(Publisher’s Note: Dear readers, I’m excited about this series, “Forgive Me Father, For I Have Sinned”. It’s written from the painful experience of a true brother who has walked the road of sin, shame, and restoration. When “TheWorshipCommunity.Com” launched, Ben Harrell (aka “el ben”) was one of our most active participants. I had the honor of being in the same church with him, sharing a place on staff with him, and calling him a friend. Though not as closely as I could have been, I’ve walked with him through the last year, always calling him a friend and brother. This series has everything to do with worship, with life, with ministry, and our walk with Christ. My hope and prayer is that the series will bring healing to those who have walked in Ben’s shoes, and will bring a warning to those who are playing with the fire of temptation and sin. If this series resonates with you, please comment and join the discussion. If you need prayer, counsel, accountability, or confidential ministry, please contact us and we’ll do our best to direct you to the best, safe place. For all of us have sinned, and fallen short of God’s glory.)
