Spiritual Practice
A spiritual practice is training for the soul. By building these into your everyday life, you’re sure to strengthen your relationship with God.
At least twice this week, when you feel the pull to reach for your phone, read the Bible instead. Pray for God to give you and our church a deeper hunger for truth.
Memory Verse
For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love. Galatians 5:13 (NLT)
