Experiencing God

It hit me recently how I experience God. Broken down to its most basic levels, people experience God in four ways: 1) scripture, 2) experience 3) tradition 4) reason. Each one of these has much deeper nuances then it seems, but for the most part this is how things can be broken down. But we all a different order of these things. My order is scripture, reason, experience, tradition. What is your order?

  1. does art fit in there some way? or generally beauty? maybe relationships too?

  2. yeah, they all fits under the experiences section, except relationships because i believe that is a part of all of them. but the experiences section is really broad and all encompassing for those things that don't quite fit tight and nicely in the others.
