Spiritual Disciplines week 1

Sep 13, 2026  •  Rev. Garrett Hall

What are spiritual disciplines, and why should Christians practice them? In this opening lesson, we look at 1 Timothy 4:7–8 and the purpose behind the disciplines. The goal is not simply to read more, pray more, or become more disciplined—it is to pursue godliness and become more like Christ.


We’ll consider what spiritual disciplines are, why they must be rooted in Scripture and the gospel, and how God uses intentional practices to shape us over time.


“Train yourself for godliness.” — 1 Timothy 4:7
