What is a Spiritual Practice
As we explore the liberating message of 1 John, we’ve prepared weekly practices to help deepen your relationship with Jesus and enable you experience more of the freedom He offers. These practices will encourage you to engage spiritually with topics from our “How to Unburden Your Life” series.
Each week, we invite you to participate in a new practice that will enrich your understanding of the subject matter discussed. Feel free to engage with these practices at your own pace and to the extent that feels right for you. Our goal is to support you on your journey, and we’re humbled to be by your side.
Remember, there’s no pressure to complete everything or keep up with a specific timeline. Embrace the journey, and let God guide your heart as you dive into these practices and explore the powerful message of unburdening your life through Christ.
