Tonight we focus on the spiritual discipline of studying Scripture. Our class begins with an exercise called Lectio Divina--Latin for "divine reading--which allows us to slow down and prayerfully consider what God is calling us to know, believe, or do after reading a short passage from the Bible. For the rest of our class, we focus on the spiritual discipline of studying scripture.

Tonight we continue our conversation on the discipline of guidance with a closer study on God's will, and the role that prayerful conversations with other Christians plans in our spiritual journey. We showed a video clip as an illustration that we are linking to as well.
Session 14: Guidance (Part 1)
July 20, 2022 • Bryan Fojtasek
God is leading all of us on a spiritual journey. No matter where we're starting from in our faith, our ultimate goal is to become more like Jesus. But since we're all coming from different places, each of us has a unique path to follow on the way. The discipline of guidance is when we seek God's will by having prayerful conversations with our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Session 13: Worship
July 13, 2022 • Bryan Fojtasek
Worship is a spiritual discipline. It's something we intentionally choose to do to place ourselves in God's presence so that God can transform us into a better reflection of Jesus. Of course, we can go through the external motions of worship without ever really worshipping him in our hearts. In tonight's class we discuss worship from the point of view of our ongoing spiritual formation.
