My church did this thing a few weeks ago where you were supposed to take something that's interfering with your ability to experience the joy of the Spirit, write that obstacle down, then nail it to the cross (don't ask). Anyhow, afterward the ministers took up all the anonymous "obstacles" and reviewed them that week; the next week they reported that over 50% of them had to do with either weight or appearance. That's just mind-boggling to me.
