I Got the Power

Shawn McCraney discusses the issues of religious identity and superiority within Mormonism, particularly how members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints often develop an "us versus them" mentality due to the belief in their special status and the authority granted through priesthood practices. He contrasts this with the humble, contrite spirit that he believes Christianity should embody, emphasizing the importance of viewing oneself as unworthy and reliant on God’s grace rather than exhibiting arrogance toward others.

Shawn emphasizes acknowledging and crediting the transformative power of God in our lives while recognizing ourselves as grateful recipients of His grace. He warns against adopting attitudes of excessive self-empowerment in faith, encouraging humility and dependence on God's work.
