HALF TRUTHS
Half-Truths- they sound so familiar we think they are probably in the Bible… when, in actuality, they are just made-up cliches…or Hallmark theology… or Facebook fodder… or the “nothing” we say when we don’t know what to say…
And we are talking about these because sometimes a half-truth is just as bad as no-truth…
A chair that is half a chair is not half as good as a chair (especially if the other half is a cactus!) it’s no good. Some of these phrases have done damage, caused pain or turned people from God.
With the book “Half-Truths” by Adam Hamilton we are going to start the conversation explore
“Everything happens for a reason.”
“God helps those who help themselves.”
“God won’t give you more than you can handle”
“God says it, I believe it, that settles it.”
“Love the sinner, hate the sin.”
