Yeah, so I think the very first part is you have to become part of something and submit yourself to something bigger than yourself.

So in my case, obviously, that's the church.

Because again, you're not just an individual out there.

Your brain is not just closed in this box and you're just doing your own thing.

you're participating in these spiritual realities, whether you like to or not, right?

And so you have to submit yourself to something, to being transformed by something.

And that involves becoming part of a community, right?

Sharing bonds with other people.

That community brings accountability.

It brings a change of life because you can't live a life in isolation.

Aristotle said, for someone to live alone, they have to be either a beast or a god.

So you have to find this life in community.

As I was talking about, you find this transformation through participating in what God is doing in the world.

Well, God is loving someone

I have to be with that person and love them, right?

God is having compassion.

I have to be with that person, have compassion for them, and be kind for them.

It's not something you can practice off by yourself.

Definitely not something you can practice on the internet, right?

And so you need to become a part of that.
