He then delves into the deeper problem of sin, describing it not merely as bad choices but as a supernatural force that deceives, enslaves, and ultimately fills us with shame. Tatum shares how shame acts as our "personal attendant," convincing us we are failures and that God couldn't possibly love us if He truly knew us. The sermon's turning point comes through Tatum's encounter with a man struggling with same-sex attraction, drug use, and deep shame who had abandoned his faith. When Tatum asked him, "What does the cross tell you?" the man could only respond, "Is he really that good?" This moment revealed how the cross doesn't just deal with our sin but also defeats our shame. Citing passages like Hebrews 12:2 and Colossians 2:13-15, Tatum explains that Jesus "scorned the shame" of the cross and made a "public spectacle" of the powers and authorities. The cross becomes the place where Jesus took our shame so we could receive His honor, demonstrating that God is indeed "really that good." https:\/\/bwaychurch.org ","author_name":"Broadway Church of Christ Sermon Series","author_url":"http:\/\/bwaycofc.libsyn.com","html":"
