414. The Freedom You Long For Series (Week 3): Shame and Vulnerability // Timothy Seow

The City SG Podcast

“If Eden represents a loving relationship with God and others, then hell is helpless isolation, and the church is where we find connection and acceptance.” - @timothyshaun Timothy continued our sermon series “The Freedom We Long For”, with a sharing on Shame and Vulnerability, where he discussed the destructive cycle of shame. Sharing from Genesis 3, The Garden of Eden and Luke 8, the parable of the woman with the issue of blood, Tim shared how the wounds we pick up form the narrative of a shameful identity. This is reinforced by our helpless isolation, but when we encounter Christ who dignifies us, we can find healing. God is our pursuer, who asks us “where are you?” when we hide away in shame, and invites us to come to Him vulnerably and experience this reality through embodied acts in community.
