    Great thought Mike. How do you think we can best get unstuck?

      I subscribe to C. S. Lewis' suggestion of reading old books. This can seem intimidating, but I have often found that the older authors are easier to understand than the modern people who write about them.

      Good thought Mike. I have found new books to be helpful too.

      Certainly wouldn't avoid them. Anything you read gives you new perspectives. Especially if they are not advocating what you always believed.

    I agree Mike. Just read a book by Randy Alcorn titled Heaven. I did not agree with a lot of what he wrote but felt that he gave me something to think about.
