Summary
Most people like to think of themselves as a “pretty good person.” But Pastor J.D. is challenging that notion as he continues our study in Genesis. He’s showing that, if we’re honest with ourselves, we know we’re not as good as we should be. So why is that, and what can we do about it? It’s part of our series called, The Whole Story.

| 0:00.0 | Today on Summit Life, Pastor J.D. Greer talks about the difference between a mistake and sin. |
| 0:05.7 | What do you call a person who plans out their mistakes and then carries them out over and |
| 0:09.9 | over and then lies about it to everyone? A serial mistakeer? Is that what you call them? |
| 0:15.2 | We have to have a better word, folks, and that's where the Bible offers, I believe, a better |
| 0:19.0 | explanation. It's going to explain that there is a disease that has corrupted all of us, |
| 0:23.5 | a disease that has absolutely destroyed our lives, |
| 0:27.4 | and you're going to see the outbreak of that disease in Genesis 3. |
| 0:45.2 | Thanks for joining us today on Summit Life with Pastor J.D. Greer. I'm your host, Molly Bidivich. |
| 0:51.0 | Let me ask you, do you see yourself as a pretty good person? Sure, you make mistakes, but your heart's in the right place, right? Well, today, Pastor J.D. challenges that idea. |

| 1:31.5 | Whether you embrace Christian faith or not, we understand that something is not right with the world. |
| 1:37.7 | A lot of times it's easy to see that in other people, but in our more reflective moments, we have to acknowledge, if we're honest, |
| 1:45.5 | that there's a problem in our own hearts also. Do you ever have one of those moments where |
| 1:50.5 | in the heat of some moment, something slips out of your mouth that totally embarrasses you? |
| 1:55.2 | Maybe it's an outburst of anger or you say something about somebody or to somebody or you verbalize some desire that you have |
| 2:02.9 | and later you feel bad about it. So what do you do? You go back to whoever you said it to and you |
