Life is not meant to be lived as a spectator sport, watching from the sidelines as God works in the world around us. True spiritual growth happens when we step onto the field—when our hearts, minds, and bodies willingly engage with what God is already doing.

Participation is the beautiful practice of showing up with intention, bringing our whole selves—gifts, talents, struggles, and all—into partnership with God's ongoing work. It's about discovering the joy of recognizing where God is moving in your daily life and saying a simple 'yes' to joining Him.

Whether it's offering encouragement to a coworker, using your unique abilities to serve others, or simply being fully present in conversations, participation transforms ordinary moments into sacred opportunities.

You don't need to be perfect or have it all figured out—God simply invites you to bring yourself, as you are, and watch how He multiplies your willingness into something beautiful.

The Meta-Practice of Participation is about recognizing the sacred opportunities already woven into your daily life and discovering the joy of bringing your heart, mind, and body into partnership with what God is doing around you.
