Discipleship
IN THIS LESSON
Spiritual Disciplines
Sanctification is the process of being made holy and set apart for God. Of becoming more Christlike by the power of the Holy Spirit, in both our nature and a commitment to live righteously (John 17:17, Thess. 5:23, Heb. 12:14).
Spiritual Disciplines are the practices and rhythms we practically participate in as Christians to position ourselves for growth by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Walking the middle ground by avoiding the two mistakes of either;
slipping into striving in our own human strength and self-sufficiency, and
slipping into apathetic living by doing nothing at all about our sinful nature.
