2nd in the "Four Simple Things" series about 2 Chronicles 7:14: "Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and heal their land."

Be it naivety or hypocrisy, Pastor Kendall cites many examples of today's less-than-stellar culture and our less-than-stellar reactions to them. The point he is making is this: We all need to lose our haughtiness and humble ourselves -- because no one is qualified to sit in judgment of another any more than we want to be judged ourselves.

God asks many things of us to restore fellowship with Him in this verse, the first of which is true humility.
