In this episode of Equipping You in Grace, Dave Jenkins tackles a growing trend in both secular and Christian culture—the redefinition of sin as psychological dysfunction. Rather than calling sin what it truly is—rebellion against a holy God—modern thought often reframes it as trauma, low self-esteem, or emotional brokenness. While Christians should never minimize genuine suffering, when we trade biblical categories for therapeutic ones, we dilute the gospel and diminish the need for repentance and grace. Topics Covered Include: • How modern psychology and self-help culture have reshaped our understanding of sin • What the Bible teaches about the human heart and moral accountability • Why redefining sin weakens our gospel witness and discipleship • How the Church can offer both compassion and truth in an emotionally driven age • The role of biblical counseling and the local church in true heart transformation ________________________________________ 📖 Related Resources: • Equipping You in Grace Podcast: https://servantsofgrace.org/equipping-you-in-grace-2/ • Articles from Servants of Grace: https://servantsofgrace.org • Theology for Life Magazine: https://servantsofgrace.org/theologyforlife
