Spiritual Habits for the Heart
A series of short practical lessons on spiritual disciplines that facilitate connecting with God to reflect the character of Jesus. Disciplines are organized in three sections:
1. Connecting to the mind of Christ by allowing his words to shape my life through journaling, reflection, prayer, Bible reading for wisdom, imagine being there, asking questions, the four columns (text, original meaning, application today, how can I change to be more like Jesus), praying God's promises, listening to God's Word, Why do I believe, sanctuary restoration
2. Connecting to the will of Jesus by choosing His will for me by learning to die, following God's providence, eclipsing worries & fears, what would Jesus do, working with the Holy Spirit, choosing new habits
3. Connecting to the heart of Jesus by pursuing intimacy with Him by longing for Jesus, practising God's presence, hearing God, worship, making moral choices, purity, confession, asking God for things, praying Bible texts, prayer lists, prayer maps
4. Connecting to the work of Jesus by joining him in sacrificial service through adventures in service, building bridges for grace, finding my place to serve, my body matters, my verbal testimony, authentic missionaries, how God prepares us, serving like Jesus.
