I love that 1st paragraph of READ THE WORD. The Way is not a symbol. We allow false teaching to saturate our churches, we allow other practices to overpower our practices. So in effect, the attempt of Calvinism to over take Lutherans after Luther's death, seems to be succeeding today as people want COWO, ineffective Pastors and leaders, and worthless teaching.
Thank you for this post. It causes me to think and desire more from my teachers and Pastors.
“Outrage cycles, fear triggers, and moral pressure encourage people to suppress discomfort rather than examine it. Research suggesting that emotional suppression gradually erodes memory makes our current winds all the more diabolical.”
I discovered a wonderful organization that recognizes the brain science and Jesus and has helped many families break free of those vicious cycles. Connectedfamilies.org
I took their Discipline that Connects course that is based off their 4 core principles:
Foundation: you are safe with me. Ephesians 1:3
Connect: you are loved no matter what. Malachi 4:6, Luke 1:17
Coach: you are called and capable. Ephesians 6:4
Correct: you are responsible for your actions. Galatians 6:1

I’m almost always impressed at your abilities to not only connect the dots but to articulate them in a way that is easily received and digested.
This sparked recognition :

Thank you, brother. This explains as great deal, and I love that the answer is Holy Scripture.
