Spiritual disciplines are practices that help shape us into the image of Christ. They provide a way in which we can draw closer to God and discover new things about our relationship with the Divine. Practices such as Bible
study, prayer, fasting and spiritual direction are common disciplines use over the centuries to help believers go deeper in their faith.
Over the next several weeks we will look at some of the common practices that have been used. You are encouraged to try them out. Some will fit your personality and feel like an old friend. Some may seem a little foreign and not be a perfect fit. Take chance and try them out – who knows – you may just find a new to deepen your faith,

I need to pray for discipline to practice spiritual discipline! I have had the most success in this area during Lent when I make a real effort toward spiritual discipline and it is very rewarding. In the past I have fasted, journaled, rewritten scripture as prayer and read daily devotionals. Looking forward to learning more. : ) Missy
