A Clean Mirror Series

Contributed by Doug Johnston on Jun 7, 2001

If we are to imitate Christ as Paul asks us to in 5:1, we must keep our lives clean by allowing nothing to dirty the mirror that is our life so we may reflect Christ clearly.

Paul tells these people to follow (5:1), or mimic, God as they demonstrate a worthy walk (4:1) that should be part of every Christian’s lifestyle. We must mirror God’s ideals in daily living.

Coming Clean

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 8, 2025

Psalm 32 is a good introduction to the idea of confession. It’s a primer on penitence, the ABC’s of contrition. It teaches us why we should confess our sins, how to do so, and what we get out of it.

We live in a confessional culture. It’s been called the "Urge to Purge." Or even "Psychic Bulimia." I can remember back when Phil Donahue was shocking. But these days the things people have to display to get on Jerry Springer or Sally Jessie Raphael hardly raise an eyebrow in ...read more
