Shame to Shalom

Everyone has a past and deals with guilt and shame. We've all broken God's commandments and His laws. Shame makes us feel humiliated, unworthy and unacceptable. Shame seeps into our soul because of something that we've done or something that's been done to us. So what do we do with this shame? We go to Galatians and find out that what Christ did is greater than what anyone has done. That's the gospel. Only His grace rescues us from guilt and that haunting sense of shame.
