Over the summer I was approached by one of the ministers at my church to help them write some curriculum based on the spiritual disciplines. The idea was to create a week’s worth of study so that everyone (teen to adult) could have a basic idea of the different disciplines and could participate in living that discipline for a week. Out of all the spiritual disciplines, the leadership chose enough for 7 weeks of congregational study. That means that they combined some or tweaked some to fit within the week timeframe. I was assigned the discipline of Study and Meditation. I finished writing my week back in August but the study was not introduced to the congregation until this morning. Study and Meditation ended up being week one. I have created a blog for our church to use over the next 7 weeks to interact with and to take the studies into a realm of community. I believe that this will be a time a growth and renewal for our church. It is very exciting.

I’ll post this week’s study here. You can also join us at Seeking the Face of God and participate in the study with us.. I hope that you too may experience spiritual growth and encouragement through this study. Please be praying for this effort. If you have time, stop by the blog and give encouragement to the others who are involved in this study as well.

Thanks.
