Somebody told me I make Jesus cool! But it's not true--I can't make Jesus cool; all I can do is tell you who he is and what he has done for me and in me. And that's pretty cool.

When we do things we know we shouldn't, when we try to do good and can't, and when our actions don't reflect our best intentions, we like to make excuses. Maybe we'll explain how it wasn't really our fault. Maybe we'll blame the Devil. Maybe we'll just back out and claim we never really meant to make it happen.

Excuses might make us feel better in the moment, but change--good, righteous, permanent change--can only spring from accountability.

Men should be the breadwinners, right? No man of God would let his wife work while he stayed home with the kids, right? the Bible says men should work and women belong in the home, right?

Don't let yourself get caught in the lies of the world, or of pharisaical christians. You are accountable to God for what happens in your home, so what does that mean for our daily lives?
