• Traditionalists draw closer to God through rituals, liturgies, symbols, and unchanging Structures. 

• Ascetics prefer to love God in solitude and simplicity. 

• Activists love God through confronting evil, battling injustice, and working to make the world a better place. 

• Caregivers love God by loving others and meeting their needs. 

• Enthusiasts love God through celebration.
