As we journey into "deep discipleship," we continue to get our feet wet in exploring ideas, these unconscious assumptions and principles that power and govern us.

Today we wrestle with a key question: Are our churches equipped and ready to help guide us into the latter stages of discipleship? Do we experience this exploration of ideas and desires through our customary Christian institutions?

Does the modern Christian institution recognize that we are integrated creatures living in an integrated world? Our heart, mind, and body are intimately woven together in the context of our soul, and we are "formed" as integrated beings. Is this how the modern church approaches our humanity?

We're digging way beneath the surface today!
