

Now the question becomes, how would you react if another Christian with whom you had a close relationship approached you and told you that they saw an open sin in your life?

How you react to this will tell you much about the condition of your heart. Watch the vlog below to see what your reaction reveals and what to do. If you like it, please share!

How to Keep Other Christians Accountable for Sin

April 5, 2018

In my last post, I discussed why it’s OK to keep other Christians accountable when it comes to sin. I broke down that in our modern Christian culture it has somehow become taboo to “call each other out” for sin and if we don’t do it, we aren’t helping each other grow spiritually.

Since I said we should do it, I wanted to also share how to do it. The following scriptures explain how to do this process effectively.

Two Reasons It’s OK for Christians to “call each other out” for Sin

Confession time: I was saved at age 13 and lived a faithful Christian life; however, somewhere along the way, I began to think that I was better than other Christians because “my sin wasn’t as bad as their sin.” This is a prideful and self-deceiving attitude, but I acquired it nonetheless.

Then, my senior year of college, I had an experience that forever changed me. I was in the car with a guy friend and saw a girl that I absolutely could not stand. I looked at him and said, “Do you see that girl right there? She is terrible…” and went on to list every negative thing I knew about her.

Seven Christian Blogs for Teen Girls

Seven Christian Blogs for Teenage Girls| Transformed4More.com| Teenage Girls| Christian

The number of “Christian” blogs on the internet multiplies everyday. With all the options available, it can be difficult to determine the right ones for you or the teenager in your life. Some seem good on the surface, but after a little digging, one can see the “click-bait” titles lack any real substance or are not Biblically sound.

I know that we cannot possibly cover every issue teens face on this blog, so over the last year, I have sought out other legitimate blogs and sites that are also geared for teenagers that are grounded in the Bible and offer a wealth of sound information for teenagers.

So…here we go!
