"Love the sinner, hate your own sin" -Campolo

"... In this video, (7 minute mark)Burke and Marin talk about sin. It’s a politically divisive word, and might seem to give us permission to discount or disconnect with people who we call sinners.

(But isn’t it always easier to fix someone else’s speck that work on our own log!)..."
