Well, it has been a while since I posted last.  A new year has reared its head and invited us to incredible possibilities as a community.  God has visioned us to be a church that thrives not only survives.  With that comes a call to make ourselves ready for action.  Like a finely trained army we need to ready ourselves with practice in order to function like a well oiled machine.  Though we may fight wars of sorts ours is a war on the spiritual battle field.  Our weapons are not guns, bombs, or even swords, but equally as powerful.  However, like an Army sniper practices his skill shooting every day at a single target until he can hit it from 500 yards away, we too must practice our spiritual disciplines with the same intensity.

To be able to hit the mark every time we must practice, practice, and practice for perfection.  That means disciplining ourselves to practice even when we don’t feel like it.  That is what discipline is, pushing through the “not wanting to”; drive, perseverance, persistence, enduring brings us into discipline.  Reading our Bibles, spending time in prayer, fasting, worshiping, and giving back to God, are ways we practice the presence of God.  If we want to go where God is calling us these areas we must master.  Come and join us as we investigate the godly disciplines.
