Every person should avoid a shallow consumer mentality faith for these reasons:

1. The Jesus you need emphasizes spiritual over physical, inner life over outer life.
2. The Jesus you need requires total commitment not shallow curiosity.
3. The Jesus you need demands your trust even when it's difficult to understand.

Jesus’ encounter with the woman in the well in John 4 shows us two things. Jesus wants to meet with us at:

• The well of our loneliness
• The well of our ignorance
• The well of our guilt and shame

Every person should throw out self-righteous religious attitudes for these reasons:

1. People’s faces matter more than holy places.
2. Pursuing God matters more than pursuing the stuff of God.
3. Loving people matters more than looking perfect.
