Principles that Govern the Spiritual Disciplines Practice Creates the Trained State Why do we practice anything? Relationship between practice and spiritual training Tragedy of “undisciplined disciples” Maturity results from constant use

Principles that Govern the Spiritual Disciplines Perseverance Makes Transformation a Reality Realizing full potential requires consistent training Spiritual disciplines can make holiness natural Paul tells us not to give up (Gal 6:9) Training is different than just trying

Principles that Govern the Spiritual Disciplines Disciplines must be properly practiced Careful not to abuse disciplines, without abandoning them Perspective when viewed as “means of grace”

Exercising the Seven Primary Spiritual Disciplines Time with the Word of God Scripture Memory Fellowship Giving Prayer Fasting Public Worship
