The Purpose of Liberation
Why is spirituality an important part of your life? What do you hope to get out of making religious participation a priority? Perhaps some of us are thinking about the next life more than this one, about what happens after we die. Others may be looking for relief from the guilt and shame they feel. Perhaps still others are hoping for God to "bless" their lives with a family, meaningful work, and material comfort. But what if God's purposes are higher and greater than just what God can accomplish for me in my life? What is the goal of God's powerful loving, saving activity in our lives?
