The Cry for Authenticity

“Christians are hypocrites!!!”
How often do we hear this phrase?
The sad truth of the matter is, YES! Alot of Christians are hypocrites and live a double life!
They come to church every Sunday, they clock in, they do their Christians duties and once service ends they are “off-duty” per say. They come in with their sins and baggage and past hurts, and they are guarded. They act as if everything is fine and dandy, so afraid that their double life outside of church gets exposed.
Are you living a compartmentalized Christianity?
Do you belong to a church where everyone puts up a false front of perfection?
What if the church could be a place where we can come and be our true selves, with our struggles and flaws, yet truly be loved and accepted just as we are? Isn’t that the command of God anyway, to boast in our weakness so that His grace may abound?
The church is not meant to be a museum with a collection of good people, it is a hospital for the sick and broken. If you are convicted, if you have been a “hypocrite” Christian all your life…… we are not here to judge but to help. It’s ok if you are struggling with sexual temptations deep down. It’s ok if you have not read your Bible in months. It’s ok if you have skeletons in your closet that you have tried so hard to hide from the world. It’s ok if you secretly harbor feelings of jealousy or vengefulness. It happens to the very best of us every now and again, and they can be overcome. 
In this sermon, Pastor Steve peels through the layers of smoke and mirrors and gets to the core of the issue. If you are ready for an ultimate session of self-discovery. If you have been confined in a box and truly want to experience the freedom of being an authentic Christian.
