First, they [apprentices of Jesus] are learning to understand and do the things Jesus gave us specific commandments and teachings about...Second...how would Jesus lead our lives if he were in our place?
God has been putting people, and events that cause me to use my strengths and gifts to do his will. The most important thing was he gave me the courage to get a Mentor & a coach to put my priorities and strengths to work where I and everyone around me benefit from them. I feel that is the making of a good Apprentice!!!!!!!!!
Welcome to our online discussion of Dallas Willard and Jan Johnson's Renovation of the Heart in Daily Practice: Experiments in Spiritual Transformation.
Each day, Monday-Friday, I will post the title of that day's chapter and maybe an excerpt from the chapter. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, will be to read that day's selection from the book then click on the comment link and add your $.02 to the conversation. If you are a highlighter maybe just share what you highlighted and why you highlighted it. Maybe something really resonated with you as you tackled that day's experiment, share that with us. Maybe, as happened with me, the first time I read the book, God will reveal something to you.
Read the comments that others leave, respond to each other, ask for clarification, let someone know you connected with a comment they left.
My hope is that working through this book together we will get much more out of it, we might not only grow in Christlikeness but grow closer to each other.
If you have any technical difficulties please email me at tkay3atcharterdotnet.
