Digging Out of a Little Sin
Welcome back to another episode of Mornings with the Monticues! In today's episode, we dive deep into the importance of addressing even the "little sins" in our lives, and how they can lead to more significant disobedience. We discuss the story of Achan and the consequences of hidden sins on not just one's own life but also on marriages and families.
Today’s Bible Verses:
Full Devotional: Joshua 7:1-26
Main Verse: “God says, Joshua, stand up. What are you doing down on your face? Israel has sinned, for they have violated my covenant, which I commanded them to keep. They have taken some of the devoted things they have stolen. They have lied. They have put them with their own possessions. This is why the Israelites cannot stand against their enemies. They turn their backs and run because they have been made liable to destruction. I will not be with you anymore unless you destroy whatever among you is devoted to destruction.” (Joshua 7:10-12)
Today’s Questions:
1. What steps will we take to stay honest with each other about money, friends, recreational activities? And what areas have we been less than fully honest?
2. What effect might hidden sins have on our marriage if we continue doing them for several months or even years?
3. What no big deal sins are we willing to overlook in our relationship? If we continue doing them, what or who might then bring them to light?
