What comes to your mind when you hear the word “confession”? Is confession a dreary command to be slavishly followed or a liberating grace to cherish? How much do you know about your faith and why you believe what you believe? Consider this your invitation to examine your faith and experience the spiritual discipline of confession. Study guide included.
Paul Alan Smith
is a devoted advocate of the plea of the American Restoration Movement, a 19th century call to unite all disciples of Jesus under simple apostolic teachings. He has served congregations of the Churches of Christ for over thirty years in several capacities, including instructing in the Religion Program at Eastern New Mexico University, Portales, N.M. He received bachelor's and master's degrees from Abilene Christian University, (Abilene, Texas), and holds the Doctor the Ministry degree from Fuller Theological Seminary (Pasadena, California).
”Confession is a grace given by God to humans so that they can live their lives rejoicing in his presence and sustained by his forgiveness. A life lived in the absence of confession is a life lived in the absence of God."
