Day 3. How does sin affect you? (2026)

Today is day 3. We are continuing through the section on Salvation with question 3.

3. How does sin affect you?

Sin alienates me from God, my neighbor, God’s good creation, and myself. Apart from Christ, I am hopeless, guilty, lost, helpless, and walking in the way of death. (Genesis 3:14–19; Psalm 38; Isaiah 53:6; 59:1–2; Romans 6:20–23)Our daily collect comes from Proper 14 found on page 618 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
