Hi Shawn! I loved this article. Last night just for fun I pulled up an old Elder Wieland recording, and something you said here reminded me of where he said, "I've never preached a sermon on dress reform." Also, the CS Lewis quote! It reminds me of Galatians 3:24 (my interpretation.) I try to check all the boxes and come up short over and over, until I admit that I can't do it myself. At that moment Jesus takes over, and I get 'er done! This is my task-oriented paraphrase. Well, thank you for inviting comments. Take care!

The Gospel invitation has is open to all who realize their complete inability to follow in the steps of Christ. We would to, we want to; but in our failure, we are humbled to recognize our great need of God’s mercy and strength of the Holy Spirit.
