There's not much point in spiritual practices if you don't believe in some truth behind them. Instead of focusing on practices, focus on finding truth (I believe it can be found about God). Truth will lead to practices.

In many religious traditions it is in the practices that you experience the divine. In many religious traditions it is what you do, not what you believe that matters. These concepts are very foreign if you come from a reform era Christian tradition where Paul's ideas have precedence.

I put the wide range of religion understanding in my "God has a sense of humour" folder. (I infer from that, that we should too) :)
