Good word. You may have covered this in other posts, but this took me back to the sermons I heard growing up and even was taught to preach where the emphasis is on the pragmatic. The miracle is not left out, but the emphasis is on what you can do in your life to be better. How can I be a better person, husband, friend, Christian? This seems like the same problem of focusing on human agency rather than God's agency. Also, it burdens one's soul because the transformation process depends on the individual rather than God.
