Hello, friend. We live in a world that is constantly trying to tell us that we’re basically good people—that if we just try a little harder or think a little more positively, we can fix whatever is broken inside of us. But if we’re honest with ourselves and we look into the mirror of God’s Word, we see a very different picture.
In this video, ‘You and I Are Not Okay,’ I want to talk about a reality that isn’t very popular but is absolutely essential to understand: our inherited sin nature. Just as we inherit our parents’ eyes or the shape of our chin, we’ve also inherited a spiritual contamination that goes all the way back to the beginning. We aren’t just ‘a little off’; biblically speaking, we are as ‘bad off’ as we can be on our own. But don’t let that discourage you—because it’s only when we realize we aren’t okay that we can truly appreciate the One who came to make us right.
