    The Spirituality Trap

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Feb 24, 2023
     | 1,285 views

    We have a tendency to see the shining mountaintop moments or the depths of despair as being the most spiritually significant. But genuine spirituality surfaces - and matures - in the daily decision to forgive, to tell the truth, to resist a temptation or to hold our tongues.

    My mom tells me that when we were little she could dress my sister and me up for church in starched white petticoats and send us out to play in the yard until time to leave for church and be absolutely certain that we wouldn’t have a spot on us. We LOVED to dress up. There was no way we were going ...read more

     | 668 views

    In 'Growing in Spirituality', we explore John 15:1-5 where Jesus outlines the process of spiritual growth. This involves understanding God as the gardener, Jesus as the true vine, and ourselves as the branches.

    Salvation through faith in Christ has two dimensions: the assurance of eternal life in heaven and the call to live for God on earth. While we often hear that we should live for God, we are rarely taught how to do it. In John 15:1-11, Jesus provides a clear explanation of the process of spiritual ...read more
