Introduction and Welcome
Faith Family, here we are - on the precipice of a 40 Day Journey. Every journey has a destination. Every journey has a path. Every journey has directions (ahem, even if we need to stop and ask for them.
This journey's destination? Jesus.
This journey's path? Spiritual Disciplines.
This journey's directions? This devotional guide paired with our sermon series: 40 Days in Pursuit of Jesus.
The point of any spiritual discipline is not to simply get "good" at it, rather, it is through the training as Paul writes (1 Tim. 4:8), there is value for all things in training in Godliness. So, some of these might be familiar. Good. Grow in them. Unfamiliar? Good - a new opportunity to be shaped and refined, drawing nearer to Christ.
We have a variety of voices from a variety of stages and spheres of life contributing to what follows for one purpose: more of Jesus. In the pages that follow, we have a physical expression of one body, many parts. One goal, several disciplines.
The hope and prayer is that you pair this with your daily devotional time from October 13, 2026-November 21, 2026. Or, if you have not prioritized daily time with the LORD before, that you will harness this as an opportunity to begin that holy habit. We will cover six spiritual disciplines:
Sabbath
Prayer
Community
Humility
Frugality
Generosity
Let's dive in together as the journey begins.
More of You, Jesus, more of You. Maranatha.
