Erin, this was a great article. I appreciate your including such a wide range of thoughts from survey respondents.

I wonder if most of our burn out is due to having one foot in the great and spacious judicating arena and the other in the gospel, always comparing (pride) and vying for self centered attention. It's an exhausting life one that I'm guilty of at times. Better if I'd try to look around at the quiet selfless ones - who don't dress for spiritual success and hesitate to toot their own horns. Observe and follow.
As for the comment on our being the McDonalds church, I think Sundays should be a Potluck not a fast food drive through- do your own personal preparation at home and bring some spiritual food to share - otherwise it isn't very nourishing for any one. Just a thought,

Reference: caffeinated drinks: why are we taking this beyond what the brethren (apostles and first presidency) have stated as the Church's position on this issue?
