520			_aIn Breaking the rules, Fil invites us to explore what happens when good religion turns bad. At that time we are faced with expectations of what it takes to be "right with God"--whether it is the expectations of others, holding up under pressure, fixing what's wrong or accomplishing big things for God. When we set aside this false agenda, we find the courage to confess our fears and insecurities. We taste the depths of God's love for us. Here is an opportunity to quit trusting in our own ability to live for God, and simply trust in God instead.
