In today’s culture, the lure of perfectionism is strong. Too many people believe that God will only love them if they succeed, and far too often, when people are at their lowest, they stop attending church because they feel they can’t be perfect enough.
We’re reminded of St. Paul’s words when he hears from God that, “My strength is sufficient for you,” and “I will boast in my weaknesses so that the power of Christ might dwell in me, because whenever I’m weak, in Christ I’m strong.” The idea that we can be made perfect in imperfection and weakness is so strange to our culture. Join with Bishop Phil LaBelle as he considers what it might look like for us to experience the strength of Christ in our imperfection during the Zimzum Discipleship Teaching Series.
