Two different Jesus characters?

I'm just curious....in what ways are the "Jesus you know personally" and the "Jesus in the scriptures" different? why do you say they don't connect?

When I say they don’t connect I don’t mean that they are two different people to me. Instead, I am saying that the Jesus that I see in scripture is not what I expect from the Jesus that I spend time with today. I don’t expect the things that Jesus did then to be done now. It’s not even because I don’t believe they can be done now, rather I don’t expect them to be done now. I am trying to change this in my life. Let’s expect more for He wants to do those things in this world.
