When I was going through a problem, my psychologist asked me, “Ryan, are you good or bad?”
I replied, “Well I’ve done some good, but I know I’ve done evil…”
“Are you a success or a failure?”
“I sure feel like a failure right now, but to other people’s standards…”
“Are you a sinner or a saint?”
“I…don’t know.”
The answer to all of those questions, he told me, was yes. He then went on to quote Dietrich Bonhoeffer who said something about how when we come together as the body of Christ, we are altogether sinners and saints.
