Sinicism

Shrewd & Innocent

What if the real problem isn’t just cynicism… but the way we think there are only two options?

In Part 2 of this series, Pastor Tom explores the tension between being naive and becoming cynical, and how Jesus offers a completely different way. Drawing from Matthew 10, we’re invited to live with eyes wide open while refusing to let our hearts become hardened.

This message challenges us to examine where cynicism has taken root in our lives and offers a practical path forward:

name it, trace it, and pray it.

Rather than settling for a life that is guarded and closed off, Jesus calls us back to something deeper: a posture that is both wise and pure, grounded and open, honest yet hopeful.
