Discover the often overlooked yet profoundly transformative power of spiritual practices. In a world that constantly pushes us to do more and be more, we’re turning to the ancient, counter-cultural path of slowing down and drawing closer to God through intentional practices. These disciplines are not about adding more tasks to our already full plates; instead, they invite us to experience a deeper, more sustainable life rooted in our relationship with Christ.
Tune in to learn:
Intentional Connection vs. Mere Activity: How spiritual practices help us prioritize being with God over simply doing more.
Quality vs. Quantity: The importance of being present with God, focusing on the depth of our relationship rather than the number of activities we perform.
Sustainable Growth vs. Relentless Pursuits: How integrating spiritual disciplines into our lives promotes steady, long-term growth in our faith.
Whole-Person Approach: The way these practices nurture every part of our being—mind, body, and spirit—aligning us with God's purposes for a fulfilling life in Christ.

QUOTES
“Superficiality is the curse of our age. The doctrine of instant satisfaction is a primary spiritual problem. The desperate need today is not for a greater number of intelligent people, or gifted people, but for deep people.” Richard Foster
“There was a point where I felt utterly burnt out, and I questioned whether true spiritual transformation was even possible. It wasn’t until I embraced practices like Sabbath, simplicity, and silence that I found the rest my soul desperately needed.” John Mark Comer
"The greatest threat to devotion to Christ is service for Christ." Dallas Willard
