Day 83-Atonement Insights

"An attempt to master this doctrine requires an immersion of all our senses, all our feelings, and all our intellect...It must be felt, not just 'figured'; internalized, not just analyzed...The atonement of Jesus Christ is the most supernal, mind-expanding, passionate doctrine this world will ever know."
Tad Callister, The Infinite Atonement

I just started reading "The Infinite Atonement" by Tad Callister. Tad Callister has served as an Area of the Seventy. The book is excellent, and I highly suggest reading it. I have only read the first chapter and realize I have a long way to go to understanding the Atonement. I also am intellectualizing it more than feeling it. I decide to blog about the Atonement because I had a minimal understanding of this topic. Now, I realize that I not only have a minimal understanding, but I have minimal sense or feeling about the atonement. My goal is to start internalizing the atonement not merely just trying to understand it.
