In what could be symptomatic of the aforementioned fog, found myself quite overwhelmed yesterday with some of the reading for officer training. It's heady stuff on sanctification that leads me to question what the warp and woof of the Christian life should look like. Some of my reaction is likely rooted in a desire to hold onto my old idols and sins; some of it (now that I've stepped back and have some perspective) is that, after a measured dose, the material is too disconnected from any real context of individual and community life to be especially helpful. Regardless, it seems like I'd do well to spend more time with it later.
