 He has five differences between religion and spirituality. This matters because as humans we weren't created to be religious, we were created to be spiritual. It also matters because the emerging generation have an inclination towards spirituality and the natural resistance to religion. And maybe amongst these five things is why. Number one, religion is chosen for you. Spirituality is chosen by you. Number two, religion can exist separately and apart from people, spirituality cannot.

Spirituality is transformative in nature. And fifth and finally, religion is about compliance and conformity and control. Spirituality is about freedom.
