The Christian life is a balancing act, not between truth and lies, but between one lie and one overstatement/over-application(?) of the truth.

Thanks for this spot-on post. Everything (or so it seems) in the Christian life needs to be so balanced. I see this in myself being “swallowed up” at times by a popular, celebrity blogger/pastor, who, being so adept at persuasive writing, leads me to a sweeping conclusion without considering a view from within an opposing context. The recent critical discussions on YRR by one such celebrity blogger demonstrates, in my mind, an overreaching stereotype that needs to be balanced.

I have faced similar circumstances and have found myself working hard to bring balance back to my overall teaching after addressing an imbalance and stressing the other side a bit too forcefully. Thanks for the encouragement.
