Distraction and superficiality are the primary spiritual problems of our age blocking us from discerning the voice of God. The Psalms remind us that “Deep calls to deep…” (Ps 42:7) and in the Spiritual Disciplines we are called to move beyond surface living to the depths. While the Disciplines earn us nothing in the economy of God (Eph. 2:89) – they place us before God so he can transform us in the inner person to one characterized by peace, joy, and freedom.
Spiritual Disciplines are best learned and practiced in community – even those considered inward disciplines. Join the Discipleship Team as we present the Spiritual Disciplines education series starting September 24, 2025. While some of the Disciplines sound exciting – Celebration, for example, some are intimidating (Fasting, anyone???) or darn right offensive (Submission? YIKES!). Put your preconceived notions aside and prayerfully join us with an open mind. Joy is a keynote of all the Disciplines – moving us from self-interest and fear to an inner spirit freedom and intimate life with God.
Class materials and discussion are based on the book Celebration of Discipline by Richard J. Foster. (Book not necessary for class participation.) Classes stand alone, but participants are strongly encouraged to attend all sessions.
- Class meets Wednesdays 7-8:30p, 9/24/25 – 1/21/26 (with time off for the Holidays).
- No sign up necessary. Bring your Bible and a notebook.
