Saint Athanasius Lutheran Church

I'm not saying you have a demon... but have you ever been driven by something within you, like the man we heard about in the Gospel today? Maybe your anger, which causes you to lash out at others. Or maybe for you it is lust that drives you to do things that are hurtful, shameful, and harmful to yourself and others. What about envy? And if you're like me, you do these things even though you don't want to. So I'm not saying you have a demon... but maybe the sin in us makes us more like this man than we'd care to admit.
