The Chaplain's Series on Spiritual Disciplines

This year our Chaplain's Program will focus on spiritual disciplines.  You might be thinking, "Oh great, disciplines - sounds fun!"  But don't discount the disciplines yet.  It might be just what you need:

As a people, we live fast lives; 
As a people, we acquire much;
As a people, we grow in knowledge;
But we, as a people, are not very deep;
We live on the surface much of the time.

But the spiritual disciplines lead us to someplace different.

Richard Foster writes, "The classical Disciplines of the spiritual life call us to move beyond surface living into the depths.  They invite us to explore the inner caverns of the spiritual realm.  They urge us to be the answer to a hollow world."

Now that's real adventure, I tell you!

The spiritual disciplines are Simplicity - Meditation - Fasting - Prayer - Study - Simplicity - Submission - Service - Confession - Worship - Guidance - Celebration - Solitude.
