Throughout the Fall, Mike will be preaching lessons in support of our Wednesday night study on Spiritual Disciplines.
When the end result of hard work is perfectly clear to you now, does it impact your intensity or commitment to that work? Said differently, does purpose impact one’s focus on practice or training?
Godliness, Paul says in his letter to Timothy, results from training: “Train yourself to be be godly” (1 Timothy 4:7 NIV), he says to Timothy.
In this lesson, Mike introduces the concept of spiritual training through practice and discipline.
“But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, and gentleness.”
1 Timothy 6:11 (NIV)
