Why is Amazon so relevant and successful and popular today while religion is not? Well, Amazon is quick. We seem to like quick. Any satisfaction with religion or other spiritual formation paths are often abstract and slow. You have to work at it, and the “it” is not always obvious. Try Recovery Programs or a Catholic mass. Spirituality takes patience. It gestates. No patience needed for an Amazon delivery. To enter a recovery program when you are jobless is not so bad. You have time, which is just what you need. But spirituality is meant to be for a lifetime. Consumer products, not so much.

Instant gratification can buy lots of clutter where spirituality can set me free. I'll take the daily work over instant satisfaction that will be donated later.
