Tim Kennell continued his series on the “Invisible Man.”  He pointed to Adam who was hiding – trying to make himself invisible to God because he had disobeyed God – sinned – by eating of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

He asked the question, “Are men hiding from God and one another because of sin in our lives?”  Hiding does not have to take place behind a tree or in a closet; we can seek to hide by refusing Christian fellowship, by not confessing our sins to one another or by pretending “Everything’s all right, thank you.”  Confession is a key for our Christian life – confession to our Father (1 John 1:9) and to one another (James 5:16).

Tim also questioned the reluctance of men to take leadership roles in our church and be a part of small groups.  Are we holding back because we have sin in our lives?

In closing, we asked the question, “What platform do we men have for confessing our sins to one another?”  This is an area for further discussion and prayer.

We had one special guest at the breakfast, Howard Cooper, pastor of Pine Grove Baptist Church on Worsham Road.
