Good People Behaving Badly: Cautionary Tales To Helps Us Avoid Costly Mistakes

A cautionary tale is a story that serves as a warning to others. Fairy tales contain cautionary elements. Pinocchio warns against lying, and Little Red Riding Hood teaches children to be careful when encountering strangers. Our daily news feeds deliver an endless stream of cautionary tales, stories covering everything from economic mismanagement to exposés about moral decline and failure.Here's our dilemma: Humans are slow learners, and adjusting our course to steer clear of danger is challenging. No matter how devastating the outcome of previous bad choices, we tend to be repeat offenders. We ignore the warning signs and build our houses closer and closer to the cliff.The Bible is packed with stories that capture men and women at their best and worst. It contains true-story cautionary tales that place God's presence, power, and grace in the midst of it all. No one intentionally auditions for a starring role in a cautionary tale. We typically stumble into it or stubbornly walk down a path while ignoring the warning signs.In these eight sessions, we'll look at a collection of cautionary tales to help us avoid making the same costly mistakes.
