Start your New Year with a fresh spiritual mindset! In this episode, Catherine introduces five essential disciplines that form the cornerstone of exponential spiritual growth. Forget the hype around new trends—true transformation begins with mastering the basics. These tried-and-true foundational disciplines of the Christian faith—though they may seem simple and familiar—are the very ones that can propel us forward in our spiritual journey.

They are:

• Prayer: The lifeblood of your spiritual journey. Commit to real, focused daily prayer—it’s the oxygen your soul needs.
• Bible Study: Dive into Scripture daily to nourish your spirit. Whether through book studies, topical exploration, or memorization, God's Word is your guide.
• Giving: Break free from materialism and make eternal investments by giving a portion of your income to God’s work.
• Service: Get involved in your local church. Serving others is both a calling and a training ground for your greater purpose.
• Sacrifice: Experience God’s presence by prioritizing Him above all. Fasting is a particularly powerful practice to clear spiritual roadblocks.

Bonus Discipline: Fasting—a discipline that unclogs your spiritual arteries and enhances your connection with God.

Catherine also shares a sneak peek into upcoming episodes, featuring exciting guest interviews with experts like:

• Dr. Tamara Rosier on navigating ADHD in families
• Dr. Sandra Richter on women in Scripture
• Dr. Alex McFarland on the state of evangelicalism
• Jonathan Cahn on end-time prophecy

Takeaway:
These foundational disciplines are simple yet powerful tools for profound spiritual growth. Prioritize them in your life today, and get ready for monumental breakthroughs in your faith journey!
