Evangelicals don't understand that they must be Baptized of the Water and the Spirit, and be perfectly clean, to enter Heaven. They think Catholic Christians are wrong in everything. I tell them we are the original Christians going all the way back to St Peter (when Jesus, Himself, gave him the Keys the Kingdom - our first Pope). I ask them who started their church. I'm thankful to be in the One True Church of Jesus Christ, Himself - the Catholic Church. +JMJ+
Surrendering all is the key. Unfortunately, most people view surrender in a piecemeal way by attempting to surrender one thing at a time. In Scripture, humility toward God is defined as casting all of our care on God in order to be exalted by Him (cf. 1Peter 5:5-7; Philippians 4:6-7). This actually simplifies the process.
Great reflection. By the way I just finished reading your book Knight, Monk, King, Prophet, and really enjoyed it.
Love to hear that Jonathon, thank you for reading it! God bless you brother

Amen! Powerfully and wonderfully said!
Thank you!!
“The wind blows where it wills”…perhaps the best way to describe the Holy Spirit.
God Bless you 🙏
You too brother!
We Christians, not Us Christians.
