an aside..

CS Lewis is, to the best of my experience, peerless in today's Christian Book Industry. That great Self-Help market masquerading as something with greater substance.

Check it..

"[God's] Omnipotence means power to do all that is intrinsically possible, not to do the intrinsically impossible. You may attribute miracles to Him, but not nonsense... meaningless combinations of words do not suddenly acquire meaning simply because we prefix to them the two other words "God can"... It is no more possible for God than for the weakest of His creatures to carry out both of two mutually exclusive alternatives; not because His power meets an obstacle, but because nonsense remains nonsense even when we talk it about God."

So effortless. So masterful..
