5 monsters we need to ride down if are to cast less shadow and cast more light

Insecurity about indentity and worth - identity becomes dependant on performing some external role.... identity only found in that we are Children of God.

Belief that the univese is a battleground - fear of losing a fight... universe is working together for good
Functional atheism - belief that ultimate resonsibility for everything rests with us.... we are asked only to do what we are able and we should trust the rest to others.
