The Demon of Cool
What is the demon of Cool??
I'm glad you asked. The demon of cool is the temptations that keep you from God and the restrictions you then put on your spiritual growth, when surrendering to the secular view of what is hip. But God wants so much more from you. He wants you to love yourself and be real. The only way to avoid the demon of cool is to be yourself and not let anyone tell you you're not good to enough. Because being cool is so overrated if it stops you from living for what you believe in.
