This was a tough one. Probably the most complicated question yet, and one I've spent a lot of time wrestling with. It's a tricky balance, to try to name spiritual realities in a way that is insightful and fresh, while also being rooted and faithful.

Not sure I nailed the balance, but I really gave it my all.

And I hope it helps translate the ancient concept of "the satan" into language that resonates.

Also: While I didn't see it explicitly in the video, I do what to be clear that good therapy and good medication can be tools that help us grow in our spiritual life. All is connected.

So go to therapy. Get meds if you need them. Love God. Love others. Love yourself. Set rhythms. Pray.

The Adversary ain't got nothing on all that goodness.

Get your bath bombs and epson salts ready... or video-games and greasy pizza. Self-care is having a real moment and it's great.

The ability to name our interior realities is a tremendous gift and something to celebrate.

But this language is new to us, and at times a little sloppy.

So just what is self-care? And are we ever just being plain self-ish?
