"Experience" is the ultimate currency today.  Even Christian communities are rediscovering the importance of sharing their feelings, their experiences of life: going beyond the fact of simply living together under the same roof or believing in the same doctrine.  Nowadays, we are invited to make a shift from knowing God to experiencing God.

As we learn to experience God, we discover three things: God is deeply engaged in the process of our becoming fully human; only by letting go of our possesive tendencies can we discover this liberating Presence that invites us to become full and free human beings; and we can experience God and the other in a new way when we are engaged in transforming the world and establishing a more respectful partnership with creation.
