Gospel music for · Shame
Shame can follow our own sin or the wrong done to us. Scripture helps us tell the difference. Where we have sinned, Christ calls us to confess and turn to Him. Where we have been harmed, we can seek care without accepting another person’s guilt as our own.

Bring the truth into the light.
God’s mercy does not require us to deny sin, and someone else’s wrongdoing does not become our guilt. These songs point toward Christ, who saves sinners and teaches His people to care for the wounded. Seek forgiveness where you have sinned and support where you have been harmed.
