Ruth names it – this is the most convicting part of the book for any of us who are Christians – especially for Christian leaders. Steve and Ruth have different reasons it is difficult to acknowledge their religious false self. If anyone thought we were done with the attributes of the false self in the last episode be warned – Mulholland brings up the list again. There is no doubt, our religious false is very dangerous and it is alive and well in all of us. Ruth ends with sharing Mulholland's penetrating questions that conclude chapter 3.

10 years ago I became aware of my false self (flesh). Relinquishment of "my" idols had begun 6 years prior, without the language. Talk about layers of an onion! Mulholland has been used by God to rip open the skin of my dragon. I had no idea. I see my ugly flesh (and USDA grade A flesh) everywhere right now. Im sure the pain will give way to sweet surrender. In the mean time, thank you for your companionship along the way. I long for community with whom to unpack this experience.
