Intimacy with the Divine isn’t about joining a church. It’s not about knowing your religion’s doctrines, tenet by tenet. It’s not about knowing your holy writings, backward and forward, in their original language. It’s not about knowing the Divine as a theory or abstraction.

Intimacy with the Divine is more like making love than joining a club, hearing a lecture, or reading a book. There are simply some things we must experience for ourselves.
