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.

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)

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 12: Confession (Part 2)
July 6, 2022 • Bryan Fojtasek
Last week, we began a discussion about the spiritual discipline of confession. Tonight we continue that conversation with an in-depth look at a few prayers of confession in the Bible: Daniel's prayer in Daniel 9, David's prayer in Psalm 51, and Ezra's prayer in Ezra 9-10. These prayers give us an example we can follow when we talk to God and others about the sin in our life. Here's a few of the things we highlighted in these prayers: 1. An attitude of humility. 2. A clear admission of wrongdoing--for oneself and the community. 3. A recognition that discipline is warranted. 4. An appeal to God's love and mercy. 5. A pledge to live a transformed life.
