Finding our way back to God and the church is a difficult road. Sin separates us from God and may bring church discipline. We may find ourselves confused or bitter about our experience, and distant from the brotherhood. We may feel hurt, betrayed, or misunderstood by the people around us.
Our God is a loving God. He forgives sinners who come to Christ and confess their sins. The church also forgives and restores the penitent sinner. Regardless of the seriousness of our sin, there is healing and restoration. There is a way back to God and the church. The journey is often difficult and frustrating, but it is well worth the effort!
