Scars (Week 1)

October 9:  Natural Scars  
Notes / Podcast

There are two basic types of scars people get. There’s the scars that we give each other. We could call these the scars of moral evil, where there’s an agent that creates the evil that happens. But there’s also a second type of scars, the ones that just happen. No one was trying to hurt you; no one really did anything; it just happened. We could call these the natural scars because where there’s sin there’s scars: from natural disasters to disease, from aches and pains of hard work to the heartache that comes from a death. Sin is real so bad things happen, and when they do it leaves a scar.
