The problem with religion • Religion is our attempt to reach God on our own terms • Religion is confusing • Religion will rob you • Religion will kill you • Religion will give you false comfort and hope during difficult days
How religion works • You do good things, but not the best things • You are concerned with the good things and not the God things • Form is substituted for function • There is the promise without production • It takes you out from under God’s protection
How to take a vacation from religion • Explode the lie about religion • Ask God to speak to you personally • Start or re-start a personal relationship with God • Receive what God is doing in your life
