In this message from the Abide series, the church is invited into the transforming practice of confession as a vital rhythm in a Rule of Life that helps believers grow closer to God and one another.

Rooted in 1 John 1:8–10 and James 5:16, Terrence’s message teaches that confession is not about shame or punishment, but about truth-telling, agreeing with God about our sin so that forgiveness, healing, and life change can take place.

Confession is presented as a personal, communal, and relational practice, essential to spiritual maturity and freedom. Through Scripture, theology, and the example of David’s prayer in Psalm 51, the message shows that honest confession opens the door to restoration, deeper intimacy with God, and authentic community.

Where in your life do you need to bring what’s hidden into the light so God can bring healing and freedom?

This Tuesday, will you practice confession intentionally with us? Trusting that God meets us with mercy, renewal, and joy when we bring our sin fully into the light.
