David Wayne has a great post on daring to be a sinner. I'm firmly convinced that the major problem with the Church today is that we've lost our sense of being forgiven sinners. Either we don't think sin is any big deal, so neither is forgiveness, or we define sin as those things that only apply to outsiders, so then forgiveness isn't something that applies to us. It's the amazing power of knowing yourself to be deeply in need of God's grace, and the wonder of having received it, that gives us the power to be authentic with one another and to carry the light to others.
