I have always appreciated Paul’s ability to create an anthem that brings people to their feet in worship but keeping the point focused on the Cross. I use his music Sunday after Sunday and it rarely grows old, for the simple fact that his lyrics are about Christ and not cliche.
I’ve only had a chance to sample a few songs of this album. But with those few songs I can say for certain this record does not differ from the theme Paul works to promote in both his recordings and teachings….it’s about Jesus…nothing more and nothing less.
I think both transparency and authenticity are important. However, either one used w/o wisdom and some common sense can end up in disaster!!
I might want to share my story with someone in the effort to be transparent and authentic/real with them. However, they might not be ready for the emotional deluge my story would dump on them. So in my effort to be true and right I might damage them more than help them.
I think there is a difference between authenticity and transparency but they are not mutually exclusive. They need to be used in together and in balance. We just need to keep in mind the maturity of the hearer and be self aware not to blindly “vomit” our internal tidbits.
