Good Guilt - A Conversation with Kelly McCuaig

American Christians have a problem: We don't have a right approach to guilt, shame, grief, confession, or repentance. We want all the pleasant, sweet stuff. We shirk the hard work of sanctification, starting at the very beginning of faith. We need to reclaim foundational unpleasant practices rather than continuing to build upon the false foundation of sugar.

But we don't magically know how to do that. It takes people in this generation doing the hard work of connecting us to those previous generations of Christians who knew how to activate these many scriptures around atonement for guilt. Ideally, all clergy can do this, but very few really can. We need leaders to painstakingly make the case that we have largely jettisoned something essential, equipping us to reclaim such life-giving practices.

In this conversation, Kelly McCuaig talks about his new book, "Good Guilt," in which he does exactly what is required for this present moment. We talk about how fraught our general situation is, what the scriptures say about confession of sin, how the church should be centered around these practices, and important things to meditate upon if we wish to reclaim the form and power of righteousness.
