The Insufficiency of Experience

Our experience with God, real and wonderful though it is, does not provide everything we need. It's incomplete; it's not the point. Jesus is always the point.

Sometimes the experience of God can be so wonderful that people start worshiping the experience. We know we've made this mistake when we start looking down on others with different experiences, thinking we're more spiritual because they haven't had our experience.

It's not about the experience. It's always about Jesus.
