Rule of Life: Part 2 (ft. Gavin Bennett) | Unforced Rhythms of Grace E12
John Mark Comer Teachings
Living Out a Rule of Life with Discernment and Caution
Living out a rule of life requires discernment tailored to each individual as the right practice at the wrong time can lead us away from God. Rushing into prescriptive spiritual formation can turn us into Pharisees, like Paul before his conversion, driven by rules devoid of love. Temptations to watch for include control, as a rule of life is about freedom through submission, not order through control. Busyness is another common temptation, but a rule of life should not add to our busyness. Tackling these temptations involves inviting God to work in us, taking time to explore our needs, engaging in practices that challenge us, and seeking support from mentors or spiritual directors.
