Summary
This document appears to be a page (114) from a sociological or anthropological book/study regarding experiential evangelical Christianity, specifically focusing on the concept of 'discernment' and how congregants interpret inner thoughts or coincidences as the voice of God. It contains anecdotes about daily life decisions and church interactions. The footer 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021360' indicates this page was included in a document production for the House Oversight Committee, likely as part of a larger cache of evidence or seized materials related to an investigation (potentially the Epstein case given the prompt context, though the text itself is unrelated to criminal activity).
