Avoiding the Trap of Religious Experientialism
Adrenaline junkies will do whatever it takes to chase that thrilling rush of emotion, whether it’s jumping out of a plane or careening down a mountain. In the Christian life, we may be tempted to act the same way and chase spiritual euphoria at any cost. On this edition of Focal Point, Mike Fabarez explains that pursuing the experience will only lead us to a spiritual dead end! God has a much better goal in mind.True courage is rare. And when we see it, we may question our own spiritual resolve when we are confronted or censored. The early church thrived not despite opposition, but through it and Christians today are facing increased attacks to their faith that may cost them something in their lives.
Learn how the courageous stories of men and women of faith can bolster your confidence to stand up when you face opposition.
