A Reflection on the Tiger Woods Scandal

C.J. Mahaney writes:
Tiger cannot intimidate this enemy like he can Pebble Beach or any of the field of professional golfers. And there is no privacy he can claim from this enemy, regardless of his resolve, his silence, or the name painted on his yacht. It’s likely Tiger only perceives the press hunting him out of a vain “curiosity about public figures.” But Tiger is being hunted and hounded by a far greater foe: the consequences of his sin.

And this story should humble and sober us. It should make us ask: Are there any so-called “secret sins” in my life? Is there anything I have done that I hope nobody discovers? Is there anything right now in my life that I should confess to God and the appropriate individuals?

And this should leave us more amazed by grace because there, but for the grace of God, go I.

Is this all really about a secret sin of Tiger's though?

Have you seen that Mahaney did that was “found out?” This inclludes Mahaney blackmailing Larry Tomczak and hiding that sin for over 10 years. Also it was revealed that a lot of what Mahaney taught he didn’t practice himself.

Sad Mahaney could be throwing stones when he lived in a glass house himself
