Christian Living
What is Christian living? In short, “Christian living” is living the life that Jesus wants us to live!
We know that Jesus came to give his followers an abundant life, full of peace, purpose, and the Presence of God. But how do follow Jesus into this world with our whole being: body, mind, spirit, & soul?
In these blog posts, we will consider what it means to embody our faith as followers of Christ. We will study the Bible and Christian theology to understand the meaning and principles of Christian living. Additionally, we will explore wisdom found in ancient yogic teachings in our quest to understand what it means to “abide in Christ.” We will answer the questions: how do we live in this world but not of this world?
Next, we will also learn about spiritual disciplines like Christ-centered yoga, meditation, contemplation, and prayer. Do ancient spiritual practices mix with Christian living?
The following blogs will explore how these spiritual practices can help us be transformed to look more like Christ. How do these practices foster spiritual growth that inspires us to live a more abundant Christian spiritual life? Start reading now to learn more.
