Spiritual Disciplines - Study Week 1


Listen Later

Today I begin discussing the Spiritual discipline of study. Study is another the inward discipline or personal discipline in our series called Spiritual Growth. Study takes intention and time, understanding and interpretation, then finally evaluating what you have studied. Bottom line it takes time. Your first thought is “I don’t have enough time to do what I need already, I can’t add something new.” I understand that. The discipline of study isn’t something that is an “add on” chore. It is something that can be integrated into your life. It is the step you take to think about what you see, hear, or read.

Ponderings

  • What is the first thought that comes to mind when you hear the word “study”?
  • Is it hard for you to listen to someone else’s idea if you already have your own opinion?
  • Are you open to changing your mind when someone makes a good point or when you notice you are already judging them?
  • Where else can you apply the discipline of study?
  • How do you think it would affect you if you read the same verse everyday for a week?
