" sin is the rebellious attempt to be made whole via unwholesome means.  To nurture a gospel-centered character, we need to trace back the temptation to its seed, then take that need to the cross of Christ.  Only in the gospel can our deepest needs be met.  When our deepest needs are met, our identity is found in Christ, our worth is secured through the cross and our future finds sanctuary in the promises of the Father, then we have a character is gospel-centered instead of self-centered."
