The Unaddressed Sin (Thursdays are for Health)

51vgqldEQML“There’s an unaddressed sin undermining church leaders today – one we’ve come to accept as normal, even though it has the potential to completely derail the work God has called us to.

The sin is gluttony, plain and simple. So prevalent that it has become a cultural norm, gluttony can be easily overlooked and accepted as a normal part of life. You may not think you have a sin relationship with food and, sure, yours may not be as severe as the next guy’s but if you are a church leader in America, the odds are not in your favor.”

– Nelson Searcy, Steve Reynolds & Jennifer Dykes Henson

The above quote is from p. 72 of The Healthy Renegade Pastor: Abandoning Average in Your Health and Wellness.
