Spiritual  Formation

Since, then, you have been raised with Christ,
set your hearts on things above,
where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.
( Colossians 3:1-2 )

QUESTION:
What is spiritual direction?


QUESTION:     
How can I think and live according to God's will?

By doing spiritual disciplines such as worship, prayer,
study, celebration, solitude, so that our hearts and minds
are shaped by God in accordance with His purpose.

Why is it good to share this very personal process with others?

We are intended to be one another's companions
on this pilgrimage of faith.
