Deep dives
The Importance of Living Out Resonance
Resonance is not the same thing as obedience. Often, we consume spiritual content that resonates with us without any real change in our lives. It is crucial to go beyond resonance and actually live out our faith in how we parent, work, and show up in the world.
Embracing Creativity and Sharing
Creativity does not require permission or a platform. We can create and share our ideas and talents in various ways, such as designing curriculum, writing books, or starting discipleship programs. Taking charge of our creativity and sharing our work, even if it's not in the spotlight, helps us grow and express our unique gifts.
Being Mindful of What We Consume
As part of spiritual disciplines, it is essential to be aware of what we take in. Just as we nourish our bodies with nutrients, we should be intentional about feeding our souls with wholesome content. This includes being mindful of what we read, watch, and engage with on social media, prioritizing what enriches our spiritual well-being.
The Value of Corporate Worship and Church Community
While acknowledging the potential challenges and abuses within church communities, it is still important to prioritize and pursue participation in a local church. Corporate worship, gathering with fellow believers, and encouraging one another as a community are foundational aspects of our faith and contribute to our spiritual growth and connection with God.
