Some people think of religion as something ethereal, about life-after-death (if there is such a thing), but not applying to real life. They may say they are 'spiritual' but not 'religious,' or may find that everyday life overshadows religion. For others, religion seems hypocritical. In the New Church, we see religion as a way of helping us in our everyday life, a way to help us be happier, more productive people. Religion shouldn't get in the way of life and happiness, it should lead to it! Life can be hard! There are so many things that we each have to face in life, and it's often hard to find answers.

"All religion relates to life." (New Church theology, Doctrine of Life)
