Working in inner city and urban parishes tends to demand a simplified approach to spiritual life, hence ‘The Big Four of Discipleship’ or ‘The 4 Ws’\r\n\r\nBut sometimes more nuance is required, so this morning I jotted down these 10 disciplines I’m trying to build into my life. The are – in no particular order -\r\n
- \r\n
- reading scripture
- prayer
- experiencing solitutude
- reading books
- observing a sabbath rest
- worship – by which I mean songs and hymns
- fitness
- memorising scriptures
- helping others
- giving to others.
