The Practices of Jesus
THE PRACTICES OF JESUS
We encourage everyone in our church to engage in these practices of Jesus in order to help facilitate a “Rule of Life” that will provide a structure for spiritual formation. We are trying to spend three months practicing many of these practices over the next few years. You will find in the drop-down resources pages that can help you with each practice as you try to implement them in your personal life.
