Sin is the generic word for what is wrong with us and what is wrong with the world. But exposing and naming sin is not at the center of life lived to the glory of God. Muckraking is not gospel work. Witch-hunting is not gospel work. Shaming the outcast is not gospel work. Forgiving sin is gospel work.
Eugene Peterson Tell It Slant pp. 185-6
