Pastor and writer Kevin DeYoung caught my attention this morning with his blog post on false apologies<\/a>\u2013more specifically, apologies for the sins of others. He cites a 1940 article by C.S. Lewis that criticized the younger English generation of that time for its so-called apologies over the nation’s past conduct.<\/p>

Says Lewis:<\/p>

\n

When a man over forty tries to repent the sins of England and to love her enemies, he is attempting something costly; for he was brought up to certain patriotic sentiments which cannot be mortified without a struggle. But an educated man who is now in his twenties usually has no such sentiment to mortify.<\/p>\n\n<\/blockquote>

Lewis thought that the twenty-somethings had their own mistakes to repent of, but instead they were opting to express, in the form of a national apology, their disdain for certain attitudes that they had never shared. That’s not a “costly” thing to do, and not much of an apology.<\/p>

DeYoung sees a similar temptation for today’s younger Christians, a lure to confess every sin committed by the church. “This isn’t to suggest that the church hasn’t gotten things dreadfully wrong,” he says, “but it is to suggest that slavery and the crusades are not the things thirty-something Americans are likely to get wrong today.”<\/p>

This post of DeYoung’s is an excerpt from his upcoming book Why We Love the Church<\/em><\/a>, so I think he’s especially concerned with people that are taking easy shots at the church to gain a gratifying “moral high ground” and, in the process, are learning to despise the body of Christ. I know that I’ve felt myself reaching for that high ground\u2013not in false apologies but in bandwagon mockery of Jesus-is-my-boyfriend worship or gospel-distorting televangelists. <\/p>

Sure, I believe these things are real problems, but why do I really want to criticize them? For the good of the church? Or for my own ego? As Lewis and DeYoung suggest, it probably depends on whether I am already repenting of the plank in my own eye.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
