Abstract

In this research portfolio, the author will answer the following questions:What place should spiritual disciplines have in the life of a Christian and howdoes the Christian need to be intentional in the practice of them? The author grewup in a Christian home and found Jesus at seventeen years old, and his spiritualgrowth was slow and steady for many years, but then stagnation set in. It was inthis period that he was introduced to spiritual disciplines, which answered hispersonal questions about spiritual growth, as their practice was the path tocontinuous, long-term spiritual growth. Every disciple of Christ has the privilegeof becoming spiritually mature, and when the proper path is taken, growth willhappen. “Speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect themature body of Him who is the head, that is, Christ” (Eph 4:15 NIV). The authoralso stresses how intentionality in the practice of spiritual disciplines is necessaryfor growth, which this paper will demonstrate is accessible and applicable to allChristians.
