“ Let’s do it together”
We are in a series called “Comfort Crisis,” looking at the ways our culture moves us toward pursuing a comfortable life while God often calls us to what is uncomfortable. Each of our sermons has a spiritual discipline associated with the topic, along with an opportunity to exercise that discipline together as a church community.
We want to hear your stories! What did it look like for you to put these disciplines into practice? How did you see God move in that?
DElayed Gratification (September 20)
Spiritual Discipline: Fasting
Application:
What is Fasting (biblically)? The voluntary act of going without something for a period of time in order to focus on something else. The idea is to create an element of waiting and of longing. I want something that I don’t have, and I allow that longing to turn me to God.
What would it look for you to Fast from something a day this week or the whole week? What would you replace that with?
