Andrew Ray sits down with Dr. David Powlison and Cecelia Bernhardt to discuss confronting another with their sins. The discussion stems from a listener’s question: “how can we lovingly help a friend face the reality of his sins? He has a history of sexual unfaithfulness, alcohol abuse, lying, and manipulation.”
