What's the Difference Between Formation and Counter Formation?

Many deep streams of church tradition and spiritual wisdom meet at the person of Jon Tyson - John Mark's close friend, who he acclaims as “one of the best living preachers [he] knows.” Jon is leading a community of people at Church of the City New York to live counter-formatively for Jesus in one of the world’s most progressive, individualistic cities. Join the two of them for a conversation on the key stages of spiritual formation, the threat of self as we follow Jesus, why the onus for discipleship must be on the family & more.

If you haven’t heard, John Mark is also launching a new ministry this Fall called Practicing the Way.  Through Practicing the Way, John Mark will create beautiful spiritual formation resources and experiences to help you and your church be with Jesus, become like Jesus and to do what he did. To join The Circle, become a pilot church or learn more today, head to practicingtheway.org
