But Mary was determined, and she managed to find ...

The suffering that Paul wrote about comes from persecution by unbelievers. The “suffering” that “radical” Christians promote is self-inflicted and based on a misguided interpretation of scripture. When Paul wrote about afflicting his body, he didn’t mean he beat himself with chains. He meant he allows the Spirit to control physical desires and does not succumb to all of them.
