As our plans for this year’s Spiritual Retreat take shape, I can’t help but wonder what the idea of Spiritual Disciplines or Holy Habits means to you. We live in such a complex world right? The pace increasing every day. So why would we want to add more commitments to our already overly-committed minds and bodies?
Might I suggest that it’s all about our spirits. That aspect of our beings likely to be taking the greatest hit. Unless we are committed to doing those things that grow our relationships with Jesus Christ, then the reality is we will never experience the joy and happiness, the peace and love that He promises to give (1 Timothy 4:7b-8).
But it needn’t be complicated. If studying your Bible has felt as tedious as filing a tax return as I once heard it said, or your prayer life as wearisome as trying to understand your phone bill, stop, and take a deep breath, at Crosslands Youth and Convention Centre, September 7-9, and together we will learn the simplicity of Christian living! What fun! For more information, contact Sue.
