Though going to church or joining a small group and listening to Christian music and saying all the right things are all well and good...but they mean absolutely NOTHING unless you have a personal and intimate, ongoing, daily relationship with God. That means you should spend time with Him in personal prayer, you should want to know Who He is by reading and studying His Word, you should be hearing from the Holy Spirit to direct your life and you should be desiring to live in obedience to God's Word and the prompting of the Holy Spirit. Unless you are growing in your relationship with God...all you are doing is going through the motions. And THAT is called "religion"!
