Part 1: Do I know a God? (Religion vs Spirituality)

In my teens, I became committed to religion. This was the start of a long journey of seeking perfection on faith. Through my own personal struggles, I was led to a break from religion while I strived to “meet” God. Today, my religious practice is nowhere as tightly constructed as it once was; however, I have been fortunate to grow along spiritual lines. This episode is Part 1 of a two part exploration of the topic.

Note- The opening reading is from pg 83 of the book Walking on Water by Anthony De Mello.
