I experience a foundational and essential conversion when I align on the side of powerlessness and suffering instead of the side of power and control. “Be transformed by a renewal of your mind,” Paul says (Romans 12:2) but unless I empty myself there is no transformation, no metanoia. Paul taught us (Philippians 2:6-8): “he emptied himself” This is metanoia.
