Sharpening Our Spiritual Edge

“If I had six hours to chop down a tree, I’d spend the first four hours sharpening my blade.” Abraham Lincoln

Your life feeling a bit rough around the edges?  Is your spiritual life feeling a bit dull?  Then join us for 5 weeks of “Sharpening Our Spiritual Edge” Sundays at 9:30am from February 21st – March 20th.  Each week Pastor Kristen will explore another way to “Sharpen Our Spirit” though a specific spiritual discipline, giving you the tools to transform the rough and dull parts of your life!

Week 1 – Feb 21 – Sharpening Ourselves Through Prayer

What does prayer do?  Are we just talking to ourselves?  After all, God knows our hearts and knows what we need, so why do we need to pray? Find out why prayer is important, powerful and spiritually transformational.

Week 2 – Feb 28 – Sharpening Ourselves Through Scripture

How does a book written 2000 years ago have relevance for me today?  Where do I even begin?  Find out how God still speaks to us through the practice of the reading the bible, and how that can transform your life.

Week 3 – March 6 – Sharpening Ourselves Through the Practice of Sabbath

What exactly is Sabbath?  Does it mean Sunday mornings?  Can it mean just being away from it all and resting?  Find out how practicing intentional, meaningful Sabbath can make your week better and more productive.

Week 4 – March 13 – Sharpening Ourselves Through Sacrifice

What does sacrifice have to do with growing?  Who decides what I’m supposed to sacrifice and why?  Find out how sacrificing the right things for the right reasons brings joy.

Week 5 – March 20 – Sharpening Ourselves Through Fellowship with Others

Can’t my faith be private?  Why do I need Christian community?  Find out why God created us to be in connection with others and how this connection expands God’s power exponentially.
