The Problem with Being Ugly
Our culture is big on the value of self-esteem. We’re encouraged to see ourselves as beautiful, intelligent, and perfect. But the Bible doesn’t concede to such dishonest self- flattery. Instead, God’s Word delivers a true appraisal of our shortcomings before a holy God. On this edition of Focal Point, Mike Fabarez turns to a passage from Colossians that should encourage us not because it bolsters our self-image, but rather because it details how God loves us in spite of our flaws.
